A stylish coat, jacket or raincoat is one of the most important elements of any cool-weather look. Outerwear is not only the most noticeable item in your wardrobe for the fall-winter season, but also the thing (or several things) that you wear more often than all the others. That’s why it’s so important to find outerwear that makes you feel warm and confident. However, it is not always easy to find a suitable option for plus size body types.
The good news is that times have changed and more and more brands now offer more and more plus-size designs: a variety of dresses, chic jackets, comfortable loungewear, suits, trousers, and, yes, plus size outerwear. There is no problem with choice: whether you prefer a classic trench coat, a light down jacket, a casual wool coat or a statement faux fur coat, there is a model for you in every shape and size. But how to choose plus size outerwear correctly, as not every silhouette fits well on a curvy figure? We tried to answer this question by preparing this collection. All these models will keep you warm and stay on trend throughout the season.
SHORT WRAP COAT
The wrap style with waist band suits everyone: it has a V neckline to elongate the silhouette, a belt to define the waist, and the little extra fabric to create some air. The length to the middle of the thigh will suit girls of any height, and it will not be cold in it. And if you don’t already have a checkered coat, you can choose this style in diagonal check fabric. With an eye-catching checkered pattern, large shawl collar and asymmetrical hem, this wrap wool coat is sure to become your favorite.
OVERSIZE MIDI QUILTED JACKET
One of the undoubted hits of this year is plus size jackets and down jackets made of raincoat fabric and stitched in small squares. Oversize is also good on curvy shapes: with a skillfully selected jacket, it will help you hide figure flaws and create a pleasant impression of the look. Choose from a waistband jacket or pair it with a leather belt to shape it and accentuate your waist.
SHORT FAUX FUR COAT
Winter plus size looks can also be assembled with a faux fur coat. I advise you to choose an artificial sheepskin: it looks cute (such curly bouclé wool), warms well and is easy to take care of. By the way, such a fur coat is perfectly combined with woolen wide trousers and a basic warm scarf.
STRAIGHT WINTER COAT WITH LAPELS
If your plus size figure has hourglass proportions, choose a straight midi or midaxi coat with wide lapels. Such outerwear looks very elegant and is suitable for business ladies and fans of strict style.
