Babydoll Dresses

Babydoll dresses are defined in the fashion industry to be dresses with empire waists and A-line skirts. They haven't been as popular lately with waistlines falling to accentuate the waist, but these dresses can be just as flattering and classic-looking. Like my article on A-line skirts last week, these dresses have the kind of slimming skirt shape that skims over your thighs to hide them. This type of dress is also awesome because of its empire waist cut, working to hide your stomach. And, as the name implies, babydoll dresses are very cute and sweet-looking, hinting at innocence. You can play up that concept by wearing dresses like the Old Navy and H&M ones I've chosen here, or select a more grown-up shape like in the Piperlime one. Either way, if you like the flattering cut but dislike the connotation, these dresses are easy to toughen up with some great accessories. Bucked ankle boots are great with shorter hemlines, or pick out summery leather wedges for longer hemlines.
