The figure-hugging column dress is a versatile design that comes in a variety of strapless and backless styles. It's an elegant choice for anyone with broad shoulders, and if you have a slender or athletic build, this style is also particularly striking.
If you're petite it will elongate your figure, and if you're keen to flaunt your curves, the column clings in the right places. However, if there are certain areas you'd rather not accentuate, its clingy design might not be the style for you.
