Do You Dare to Wiggle?

What is a Wiggle Dress? Well, Robin Roberts wears them on Good Morning America, Kelly wears them on Regis and Kelly. A wiggle dress is a dress that's narrow through the hips and that keeps your legs squeezed together. They made you waddle or, in this case, wiggle. If you haven't already guessed, you usually have to "wiggle" into them, too!

Love the look, but not sure they are all that comfortable. And of course, it depends on your shape as well. They definitely are retro--popular in the 1950's. Here are some updated versions just in case you are game. The advantage of the new wiggle dresses are that they are often designed with a stretchy fabric that moves with you compared to the stiff fabrics of the 50's.
