"Hello my name is Gabriela Garzon and I'm an image consultant with G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Coral Gables, Florida. Now when you wear a shorter dress no matter your body type, remember you should be covering your areas. It's o'kay if it is form fitting or a little tight that you can show or camouflage certain parts of your body but basically what you need to do is if you can see the line where it hits on the knee it is just above the knee. You can either wear it just a little above the knee or just on top of the knee. That's the best way to wear short dresses. Now if you are younger meaning younger than in your 20's you can wear things that are a little shorter but as long as it is just, that it hits your longer finger right there where I have my hand, that is as short as you can go, no matter what age you have that is the shortest that you can wear a dress or mini skirt or just any dress. Once again this is Gabbie Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting."
