Not as A-line as the pictures make it seem!
A-line dresses are flattering on me, and the pictures for this made me think that this would work. Unfortunately, this dress flares out at the worst possible spot for a pear-shape, and has very little going for it already. If you have a very straight body plus at an average bust, you might like it.
