What are flattering dress styles for my body shape?

[MLee]

I'm a little hard to dress (but who isn't, right? lol)
I'm done growing and my measurements are~
height: 5'2" (62 in. or 157 cm.)
weight: 110-112 lbs (50-51 kg)
Bust: 32 1/2"
Waist: 23 1/8"
Hips: 36 1/4"
Because I'm pretty short my pear-shape is way over-emphasized and makes it hard to find clothes that not only fit but flatter my shape, too.
I'd reeeeally appreciate ideas on what types of dresses to wear! I have a formal event coming up in less than a month and left dress-shopping to last minute, like always =P haha oops?
I never know how to find a dress that'll work for my body with no-or-minimal tailoring required.


& btw, I'm not the type that buys into the whole "generic body" that all fashion mags spew out, so I'm not interested in "hiding" any body parts or "highlighting" any others, y'know? I just want to know how to dress my body to look the best it can, as opposed to trying to make it look like something it's not Example being push-up bras. I have a small chest, yeah, but I'm cool with it lol. No point in trying to make something into something it's not. It's how I'm built and I like it

An A-line dress looks would look best on you

well to make ur bust seem a bit larger, try going with a strapless.(no push up bra needed) and because u r a bit shorter, ur gonna wanna go with either a length that is down to your feet or a 3 inches or more above the knee. Anything a little past the knee will make you appear shorter
