Ugly and shapeless clothes ordered by mail, it’s over! We no longer hide, we want to be fashion, fashion, fashion to die of. Our stylist has concocted a punchy program to revitalize our wardrobe. Run throw your old misshapen sweaters, your extra wide pants.
Sculpt your waist in an obi XL belt, wear amazing heels, slip all eyes into our plunging neckline, dare the latest trend temptations of the season; to all that, YES, we are entitled to it. Phew: the Plus Size collections of major brands and specialized e-shops offer a trendy plus size fashion that finally allows us to concoct fresh, sharp and desirable. But in practice, how do we do it?
Before diving into our total makeover, we master 4 basic rules and learn them by heart.
1. NO ALL-OVER MOLDING
Skinny jeans ? With a fluid top (we didn’t say extra large, huh!). Soft bohemian skirt? With a fitted top. It’s very simple, we contrast the top and the bottom. A flexible piece is made of fluid material, which does not stick to the skin but remains well cut, at its size.
2. NO ALL-OVER PRINTS
We will not hide it: the XL print is very difficult to wear, regardless of its size. The problem: it immediately brings an additional density, as if we had one more size. By cons, very very good idea to reserve them on the upper body and favor a neckline that everyone envies. Very good too, the small vertical lines that stretch the silhouette.
3. WEAR FLUID FABRICS!
They are our best friends, especially on dresses, blouses and tops. Like a veil that runs through our body, it hides and discloses. It’s up to us to choose what! A generous chest, sculptural hips, fine wrists, a dancer’s neck: we show! A small bust, thighs too wide: we blur! The cuts adapt to our desires. No obligation to wear a sleeveless tank top if we hate our arms.
4. DO THE TIGHT RIGHT!
On the lower body in particular, we like the rigidity, the holding and the straight cuts of tight fabrics. Jeans that hold in place, a thick pencil skirt and even a straight man’s coat, but perfectly suited to our size. Avoid: ruffles, overlays of materials, XL pockets and other frills which, it will be understood, bring additional volume.
