Big hips, small chest, too short, round tummy -- dressing for your body type can be tricky. Fortunately, "Top Model" queen bee Tyra Banks turned to promspot.com to give two lucky girls head-to-toe makeovers and tips on dressing for their body type. Check out how Tyra and promspot.com transformed these two girls into gorgeous prom queens.






Tummy Tuck
Prom Queen: An honor student with a college scholarship all lined up, Alyssa was ecstatic about going to prom. However, she recently broke up with her boyfriend, and he's taking his new girlfriend. That's not enough to get this girl down, though. Alyssa wants to show up to prom looking stunning and radiant. She had her eye on an orange gown and thinks that the mermaid-style skirt will distract from her problem area -- her tummy.

The Fix: Promspot.com chose a deep olive green, satin gown by Jessica McClintock ($170) with a plunging back and ruching on the bodice. The color matches her olive-tone complexion perfectly. With a sexy back and curvy silhouette, Alyssa won't have to give her stomach a second thought -- or her ex-boyfriend. To complement the dress, promspot.com added deep bronze sandals and a matching clutch from Blue Tux Shoes.


Defining Moment
Prom Queen: As class president, Erika is expected to look gorgeous at her senior prom. However, Erika's terrible junior prom has left her scarred. She wore two girdles to hide her full-figure, and her halter dress kept falling down and was too revealing. Erika says she has a big bust, no butt, no hips, and big thighs. "As far as being full-figured, I love the way I am," she says. "I just want to look on the outside the way I feel on the inside."

The Fix: Since Erika loves her legs, promspot.com chose Galaxy ($199), a tea-length, lilac, charmeuse satin dress with a lace overlay courtesy of Sydney's Closet (which specializes in full-figure formalwear). The contrasting Empire waist is perfect for her pear-shaped figure and gives definition to her waist. The dress is accented with a matching lace bolero jacket for more coverage, along with silver sandals and a silver clutch from Blue Tux Shoes.
