LOL! I agree with you, but so many women fall for these styles being pushed on them, no matter how unflattering. Actually pretty funny.
Gosh I wish you could see me because I look great in them! I don't have a butt problem and they are a nice look.

Oh gawd No! I don't look good in these.

I think they look best on very slim gals who aren't curvy, but I don't think they look awful on every woman I've seen who isn't tiny.
I've been very hourglass-shaped since I was a teen. Maybe I could've worn one of those tops when I was smaller, but now that I'm not 110 lbs anymore, I've come to the conclusion that I cannot wear one and look good.

You have the same body shape as my BFF, and yes, the banded tops look good on her. Not so much on my pear-shaped self! On the other hand, I can wear boho type skirts very nicely as I have a defined waist and hips. They don't look good on her at all.
Absolutely...And There You Have It!!!! I am the apple, my best friend a slim pear but still a pear. This is the age old problem for every designer. Some disregard pears which isn't nice and all forget that some women don't have much of a waist. I love the banded bottom, very flattering. Wouldn't it be great if we all looked like Katia?
No, it wouldn't be great if we all looked like Katia; Angelia looks much more healthy.

I'm an hourglass shape & I like to emphasize my smaller waist so the banded look is one I avoid.
And I'm just the opposite - I like to accentuate my narrow body and wide shoulders.
Those are the places I like to "figure flatter."
I have the same build - tall, narrow body and wide shoulders. Banded bottoms look great with my build.

I love this print. I have the orange. It buttons up the front - a bit different than other scarf tops.
