Women are all built differently. Hence, knowing what kinds of clothing look good on your body type is one of the toughest things to identify. It’s even harder for plus-sized women who aren’t aware of what looks good with their body type.
Most of them end up wearing loose and baggy clothes to hide their flaws without realizing that by doing so, they’re actually accentuating their flaws even more. So here are the key things that plus-sized women should look out for:
Know your body
Always, always find out what’s your real size. There’s nothing to be ashamed of because even plus-sized women have differences in proportion, height, and volume. If you’re short, go for pants or jeans that are cut straight down from the hip to elongate your body. If you’re tall, then flare or boot cut pants and jeans are just the things you need.
Don’t draw attention
If you know that you’ve got wide hips or if you feel that your butt is too big, don’t buy pants that do not have pockets on the back. And even if they have pockets, make sure that they are simple and plain. If you feel like your hips stick out, get pants that falls straight down from your hip instead of those that hugs your legs all the way down. Proportion is key!
Shape up
Ban all shapeless, oversized clothing. As much as they hide flaws, they will also make you seem bigger overall. Go for tops or jackets that don’t extend past your hips unless if you’re tall. This is because long tops or jackets that cover the belly and butt will cause these areas to be more noticeable. Let them stay in the midsection.
Colour yourself happy
Yes, we know, they always say that black is a very slimming colour. And many plus-sized women fall for in. As a result, their wardrobe is filled with nothing but black, black, and more black! We’ll have you know now that this is not necessarily the case. Neutral colours such as beige or monochromatic outfit match-ups can look good. Just don’t don on large, crazy, psychedelic patterns and you’re safe.
So there you have it. Four super easy ways to doll up and look just as beautiful as you can be even if you’re plus-sized. Go on and be comfortable with your body. Remember to always, always play up your best features. And remember that you can!
