If you have cropped hair, what dresses suit you?

Weird question maybe. Just had hair cut "boy short" and love it, but the clothes that suit me have changed. Slightly boyish clothes work, but my old dresses don't. Any ideas why/what to buy?
I'm late 30s, 5'7'', size 8 but biggish boobs, if that's relevant.

I wear whatever I want and I have a short pixie cut. I'm a short hourglass so a very different shape to you though. Sometimes it's just a case of getting used to your new shape though. If I was as tall and slim as you are I'd wear quite minimal architectural shapes, the kind of thing that COS or ASOS White do. But you could also wear a floaty feminine maxi dress and that would be an interesting contrast.

I know what you mean, I had shoulder length hair and have gone over to a pixie cut.
I'm quite well endowed and a big expanse of neck/chest now looks odd, but a higher round neck or v neck looks OK.

Thanks both - that's helpful.
I've been surprised by how much hairstyle seems to affect how clothes look.
