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. This style of dress is a great fit for almost any body type. There's a reason why so many brides settle on A-Line dresses for their big day! 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 Mauldin, 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.

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.

When choosing a women's top for your outfit, you have to consider how comfortable, confident, and beautiful you will feel. 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.

Belizean brothers Ricardo and Sergio Briceño are known for their Mississippi Delta Cathead confection concept, Maverick Biscuit. By mid-December, they will add Italian cuisine under the same roof. Travinia Italian Kitchen will open alongside the brunch diner at two locations, one in Cherrydale and another in Mauldin.
Both Maverick Biscuit and Travinia Italian Kitchen will take over the former site of Southern Culture Kitchen and Bar in Cherrydale at 2537 Pleasantburg Road, which closed in June of 2024, and Travinia will join the existing Maverick Biscuit location at 306 N. Main St. in Mauldin.
In a balance of brotherhood, biscuits, and Italy, both Briceños are taking a chance on a dual-restaurant under a one-roof approach that will host Maverick Biscuit from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., then transition to a Frank Sinatra-inspired Italian dining establishment that features scratch-made portions of pasta, homemade meatballs, and more from 4 p.m. until 9 or 10 p.m. on weekends.
"Once you put this type of passion into a product, you have a lot of comfort in what you're doing," said Sergio Briceño, co-owner of Travinia Italian Kitchen and Maverick Biscuit. "Plus, we do everything from scratch, our sauces, dressings and meatballs... just like we have one person dedicated to making biscuits, it all will be made with love and effort."
An existing dual-restaurant concept between the Briceños opened in Woodruff in mid-2024 and has been successful. Now, with Ricardo overseeing the brunch and Sergio over the Italian, the Belizean biscuit brothers are teaming up to introduce that balance all under the same roof, with an opening date of Dec. 9.
"We believe in our concept," said Sergio Briceño. "To cook well, you have to have a passion to make it like your grandmother, and that's how we look at this. Sometimes, we even call on Mom to perfect our recipes."
While housing two styles of cuisine under one roof is unusual, the Briceño brothers are confident in their ability to execute a menu and ambiance supporting their 30-year culinary efforts in Greenville.
Here is everything to know about the upcoming brunch and Italian restaurant concept:
When the Briceño brothers moved to Greenville nearly 30 years ago, they brought experiences from their time cheffing at Houston's, a seafood and steakhouse in Atlanta, and cooking methods learned from their family's matriarchs.
The two began their restaurant voyage in Greenville by opening the Arizona Steakhouse in Simpsonville. Since selling the concept, they have focused on their most successful food venture, the Taylors location of Maverick Biscuit, beginning in 2021.
While this is not their first attempt at Travinia Italian Kitchen, as it once happened in Greenville but quickly vanished six months ago, the Briceños opened the hybrid restaurant idea in Woodruff and have seen great success.
The Travinia Italian Kitchen concept, owned by the Briceños, already exists at locations in Myrtle Beach and Lexington. It leans on many South Carolina-based vendors, including Taylor Boys Produce, proteins from Snow Creek Meat Processing, and more, to supply fresh, scratch-made menu items, including piccata, meatballs, pasta, and even croutons and salad dressings—a method it intends to implement in Cherrydale and Mauldin locations.
"This is not your typical Italian restaurant," said Ricardo Briceño. "We are creative, resourceful and willing to go the extra step to deliver the best product to our customers."
Travinia at Cherrydale will host an Italian menu with seafood and steak recipes, ranging from a basic homemade Alfredo, meatballs, and pasta to ribeye, filets, and sirloins.
The restaurant will feature many Italian touches, including photos, wine selections, and decor, and even a private dining space known as the Sinatra Room, which pays homage to the 20th-century singer and actor.
Their upcoming Mauldin location will feature a smaller dining space that will serve seafood and pasta, as well as a large selection of wines, barillas, certified Angus beef, and fresh Atlantic seafood options.
As their passion for cooking began nearly a half-century ago, the Briceño brothers are intrigued by using the simplicity of good oils, garlic, spices, and herbs while continuing to perfect their scratch-made breakfast efforts.
"We don't want to confuse the guests with what we're doing," said Ricardo Briceño. "But with Italian, we can do so many things and showcase the techniques and care for pasta, steaks and seafood that we know well."
Together, the brothers own three locations of Maverick Biscuit in the Upstate, including restaurants in Taylors (original), Mauldin, and Woodruff.
The existing location of Travinia Italian Kitchen at 105 East Beacon Drive in Greenville is a franchise restaurant but under the naming rights owned by the Briceño brothers.
Additionally, the Briceños plan to host free meals for the needy at the Cherrydale location and will look to expand to the Fountain Inn and Inman area once operations at the upcoming restaurants are stable.
"With anything we do, we are Christians first," said Sergio Briceño. "We asked the good Lord for guidance on this, and because of him, we have faith in what we're doing."

A 21-acre tract long eyed by developers in southern Greenville County will become a large upscale residential development with five four-story apartment buildings, 12 townhomes and three carriage homes.
Known as District South, the property was annexed by the city of Mauldin at the request of developer Flourney Development Group of Columbus, Georgia. It is located at the intersection of Tanner Road and Verdin Road where two homes were located, amid a cluster of commercial uses along heavily traveled Woodruff Road including a day care, car wash, a retirement home and some townhomes.
It was first proposed to the Mauldin Planning Commission in 2022 and is scheduled to be completed in March 2027.
The development will include 14 work spaces on the ground floor, which can be combined with living space above, ranging from 700 square feet to approximately 1,200 square feet. These would be for small offices or retail uses such as accountants, architects, artists or computer software and multimedia related professionals.
The developer also said in planning documents the spaces could hold a coffee shop, hair stylist or a home-based office worker.
The application ruled out vehicle repair or maintenance, adult businesses, massage parlors or large commercial restaurants.
The development also will include a market, fitness and wellness center, swimming pool, meeting room, fully supplied hobby room, dog park and pet spa, car wash and mail room.
The residences will be a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom units from 600 square feet up to 1,600 square feet.
“This project further reflects our commitment to delivering best-in-class communities that combine modern elegance, careful and thorough attention to detail, and a distinct sense of community,” Ryan Foster, senior vice president of Flournoy Development Group, said in a news release.
Nearby residents expressed concerns at a Planning Commission public hearing in 2022 about traffic and storm water runoff.
The Planning Commission noted the traffic concerts when it recommended the project, which was subsequently approved by Mauldin City Council.
The South Carolina Department of Transportation has since made a number of improvements on Tanner Road.
Flourney has built several apartment complexes in Greenville County including District Midtown, District West, The Aventine Greenville, Carolina Point Apartments and The Paddock Club Greenville.
Its District East development on Pelham Road on Greenville County’s eastside is scheduled to begin pre-leasing this spring.
