Finding the Right Fit for Plus-Size Women



If you think that fashion is for the thin girls on glossy magazine covers, think again! Instead of pining on clothing that would never fit, focus your energies on finding the clothes that do and creating a style statement of your own. Check out the range of clothes from Very especially designed for plus-size women.

Always remember, a cloak would be able to hide your unattractive features, but it would also hide your attractive ones. The key to choosing the right dress if you are on the fuller side is to opt for one that has the right structure and cut. It helps focus on your assets and helps take away attention from the not-so-good ones.

If the problem area is the abdomen and hips, opt for a flowing skirt with an empire waistline. An attention grabbing sequined neckline also works to this effect. Showing a little leg with a knee-length dress or skirt is also a good idea if you have pretty curved legs. Wear a little heel to accentuate the slimming effect.
If you want to wear a dressy top with pants, go for the straight-fit ones or the ones that flare at the bottom. Tapering ones would actually enhance your un-shapely mid-section. Wear blazers or coats that have the right length – ones that end just at the buttocks. Use belts to hint at the waistline but keep away the details.

As in all women’s wear, the fabric and colour have utmost importance in plus size clothing too. Fabrics that have a structure of their own, like cotton are better suited than flowing clingy fabrics. Monotone colours have a slimming effect, and so does the darker shades. Vertical stripes could also help you look slimmer.

Whether you are dressing up for a casual family gathering or an elegant formal dinner, the right size dress can win or ruin! Too loose and it envelops your whole body, too tight and you look like a sausage. Understand the details of the size (of the waistline, neckline, etc) you are buying and whether it would fit or not.

Very.co.uk has an amazing array of clothes to suit a larger frame. Check to find the right one for you for the right occasion!.....Read More ...
