Please, I beg of you - don't choose something with big puffy ingenue sleeves
and a full skirt! Not only is it extremely limiting (not too many figures
look their best in this style) but it certainly is inappropriate for anyone
over the age of 16 or so. Another bad choice is sleeves attire. I'm all for
something classic in a long or 3/4 length sleeve, rounded neck and simple
silhouette, preferably in a dark color.
