In case you haven't noticed, fashionistas come in all shapes and sizes, and so does Jovani Fashions! From prom dresses, evening dresses, cocktail dresses, and couture dresses, Jovani dresses range from size 0 to 24, and can even be special ordered up to a size 32!

 If you're that voluptuous fashionista in search of that special dress, Jovani fashions will make finding it a lot easier for you! Here are some really chic styles that will specifically work for you!








Empire Waistlines

For the pear shaped woman, a dress with an empire waistline works great for you. With the high waistline and flowy bottom, this style will provide you with an illusion that will camouflage your problem areas. Issues with undergarments, are no longer a factor. A simple bra is all that's needed, which will ultimately enhance your busts. Dresses with an empire waistline may just be one of the most flattering styles for any body type, providing you with both comfort, class, and style!

Reinvent Yourself!

When it comes to fashion, reinventing yourself is probably one of the best things you can do to update your style! A few accessories, and maybe a little make up can help, but going for a dress you can wear two ways will instantly give you a whole new look! These type of dresses are usually very popular in wedding dresses, however, Jovani has these convertible fashions in prom dresses and cocktail dresses too! 

These Jovani dresses start off as long beautiful evening dresses, but when the skirt is removed, it instantly turns into a very fun and fabulous short dress! So let's say you have an event, you can make an entrance one way,  and enjoy the rest of your night in another! This would not only "wow" your guests, but it will give you a new look and a new attitude! 
 
Photographed wearing the dress already? Wear it another way and no one would even know! When going to an event or party, it's more than likely that you will be photographed, and everyone knows, you couldn't possibly be seen wearing the same dress again. For this reason, you will benefit entirely from purchasing one of these Jovani dresses, simply because you can wear it again! Even after you've made the photo of you in the dress your Facebook "profile pic!"

The thing about a Jovani convertible dress is, you're able to switch up your style without having to purchase another dress, because you're getting two dresses in one! This is very beneficial for the fashionably frugal! If you wore this dress to an event one way, by all means, show your inner fashion goddess and wear it again, in a complete different way. Switch up the accessories and there you go! Just by changing your shoes and accessories, that one of a kind Jovani dress, now has another opportunity to shine!

These dresses are perfect for proms and after party dresses, and ideal for birthdays. Switching up your look is more than saving money, being photographed a bunch of times, and making an entrance, its about having fun!



Here are some Jovani dresses that you can wear two ways!

2012 Miss America Pageant

Like many of the fans of Jovani Fashions, "Miss America represents the highest ideals. She is a real combination of beauty, grace, and intelligence, artistic and refined. She is a type which the American Girl might well emulate." This was said by the Atlantic City Chamber of Commerce President Frederick Hickma.


This Saturday, January 14th, live on abc, Miss America of 2011, Teresa Scanlan, will be crowning this years winner in a beautiful Jovani evening dress


At the pageant, everyone in the audience will receive the 2012 issue of Miss America Magazine! The magazine features 2011 Miss America, Teresa Scanlan wearing a number of beautiful Jovani dresses, along with features of the former Miss Americas, this year's 53 contestants, the 2012 Miss America preliminary hosts, national judges, and more!

Also, be sure to tune in to see Jovani Fashions worn by Meet the Parents actress, Teri Polo, and Former Miss America, Dena Blizzard!
As we know, besides the personal interview, talent, swimsuit, evening wear, and onstage question portion, these Miss America Pageants aren't entirely judged, based on the contestants beauty and brains, you've got to have the entire package! 

Although we personally think a fabulous Jovani dress is more than enough to win the judges over, Miss Americas 2012 panel of judges may think otherwise. According to Polo, "judge from the field of talent," its not about becoming a pop icon on a reality show. Which is a bit contrary to the fact that the daughters of Kris Jenner, "judge from the Field of beauty" are just that! Polo also states, "it’s about her being accepted as an all-around package of being a sensational woman with brains, talent -- and beauty. All 53 of these girls qualify for that criteria. It’s very difficult to choose.“ 

With Polo, Blizzard, and Kris Jenner as hosts and judges, this years Miss America pageant should be very interesting; and with beautiful Jovani dresses worn by Miss America, the host, and judge, just makes it all worth watching!
