The jacket has long ceased to be just the upper part of the suit. Of course, women’s suits (as well as men’s suits) have remained with us and please us with a variety of styles. However, the women’s jacket has gained much more independence as a separate piece of clothing that can be combined with both a dress and jeans, shorts, jumpsuits, mini skirts and a million other things. But today we will talk not just about the jacket and its popular combinations, but about the plus size jacket. Curvy girls, be sure: your body type is trendy now! There’s no need to lose weight for a new thing, just choose the right style. This is what we will do today.
WHICH JACKET TO CHOOSE FOR A PLUS SIZE FIGURE?
There are several basic rules that must be followed when choosing a jacket for a curvy figure to make the look organic and emphasize your dignities in a beautiful way. Naturally, they are associated with the structural features of your body.
If you have a large chest and broad shoulders (a rather massive top), it is advisable to buy a jacket without lapels and a collar. It won’t be buttoned-down either: you can wear it as a cape over a shirt, T-shirt, or dress. If you take a longer model of such a jacket, it will visually make the upper part slimmer. Also, do not choose models with large lapels: they accentuate the upper body.
However, jackets with large lapels are suitable for ladies with small breasts, but voluminous hips: they will balance the top and bottom of the look. You can even buy an eco leather jacket and play with the contrast of materials, diverting attention from the bottom.
A wrap jacket with a waistband, reminiscent of a cropped raincoat or trench coat, is suitable for those girls who need to emphasize their waist. A jacket with small and thin vertical stripes with a belt at the waist is also suitable for this: it slims and sets the necessary accents.
SUCCESSFUL COMBINATIONS WITH A JACKET
First of all, I advise you to combine plus size jackets with dark T-shirts or long-sleeved tops and straight jeans: checkered button-down jackets, striped jackets, contrasting color jackets with rolled cuffs look great in this look. This casual look can be worn with sports shoes, sandals, mules or pumps.
Another win-win option is to wear a jacket on top of the turtleneck, add black high-waisted dress trousers and boots underneath. You can make a total look in black and dilute it with a bright spot of accessories: a massive chain around your neck and long earrings are perfect for this.
Oversize is very popular this season, so take a look at the plus size eco leather jackets. On occasion, they can also act as a raincoat, if you choose an elongated version.
