I don't know how to love this body.

Skinny with a relatively blocky torso and narrow hips. I wish I had actual curves. And I'm not talking about super full-figured but slim and actually curvy. Think Camila Morrone or Tyla. I'll never have as small of a waist and look as curvy as they do because they have tiny ribcages and a wide pelvis. I don't know how to cope or be happy looking like this. If I get told I look "proportional" or "athletic" one more time I will lose my mind.

Edit: I forgot a lot of you think body positivity is not for skinny women. I'm already tired and feeling awful, please pick fights with someone else. Everyone else though, thank you for the advice and encouragement.

I want to feel beautiful in my wedding dress

I got my wedding dress about a year ago and I absolutely LOVE my dress but I don’t love my body and fitting perfectly into a size 18 when the dress lady didn’t even bother to have me try on the size 10 definitely didn’t help. I’ve heard that that means you picked the wrong dress but I’m wondering if I just need to love my body more. I did make an appointment with a seamstress to see if I can get sleeves or something added to it but I wanted to get some positivity from here too. I love how it fits my bust and everything, I just HATE my shoulders and arms. The dress also has pockets too so that’s a win.

Edit: the more I look at this and the more I think about the last time I put on my dress, it’s less about the overall fit(although I’m not thrilled that I’m a size 18) and more that I’m insecure about my shoulders and arms being so exposed so I’m not sure what to do about that

What fashion language around size actually feels natural and respectful to you?

I’m looking at how fashion brands talk about plus-size bodies and size-inclusive clothing, and I’d really value perspectives from people here.

Some wording is clearly meant to be positive or inclusive, but it can still land awkwardly or make body size feel like the whole point.

What kind of language around size or fit feels natural and respectful to you?

And are there words or phrases that are supposed to sound inclusive but actually come across as forced, patronizing, or make you more self-conscious?

I’m mostly interested in the wording itself rather than specific brands.
