Jovani 159181 cocktail dress

* Dark colors are slimming on any body type.
* Don't go too short on the length. A dress that hits right at or slightly above the knees is appropriate for all types of environments.
* When you try the dress on, walk, sit and dance around to make sure it's comfortable.
* Go from day to night in a flash: replace a canvas tote, denim jacket and sandals with a beaded bag, pashmina shawl and stilettos.
