Trend to Try: Drop Waist

This trend is showing up everywhere on the runway! Lowered waists on dresses and skirts are a great way to lengthen the torso and give a glamorous retro feel. Very 20’s, don’t you think?

Comon Discuss It..
Dropped waists really only look good on people with boyish figures - any curves, and it makes you look extra wide :S So I’d never wear this trend at all.

Well that’s different. I don’t think my body type would pull it off unfortunately

I don’t really think its very flattering, and it would not suit me.

I think it looks super cool but wouldn’t suit me as I’m already too long in torso! Makes my legs look stumpy smile

Looks good and boho on the model. I wouldn’t wear it though… just because it wouldn’t suit my body type.

I love this dress and personally prefer the lower waist as it suits me better.
