However, this drop waist silhouette does not favor all body types. It is mainly for those with longer torsos and smaller hips. They give the wearer more length at the top than at the bottom hence the petite lasses should stay away from this silhouette as they tend to make one’s legs look shorter and this will just make your proportions look unbalanced.

The drop waist dress comes in different styles. The most popular styles include the skirt being A-line, pleated or ruffled. The ruffled skirt tends to accentuate the hips a bit more.
