Do you think anyone can look their best underweight?

I'm just curious. Sometimes I think that may be true for some women who are too heavy or gain weight in their tummies... When underweight especially in women with an inverted triangle shape it shows off their curves much more than before... I mean what is a person who gains weight in middle and has no hips to do if they gain weight? Try to stay underweight or just look sloppy?
I look much better very thin. I've been 125 at 5'9" and am now about 160. I feel like a fatty. I carry my weight i my hips and waist.
Well, depends on the individual. Speaking in general terms, those of us who are older look better with a few "extra." I am nearly 70 now, 5'8" 150 (toned more or less) pounds. When I was 20-40 weighed about 125-130. I would look gaunt and sick if I were that low now, I look and feel good and healthy at my current weight, I try to maintain my shape (and health) through proper eating and exercise.
I think this one also will be closed, so I just want to say, No. I think women with 'full' faces and blocky torsos tend to look better toward the low end of the normal weight range; but at underweight most or all curves disappear and the result resembles a girl's body, which is creepy (and, I suspect, comfortably nostalgic/youthful to some of those women), and skin and hair probably won't look their best. Understandably so, as underweight is unhealthy.

Define “ underweight”.
Oh geez, never mind. Why does that poster keep reviving these old threads????
I spent six years between 90 lbs and 105 lbs at 5'5.5", age 37-42. Several of those years I was under 100 lbs. I am paying for it dearly now with very low bone density at age 46. I'm still trying to come to terms with how my body looks now though with a butt and hips at 113 lbs. I do workout a lot but due to multiple injuries from pushing my body so hard for so long on so little I am not able to do as much as I used to. I am rail thin on top, flat chest, but carry all my fat in lower body which I really hate, but that's the way it is.
No one looks “their best” at an unhealthy weight. That doesn’t mean not beautiful, but definitely not your best.
