Coolest Feel Looks White-Hot

If you’re a full-figured women, wear white this summer for a cool feel that looks hot.

This white linen column dress has a narrow silhouette with its sleeveless style and longer, lower calf length. Yet the button front and white embroidery trim at the top flatter a full figure.

This dress can be worn relaxed, with sandals and a sun hat, or dressy with elegantly styled jewelry, a silk scarf or chiffon shawl. Just keep your hose natural and carry a purse in proportion to your size and outfit.
