These dresses are made to fit your waist and then gradually flare out towards the hem. A-line dresses are excellent for minimizing thighs, hips, and midsections while pulling the eyes to your bust.

With plenty of varieties, this is a kind of dress that you can wear again and again.

Like the A-Line style, empire dresses are made to fit through your bust. Rather than creating a distinctly angular shape like the A-Line, the Empire style flows from the bust down. This is another kind of dress that fits many body types. From curvy to apple body shapes, the Empire draws focus to your bust and minimizes everything else. For lovely ladies on the shorter side, this style defines your silhouette, especially if you choose a maxi length dress.

A throwback to the roaring 20's style flapper dresses, Drop Waist dresses look best on lean, athletic bodies that don't have too many curves in the hip area. The key to pulling off a Drop Waist style dress is to ensure that it's not hugging you. This dress is best worn when it is able to hang freely on your body.
SHOP NOWOnce you know the kind of waist that fits your body type, it's time to find your shape. A few of our most popular dress shapes include:
Any clothing store for women in Goose Creek, SC, worth its salt, will have plenty of fit & flare dresses for you to try. This common-shaped dress is one of the most popular on the market, mainly because they look great on every woman, regardless of age or shape. A timeless choice, fit & flare dresses fit through the bodice and flare out just below your hip. This helps develop a balanced, slimming silhouette for most women. If you want to accentuate your best assets and hide everything else, ask our experienced fashionistas to show you some the most popular fit & flare dresses at Copper Penny.
Time to start doing your happy dance! Fit & flare dresses have very balanced proportions, making them a true winner for every body type. Women with athletic builds love this dress for the extra curves. Women with apple-shaped bodies love how fit & flare dresses define their waistlines. Because this dress already looks like an hourglass on the hanger, it will be a natural fit for ladies with such a figure.
Shift dresses are typically rectangular in shape and tend to be comfy and forgiving since they aren't fitted. Also called a column dress, the shift dress is a great choice for polished professionals needing a conservative, fashionable outfit for work.
These dresses look fabulous on women with athletic, lean shapes and women with an apple-like figure. This kind of dress doesn't work well with a belt, so ladies with an hourglass figure may not be able to show off their curves in a shift. Try pairing this dress with a nice pair of heels for a beautiful new look!
Wrap dresses are one of the most popular styles on the market, because they give ladies of most shapes and sizes a flattering, fashionable dress option.
If you have an hourglass, apple, or generally curvy body shape, you're going to love wrap dresses. This style of dress offers a natural waist while placing emphasis on your bust. Wrap dresses give you a balanced silhouette and, with a knee-length fit, are great for any type of color or style, both day and nightwear.
Unless you're feeling extra sassy, chances are you're wearing a top at this very moment. Tops are garments that cover the top half of your body. At Copper Penny, we have an endless selection of tops in a wide range of styles - from basic tees to blouses and everything in between.

We only carry the most popular tops from the best brands and designers around the world.
Sometimes called broadcloth tops, poplins have classic characteristics and are often woven with an over/under weave. This kind of weave gives more substance to your top while also giving you room to breathe. Poplin shirts are typically soft and smooth, and are great for everyday business attire, some formal occasions, and for certain ceremonies. Sweet and feminine, our Bruna poplin eyelet bib top features ruffles at the sleeves and an eyelet lace yoke at the front. Pair your poplin with your favorite pair of shorts or jeans for a contemporary, relaxed look.

For a dose of feminine fashion, be sure you add an off-the-shoulder top to your everyday wardrobe. A casual, sexy choice, off-the-shoulder tops have unique necklines that cut across your upper arms and chest, leaving your shoulders bare. The result is a flirty flash of skin, which elongates your neck and gives a relaxed, "daytime casual" look. Our Nola off-the-shoulder top pairs perfectly with shorts or even a flowy skirt and is hand-woven in Spain using Jacquard fabric.

The best way to feel your best in an outfit is to make sure it fits correctly. To get started, you'll want to take your measurements. For most women's tops, the best areas to focus on are your hips, waist, and chest.
Hip Measurements: Measuring your hips is fairly easy. Take your measuring tape and use it to wrap around the widest area of your hips.
Waist Measurements: Take your measuring tape and place it at the very top of your hip bone. Wrap it all the way around your body. Try to keep your measuring tape in line with your belly button. For the most accurate measurements, stand up straight and breathe normally.
Chest Measurements: For an accurate chest measurement, take the end of your measuring tape and place it on the fullest area of your bust. From there, wrap the tape around your body, under your armpits, and around the blades of your shoulders. Then, wrap the tape tightly from the back of your body to the front, where you started.

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCSC) - The City of Goose Creek Fire Department is asking residents and business owners for input to help create the department’s first strategic plan.
City of Goose Creek Fire Chief Mike Nixon said the purpose of the plan is to get everyone in the department on the same page. They’ll get input from members of the department, the City of Goose Creek residents and business owners.
The survey asks what they need to work on and what they are doing well. That feedback will help them make a plan that will provide a clear and concise path moving forward. Nixon said it would also consider risk factors that could be faced in the future whether it’s internal or external with a response.
“Where are we excelling at, where are we failing at and kind of find a way to solve those issues. It could be something that people have had interactions with us on a fire scene where they thought we performed average. We don’t want to be average, we want to be above average,” Nixon said.
Once the survey closes they plan on having focus groups within the department to analyze the information and come up with a plan.
“We’re going to all sit down separately with the information that we’ve received from all of the surveys internal and external and we’re going to deep dive into every specific content point and we’re going to break them down and we’re going to figure out where we really need to focus we’re doing or at first try to problem solve those issues and come up with solutions for that,” Nixon said.
There is no set deadline for that set, but once it’s complete it will be posted for anyone to see. They plan to annually review it and about every three years create a new one.
You can take this 10-question survey starting Feb. 6, for 30 days. It’s available in three languages and you can drop off the paper version at city hall or online here.

COLUMBIA, SC (WOLO) — On Tuesday, the Trump Administration sent the first group of migrant detainees to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, which is being used as a large scale immigration detention center.
“There’s a lot of space to accommodate a lot of people, yeah, so we’re going to use it,” says President Trump from the Oval Office.
This, following his executive order on January 20th to crackdown on illegal immigration.
Also on Tuesday, Attorney General Alan Wilson sent a letter to all 46 sheriffs across SC — encouraging them to apply for ICE’s “Section 287-G Program” — which allows local law enforcement to perform and help in certain immigration efforts.
According to the official website of “Immigration and Customs Enforcement,” only Horry, Lexington, and York counties are currently signed up for the program.
Christale Spain, Chair of the SC Democratic Party, says there’s a lot of misinformation out there regarding the raids causing fear throughout certain communities.
“You know I just think people are scared, and emotionally feel afraid. We don’t know what’s happening with our country, and I think the way to combat that, as far as the Democratic Party goes, is to put out factual information,” she says.
With recent ICE raids happening as nearby as Goose Creek, SC and Savannah, Georgia, the SC Democratic Party wants legal community members to know their rights — should an ICE agent come to their door.
“To know that they don’t have to open the door for ICE unless they have a signed warrant from a judge, and they do have the right to remain silent, and they are not required to answer questions about their immigration status. And don’t sign anything without legal representation,” says Spain, adding, if you’re able to record the ICE raid safely, to do so.
“And report those incidents to immigrant rights organizations and legal groups,” she says.
According to Spain, adding to fear mongering regarding ICE raids are impersonators, with three men recently arrested for pretending to be an ICE agent. This includes 33-year-old Sean-Michael Johnson from Charleston County.
Congresswoman Nancy Mace has also taken part in raids, as she posted on X.
“If there aren’t safe guard rails put up on some of this, this craziness, you know, Americans are going to get swept up into this, and that…that should be a concern for everybody,” says Spain.
If you’d like more information, a free discussion regarding ICE raids will be held at the Richland County Public Library on Saturday, February 8th at 2:30 p.m.

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCSC) - The largest military shipbuilder in the U.S. is expanding its operations in Goose Creek with plans to create more than 250 jobs.
HII recently purchased the assets of W International, a metal fabrication facility located on Bushy Park Road that specializes in the manufacturing of shipbuilding structures, modules and assemblies.
The site will now be known as Newport News Shipbuilding-Charleston Operations and will operate under HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding division.
Berkeley County Economic Development Director, John Williams, said HII will bring all existing workforce, resources, and contracts with them, including contracts they already have with the U.S. military.
“They purchased the company and all the assets. The building that they have in place, all the equipment that they have in place, all of the contracts that they currently have, many of which are with the U.S. military, they’re assuming all of that. They’re going to take what they have and they’re going to grow it,” he said.
Williams said because HII is expanding operations, they’re increasing their capital investment to $100 million. He added they also plan to achieve W International’s failed goal of creating 600 positions.
“This is all kinds of trades. It’s not just welders. I mean, they need electricians, they need highly skilled machinists. They need pretty much any of the trades that you can think of that are going to be housed there and going to be needed by them. And, these are high-paying jobs. We’re not looking to try to recruit low-paying jobs in this area or lots of jobs. We want a good number of jobs, and we want good-paying jobs. And that’s why HII checks the box so well because they are... It’s a great company, long-standing, safe jobs, stable jobs, and high-paying jobs,” Williams said.
He said the site is perfect to support HII and all of their operations, and has many benefits like barge access, deep water access and a nearby railroad.
“That park is really desirable. The fact that they got deep water access, and so you can bring ships, you can bring submarines, you can bring any of those types of vessels that need water for transportation, you can bring them in there. If you’ve got pieces of equipment or engines that are too large to put either on the highway, on a truck, or on a rail, you can always put them on a barge and carry them by water. Bushy Park’s ability to barge different pieces of equipment checks the box for the HII,” Williams said.
He said all of these factors are important when thinking about transporting the type of giant vessels and submarines like HII does.

Operations Are Underway at Newport News Shipbuilding Charleston Operations
GOOSE CREEK, S.C., (Jan. 27, 2025) — HII (NYSE: HII) announced today it has closed on its acquisition of an advanced manufacturing facility and assets and begun work at its Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS) — Charleston Operations site in South Carolina.
“HII is committed to going where the labor is to increase shipbuilding capacity and increase throughput for our national security customers,” HII President and CEO Chris Kastner said. “This lets us efficiently add trained talent and state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities to the urgent job of building ships, making it a unique opportunity to immediately accelerate throughput at Newport News Shipbuilding in support of the Navy and AUKUS.”
HII announced last month its intent to acquire the facility and associated assets. Since then, more than 99% of the legacy workforce have accepted offers to continue to work on site, supporting the construction of nuclear-powered submarine modules and aircraft carrier units for U.S. Navy programs. Working closely with the South Carolina state and regional leadership, HII plans to create hundreds of additional jobs to support the increased demand and growth at the Charleston facility.
In addition to existing trained talent, HII’s acquisition also provides:
“This is great news for the South Carolina economy. This investment will allow us to expand our manufacturing footprint more aggressively in the shipbuilding industry,” U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said. “If you can drive it, fly it, shoot it or float it, South Carolina makes it.”
“The expansion of our nation’s largest military shipbuilder in South Carolina underscores the pivotal role our state plays in strengthening America’s national security,” U.S. Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., said. “The dedicated shipbuilders in the Charleston area are part of a highly skilled workforce that will propel our nation forward. This innovation and modernization in our defense industrial base will create jobs and draw resources to our state’s already robust Navy presence.”
