Why are skater/prom style dresses so unflattering on me???

Is it just me? I think it must be. Just been reading another thread where dresses like this were being recommended but I just looked at them all knowing they'd make me look horrendous. I know this as I bought a similar one a few months ago, absolutely loved it but have only worn it once cos it makes me feel FAT. And no, I don't really have body-image issues, am 5'3" and size 8-10 and I know some shaped do suit me - e.g. skimming shift dresses. I do have a bit of a tum but I would have thought a nipped-in waist would help with that. And skinny legs Maybe I have a huge arse that I'm just not aware of!

Rant over! Just gutted as I keep seeing lots of nice dresses I can't wear!

Whoops!

I find that they look weird on me, as though Im dressing up in little girl clothes. Make me feel as though i look like a bit of a twat.

I couldn't noo. I doubt Gisele would look good in one.
