The hourglass figure has always been highly sought after, but surely with these stars shaping its path, it’s now reached an all-time high!

The Chelsea28 Twist Front Dress is the perfect option for those looking to flaunt a natural hourglass shape.

Designed to gather at the waist, this dress was specifically designed to enhance an ultra-flattering silhouette on just about everyone. Featuring a sleeveless knit material and highlighting a contemporary asymmetrical hem, this dress comes in three sensational shades that include black, burgundy stem and purple potent!

It’s a no-brainer that this crewneck dress is nothing short of a fan-favorite for how flattering it is.

Much to our liking, so many previous buyers had such positive experiences when wearing this ultra-flattering dress. Across the board, many noted how absolutely stunning this silhouette was in person and a handful of reviewers highlighted how much they enjoyed the ultra-thin material (but not too thin to be revealing).

The sleeveless style was also a much-appreciated touch, as well, since so many reviewers loved the opportunity to put their arms (and backs!) on full display. In fact, this was such a fan-favorite because it made this already versatile dress more of a year-round staple. Being a sleeveless design, this dress could easily be transitioned season-to-season by simply adding or subtracting a top coat.

It’s only natural that with such a stylish staple at our fingertips, the black shade would surely become nothing short of our new favorite little black dress.

We love wrap dresses to create that hourglass shape, but this dress proves we can give the illusion of a tinier waist in other ways, too.

Straying from the norm of all those traditional oh-so-tight, body-hugging dresses, this revamped silhouette is nothing short of refreshing! The form-fitting dress fits our form without being overly clingy or bothersome. Featuring an ultra-forgiving front, we love that the strategically placed delicate detail hides and conceals all of those otherwise problematic areas. In fact, we love that with just one dress, we can flaunt our best selves!

In fact, the most important (and alluring) feature about this dress is that it is style-saving since its available in more than one color.

It was noted by several reviewers that this curve-carving dress was the secret to many wardrobes. After opting to buy this stylish silhouette in one color, many went back to buy additional shades. Honestly, we couldn’t love this more. This dress is so transitional that with the simple adding or subjecting of an accessory, it can easily be worn anywhere.

Whether it’s paired to perfection with a blazer and nude pump during the day or edged up with a little black bootie and leather jacket at night, this dress is the perfect foundation for our most stylish moments. Truthfully, it’s the perfect day-t0-night option that can also be work-appropriate. How rare is that! Not only can we wear this during work hours, but it will also famously transition to after-hours, as well!

As we said, the always-flattering black shade is the front-runner for many as their new little black dress, but the other two options are just as sensational. The Burgundy Stem is nothing short of a ravishing wine hue while the Purple Potent is a diluted-grape hue. Honestly, both are striking and unexpected but just as beautiful as we expected. Truthfully, we love that these shades were designed with every woman in mind. One reviewer so brilliantly pointed out that with her olive skin tone, this was the ideal pairing. We love that!

Instead of drooling over our favorite celebrities, let’s go ahead and slip into this dream dress and feel like a star, too!
