Also the demise of home ec. and sewing knowledge doesn't help either, I am so glad I have my sewing badge from Girl Scouts because it I have to bring up every dress an inch to compensate for my short torso, and then drop the hem if it is too short because of my legs.

Thank you!
The Juniors department is evil. When I was younger, I would look in that section, but only for cute t-shirts and MAYBE some jeans. Everything else wasn't appealing at all. And I'm sorry, but if you're an adult... walk away. Better yet, run!
And you don't even need to know how to sew... just know a place you can take a dress to be lengthened or shortened if it calls for that. It's really not that difficult to find things that fit correctly (or to make them fit correctly!) if you try.
