What Dress Best Fits Your Body Shape: Rectangle.
By Molly McMenamy

If you fit under the rectangle category, your chest, waist, and hips are most likely similar in size. For this shape, it does not matter how large or small these proportions are, as long as their measurements are alike. The proportions have to be similar in order to create the rectangular appearance. The dress styles that best fit this type vary in stretchiness and length alike. If you wanted to accentuate your chest or stomach, you could wear a tighter dress. On the other hand, if you wanted something more conservative you could try a dress that is looser or more covered. Some of the types that work for your shape best are maxi, column, and wrap dresses. Maxi dresses are long and normally made of light, flowing fabric. This type of dress is often worn during seasons with warm weather. A column dress is more fitted than a maxi, and the fabric drapes straight down to the floor. Column dresses are recommended if you want to wear something with a tighter appearance. The last type is a wrap dress that accentuates your waist more than both maxi and column dresses. It is often cut with a v-shaped neckline as well. The choice is up to you, but the best dress type for your shape equally shows off your proportions.

What Dress Best Fits Your Body Shape: Hourglass.
By Molly McMenamy

If you fit under the hourglass category, you most likely have a large chest, followed by a smaller waist, and a larger hip/lower back area. This body shape is best known for its curves. Dresses that fit the hourglass type the best are tight around the waist and slightly more loose in the chest/hip areas. A few of the dress types that work best for this shape are sheath, bodycon, and peplum. Sheath dresses are often fitted close to the body and are cinched at the waist. These dresses aren't as skintight as the other two types but they don't hang off your body either. Bodycon dresses are reccomended if you have an hourglass figure because they accentuate each curve you have. Peplum dresses are quite similar to bodycon dresses but they come with a frilled waist. Any dress that comfortably allows you to breathe while exhibiting your curves is a great option for your shape. In the next piece, we will go in-depth on the rectangle body shape.

What Dress Best Fits Your Body Shape: Pear.
By Molly McMenamy

The first body shape we're addressing is pear. If you fit under the pear category, you most likely have a smaller chest/upper stomach, and a wider waist/lower back. This body shape is best known for its triangular appearance. Dresses that best fit the pear shape have a tight top and loose bottom. A few of the dress styles that work best for this body shape are A-line, empire, and tea length. An A-line dress has a triangular silhouette and widens out at the hips. An empire dress has a fitted top that often creates contrast from its flowing bottom skirt. A tea-length dress is similar to the previously mentioned types but it cuts off below the knee and above the ankle. These dresses tend to draw more attention to the upper parts of the body like the chest. If you fit in this category you could also wear tight dresses if you want to accentuate your upper waist. It ultimately depends on what you feel confident in. In the next piece, we will go in-depth on the hourglass body shape.

Le Femme Boutique's First Ever Bridal Show
By Molly McMenamy 

For the staff and frequent shoppers of Le Femme Boutique, this past June 4th was a very important day. The long-awaited bridal show took place that afternoon at 2 p.m. All of the staff members were there to help the show run smoothly. "We started preparing about a month ago, so its nice to see things start to come together," Yelitza, one of the employees, stated. Before the show, the audience members each recieved a glass of champagne and a ticket to win various prizes.  

Backstage, in the dressing area, the models were getting zipped into their dresses. The staff members were adding the final touches to the looks. Many of the models had tiaras or veils placed on their heads, and each one wore jewelry that matched their gowns.

Alondra wearing Number thirteen, a sparkling, ivory DaVinci wedding gown.


Taylor wearing Number fourteen, a rosewater Christina Wu bridesmaid dress. This dress was certainly a fan-favorite. "Oooh, pockets!" a woman in the audience exclaimed.

After all of the dresses were presented, the models walked down the runway together, and the audience cheered in adoration.
Overall, the show was enjoyed by everyone who participated. The audience members quickly spread throughout the store to look at the many dresses the boutique had to offer. In the dressing area, the models congratulated each other on a job well done. When asked how she felt the show went, Jane stated "It was a tremendous success! We had a great turnout, and a lot of interest in our dresses. The audience seems to like our DaVinci gowns the most because of how quickly they can be delivered."
