The Art of Dressing Curves: The Best-Kept Secrets of a Fashion Stylist Hardcover – April 19, 2016

I like this book so much that I gave it to my friendS. Real confidence booster.

I'm an avid reader of all things in the fashion industry. I absolutely love this book. Loved that it has current retailers listed and also helpful hints on bra/shapewear items. I already knew my body type and the recommendations that were listed for my style is exactly what I tend to wear. It was just a fun read and I'm going to re-read it often. It boosted my confidence regarding my 'plus' size body!!

I am a 2x. Pretty good basic guide. Author is/was a plus size AND styles plus sized looks, so she is legit in my book. Great read to determine body shape, then recommends the specific shapewear + clothing styles for that type. Never really thought about that I may may need *specific* kinds shapewear, rather than just... I need shapewear. Incorporates measurements into determining your body type instead of just saying, which piece of fruit do you look like so that is a plus (apple, pear?? How do I know?) Also recommends best dress shape for your size, fit n flare vs. sheath, for example. My body type supposedly will look good in a sheath, so went shopping to purchase this plus new bras (also discovered I am wearing the wrong bra size). Tried on a sheath, something I would NEVER have chosen in the past, and BAM, it looks fabulous. Gave it 4 stars because some info is too general, like, "shirt length comes in waist, high hip, or low hip. Select which works best for you." If it was that easy, I would not need to read a book for tips. Is not too preachy about never wear white, horizontal stripes, etc.

This is more than just an indispensable style manual for curvaceous, fashion forward women. It is a celebration of self-love and self-acceptance and a well informed guide on how to look fabulous at any size! I loved it and will refer to it regularly while I build my wardrobe!🥰

Good try. While the content emphasizes fashion for all sizes, all pictures seems to be of models size 14-16. There aren’t any real plus size models in here… in addition the body shape advices are also not completely comprehensive for a plus size.Also: while Shapewear is a necessarily evil sometimes, I’d love to learn how to dress myself without using it!

This is a categorically astounding resource guide to FABULOSITY... Any curvy-goddess that has wondered how and where to get their mojo, please start here.The tutorials and stories from the author, Susan Moses will not only captivate you; you will be led to great heights of FIERCE!Get a copy, STAT!!!! #ThatIsAll #GoJuicyGirls

Great ideas. I have not finished reading it, loaned it to a friend and she liked it andgot good ideas. I now have it back and I will enjoy finishing it.

Enjoyed this book and learned so much. Heading off to purchase shapewear immediately! She does a great job of laying out not only advice but wardrobe essentials too
