Dressing for a bigger body is never easy, because let’s face it, most stores only stock small sizes, and nothing fits quite right. It may also be difficult to find a style that works for you. We have come up with solutions to problems you may have when it comes to choosing your daily outfits, so all you have to do, is add these pieces to your wardrobe.
You are wonderfully made so before anything, keep in mind confidence is the sexiest thing you could wear!As Megan Taylor sings, “Yeah it’s pretty clear, I ain’t no size two, But I can shake it, shake it like I’m supposed to do ’cause I got that boom boom that all the boys chase,all the right junk in all the right places”!
1. Arm coverage
All girls hate some part of their body. If you fall into this group say because of stretch marks or flab, invest in sassy 3/4 tops or dresses to cover up.
2. Short neck
Do you feel like your neck isn’t proportionate to your body, or do you simply want to bring attention to your neck? Elongate your neck with v-necks or cowl designs.
3.Midriff area
If you feel that this is the widest part of your body, try draped or ruching detail to highlight your upper body by slimming the middle. For your bottom area, always go for dark coloured clothes.
4. Bust
If you have a big bust, you may want to balance out your look with the rest of your body. Our solution, flared skirts and belts to accentuate your wait.
5. Hips
If your hips don’t lie, you may want to disguise them. Our solution, A-line clothes. They have a retro look and balance your proportion.
6. Proportion
If you would like to create an illusion of a perfect figure, go for a panel dress. These are great and would make you stand out in a subtle way.
7. Too tight
Some clothes end up being too tight and may stick to your body. To prevent this, go for light materials and tunic tops.
8. Sheer
Trends are a tricky thing to follow, and sheer all amazing and stylish is by no means easy to pull off. The trick for a plus size body is to have the sheer in less conservative areas such as your legs.
9. Legs
You may want to flaunt your legs, but do not know how. Try a sheath dress. The straight lined cut will make your entire body proportional, and short length highlight your legs. Add statement pieces to draw some attention up.
10. Trousers
Trousers are generally avoided because they are not considered as cute as dresses. Moreover, your trousers may ride up and as a result wear out around your thighs. The trick to pulling off trousers, slim pants or leggings, as these will provide a perfect fit.
