"Ever since I was a teenager, my weight has fluctuated," says Ivory Kalber, 32, who sought treatment for binge eating in her early 20s and now counsels others who struggle with eating disorders. "But I feel much better about my body since I got help. I'm happy living my life at a size 12 or 14." This sunny dress in supple jersey works like magic to downplay extra pounds. Glassman says. "It creates a beautiful waistline, and the off-the-shoulder style emphasizes Ivory's upper half while draping minimizes the lower body." Says Kalber, "I thought this dress would accentuate my hips, but it doesn't. I can just throw it on and go." Dress, Rachel Roy. Earrings, Melinda Maria. Bracelets, Melinda Maria and By/Natalie Frigo.
