A classy look is more than just buying a revealing top, dress or any other clothing item. It's about making the right clothing choices for your figure, knowing how to accentuate your best features and mask your not so best features.
Next time you shop for plus size clothing keep the tips below in mind.
All the bullets below are explained in more detail throughout this website.
The links in blue will take you directly to the page that is dedicated
to that specific topic.
- Know your body type. This will drive all your fashion choices.
- Buy the correct size. Too tight and you can look
trashy. Too baggy and you can look sloppy. Clothing
rarely fits right off the rack. Find a good tailor if you need too. It's worth the investment.
- Wear the correct bra size. The wrong size will make you look older and heavier.
- Make sure your bra fits properly.
- Know the difference between dressing classy and dressing trashy. For classy, accentuate one feature at a time. For instance, if you wear a plunging neckline then wear trouser style jeans or plants. Don’t pair a low cut top with skinny jeans.
- Minimize your problem areas, but don’t do it by wearing baggy styles.
- Always think in terms of elongating your silhouette.
- Your goal is to look balanced. Your bottom half and top half should be in proportion. Even if you don’t have an hourglass shape, your goal is to get one.
- Invest in shapewear. Don’t make your rolls and bulges the center of attention.
- Wear chunky high heels. They will make you look sexier and elongate your silhouette.
- Don’t hide behind dull earth tones and black clothing. Colors and patterns are a plus size woman's friend if worn properly.
- Know your skin tone so you know what colors are flattering on you.
- Wear romantic lingerie and
underwear. Even if no one will see it, you will know and it will make you feel saucy.
- Avoid fabric that
clings to you. Go with quality fabrics. To get a lesson on different types of fabrics click here special occasion dresses and bridal gown fabrics.
- Wear open necklines.
- Bigger is better when it comes to accessories.
- Wear age appropriate clothing.
- Define your waistline or create a waistline if you don’t have one.
This list may seem a bit
overwhelming, but it really isn't. In no time you will know what looks the best on your figure and your confidence will soar.
