This Dress on My Body?

Straight and Narrow

A huge floral splashed with metallic (Blumarine) is challenging to wear, but Latheisha Le-Gree, 27, a receptionist and aspiring fashion designer, pulls it off. The brilliant hues are fantastic with her coloring, and the fitted, high-waisted shape gives her rangy figure more va-va-voom: "I love the way it hugs my body," she says. Ruched elbow-length sleeves mean no worries if arms are not well toned.
