I used to hate asymmetrical hemlines until I saw my sister's dress last Saturday
I always thought those uneven skirts and tops looked like someone messed up cutting the fabric. But my sister showed up to a family cookout wearing this olive green dress that was longer in the back and tapered up in the front. It actually made her look taller and she said it hid her hip dips really well. I tried on one of her old tops with a similar cut and it did the same thing for me, balancing out my shoulders. Now I get why designers like that style, it's not lazy, it's about tricking the eye. Has anyone else here changed their mind on a certain cut or pattern after seeing it on a real person?

lol I literally had the same exact realization last year!! But hold up, let me ask you this - when you tried on that top, did it actually feel weird having the fabric hit you at different lengths, or did you get used to it fast? I’m still on the fence about trying one myself because I hate when clothes feel like they’re pulling or bunching up weird, especially around my hips. Did it move okay when you were just standing around or did you have to keep adjusting it? I feel like that’s the real test for me, not just how it looks in a mirror.

My sister literally said the same thing about hip dips and I was floored because I never thought a cut could fix that.
