The ruching having stitch lines at center-front and sides gives it a beautiful drape and also accomodates "a multitude of sins" for those of us who have a few "lumps and bumps" along with our curves. Please note, I'm speaking re how the dress would fit me, not you. I claim all the lumps and bump and attribute none to you!
