Amazing designer!!

Hey kids,
So I just wanted to share with y'all this great find (I think....I haven't bought anything....YET *wink wink*).  As I start looking for my senior recital dress (which I know is more than a year away, but nevertheless...) I stumbled upon the label IGIGI.  I have been mostly a Lane Bryant/Dress Barn/Torrid girl for several years, but thorough Lane Bryant I found this label and the dresses are GORGEOUS!  Not only that, the way the website is designed is ingenious.  For each dress there is the "shapestylist" tab which tells you which body type would look best in the dress.  If your not sure which body-type you are, the website will explain and then tell you which dresses would look best.  As if that wasn't enough the website uses plus-size models (thank you) and tells you what body-type they are, what size they're wearing and how tall they are.

I'm very wary of online shopping because you can't try stuff on, you don't know they've altered the clothing to fit the model, how the model is proportioned compared to you and once you order it, generally if it looks okay most women won't go through the hassle of returning it, whereas in the store you have to walk out carrying it and can make good (or, at least, better) judgments.

Here are two gorgeous examples of dresses for my body-type (the "figure eight"):
The "Michelle":

The "Garbo":

If you like what you see, head to THIS amazing website!!

    And remember kids - just because it fits doesn't mean it will necessarily look good.  Always make sure your clothes make you feel as good inside as you look outside (Lord, I hope that makes sense...)

Love love!
