Jamak's Note: Designed and tailored to fit every shape including pear shapes. This dress features a bodice and skirt joined with a waist band to accomodate not only women who wear the same size on top and bottom but also pear shape women who wear a different size on top and who have a hard time finding shift dresses. In addition the dress is made in several panels for perfect fit and easy alterations. We recommend this dress for every shape.
