Sweater dresses are the hardest thing to wear. At 120 pounds and 5'2" I look like a tree trunk in one. That model is about 6' tall and 100 pounds.

This is so funny. I just bought one at the Salvation Army. I am wearing size 8-10 pants, and s,m,l shirts. However, I found a sweater dress in a Size 14-16 Lane Bryant. It looks okay. I bought some boots last week and caved in and bought 5 pair of jeggings (didn't want to wear stretch clothes ever again) then I went to SA for the shirts.

Funny. I don't think anyone looks good in a sweater dress. They are hideous.
