Rectangular orBanana shaped women tend to have a less defined waist line and upper and lower halves of their bodies are likely to be equal in proportion.

The curvy pear shaped woman hitting the pool this summer needn't feel uncomfortable about wearing a swimsuit. Forget hiding your fuller thighs and hips beneath unflattering, shapeless frocks. Just like the apple shaped body, making the right choices when picking out a suit will ensure that your looking your most fabulous be it by poolside, sandy beach or lounging on a boat and basking in the sun.

For those of you who missed last night's Rip the Runway on BET, you missed a fabulous fashion show including full figure friendly fashions by designer Korto Momolu (Project Runway Season 5 Finalist) and Plus Size designer Monif C whose models were actually true plus size women!
I can't tell you how excited and happy I was to see a fashion show embrace women whose body sizes represent the majority in this country. I wasn't disappointed. These ladies rocked everything from flowing gowns, to sexy swim wear, showing the world that plus sized girls are as sexy and fierce as their thinner counterparts.
It's my hope that other fashion shows and programs, both televised and not, will continue to feature fashions for full figured women and most importantly modeled by plus sized models (not just models above a size 6). There are still so many full figured women who have size acceptance issues that events such as this go a long way towards helping curvy women to recognize how fabulous their bodies are and that there are designers out there who are designing with them in mind.
Thank you Monif C for these fabulous creations and your contribution to those living the Curvy Life Style. Keep doing what you do!
