Busty
Busty Body shape is defined by a generous bust with the narrow hip line. This body type has a vast variety of options in terms of dresses to go for. It might be that your waist is not well-defined, so choose a dress that does this, or cinch it in at the waist with a belt. Open up the chest area, defining the bust to create the hourglass shape in the middle.
