"this is the best of the lot, Anita. Most of the dresses won't fit your curves."
The stupidity of this statement is mind-boggling. Sofia Vergara and Ivy Doomkitty manage to find dresses that fit their curves, but this is just an excuse for LKH to dress Anita in what sounds like the ugliest and tackiest thing ever. Also, when you're very short and very curvy, short dresses don't always work. A lot of times a short dress makes that body type look fat with short fat legs. What you want to do is emphasize the curves and make your legs look longer. Certain short dress cuts look terrible on short curvy women, as a short and curvy woman myself I have to be careful about what sort of dress cuts I pick (babydolls don't seem to flatter my shape too much).
"but once breasts pass a C cup they're just a real challenge for cocktail dresses."
No, no and no. Again, it all depends on the style and the cut of a dress. I've seen women with double Ds pull of some fantastic cocktail dresses. Again, look at the luscious goddess herself Sofia Vergara.
"The dress is sexy, and blunt. Honey, it's you."
Nope, I remember the description of said dress. It's tacky as all fuck. It's like LKH can't understand how an outfit can be sexy without showing the max amount of skin possible, her understanding of sex appeal is fucking juvenile that it makes my head hurt.
This right here is classy, sexy and a bit racy without going overboard. What Anita wears is fugly and tacky and would barely be suitable for a Halloween costume at frat party.
It's just how Anita is twisting things here by leaving out the existence of the slip to make herself sound more reasonable that's pissing me off.
