A plus size fashion is developing more and more intensively every year, and this is not surprising: today the concept of generally accepted standards of beauty has become rather vague. Any woman can safely look the way she likes, and not consider the opinion of the others: this applies to appearance, body parameters, and lifestyle. And this is a very good trend, to my mind.
If you have non-standard body parameters and magnificent forms, they can absolutely be presented in the most favorable light with the help of properly selected clothes. Today we will talk about just that, and specifically – about dresses and how to choose a dress in a large size. Here are some simple tips.
DETERMINE THE BODY TYPE
Finding a good plus size dress is quite simple if you know your body type, because there are certain successful models for every physique. For example, if you have an hourglass figure (curvy chest, wide hips and a narrow waist), then you can go beyond a couple of styles of dresses, but choose any one to your taste: this body type is universal. If you have wide hips, opt for “airy” dresses that can then be separated into top and bottom sections with a waist band or belt, leaving a full front at the top to compensate for the imbalance. If, on the contrary, you have a massive top and narrow hips, choose an A-line dress in a silhouette of layered ruffles, a dress with a fitted top and a flare skirt, or a sheath dress with a wrap skirt. Well, for the ladies with a round tummy, I advise you to pay attention to a jacket dress or a wrap dress.
SELECT UNIVERSAL DESIGNS
A wrap dress, by the way, is a universal solution for a plus size figure. It suits all girls with juicy forms, the main thing is to choose the length according to your height. A belt at the waist will help visually identify it, and a triangular neckline will lengthen the torso and neck, making you visually slimmer. The XXL dress models that suit everyone also include the babydoll dress with a cut at the waist and the A-line dress: they hide possible problematic areas and emphasize your strengths.
A SPECIAL DRESS FOR AN IMPORTANT OCCASION
If you have a celebration, some important event or just a beautiful romantic date, you should definitely choose a spectacular evening dress. For plus size girls, I can recommend a slip dress below the knee with thin spaghetti straps (combined with an elongated jacket and high-heeled shoes), a wrap dress with puff sleeves and a flare skirt, as well as a silk kimono evening dress. You will definitely shine in such models!
