There has been a forever-long misconception that women with fuller figures should dress a certain way. You often hear tips on hiding or disguising your “problem areas” with clothes that are at least three sizes too large. Life is too short for you to follow these archaic, and fatphobic, fashion rules. If you want to let your voluptuous body shine to its fullest, use these plus-size outfit ideas as inspiration for your next #OOTD.
Comfy Wide-Legged Pants
Flared trousers are probably not your first option when you feel like flaunting your curves. But don’t underestimate the subtle sexiness of wide-leg bottoms. The silhouette accentuates your waist and, most importantly, makes your butt look popping– low-key anyway. If that’s not enough to convince you to grab a pair, consider the versatility. You can wear it down with a basic tank or pair it with a vest top for an office-appropriate ensemble.
Tube Top and Relaxed Pants
Plus-size outfit ideas tend to feature flowy tops with billowy sleeves. While they’re cute and breezy for the summer, sometimes a girl just wants to go sleeveless. Since everyone is living the Y2K dream, why not sport a tube top? Go for one that’s form-fitting around the waist and bust to give you extra support. For big-chested ladies, stick on silicone tape along the neckline to keep your top from sliding down.
Cropped Co-Ord Set
If you’re on the lookout for easy-to-style plus-size beach outfits, try out co-ord sets. You only need to put them on. The two-piece ensemble usually consists of a crop top and matching pants or maxi skirt. The combo allows you to move freely without having to worry about unforgiving rolls and folds. If the default look is too boring in your eyes, you can let your cute bikini peek over the top, accessorize with gold necklaces, or bling it out with a waist chain.
Midriff Shirt With Shorts
Some people see the idea of a curvy woman showing her midriff and thick thighs as a fashion faux pas. To that, we say this: “Eff that noise!”There’s nothing wrong with showing a little skin. It’s hot outside and the last thing you want is to suffocate in layers of fabric.
This summery combo works to your advantage because it defines your curves and elongates your silhouette. Just make sure to balance out the proportions. If your shorts have a relaxed fit, pick a crop top with a snug fit. Alternatively, if you’re wearing thigh-hugging shorts, opt for a slightly looser top.
Elegant Wrap Dress
Looking for plus-size outfit ideas to wear at a wedding? Wrap dresses can work for practically any venue, from a beach party to a formal ballroom reception. This garment flows and sways every time you move, flattering your figure. Moreover, it’s ridiculously comfortable, which makes it perfect for a night full of mingling and dancing.
To complete the look, consider adding heels and a pair of dangly earrings. If you’re not sure how to style your hair for the soirée, check out our list of braided hairdos.
Sexy Slip Dress
You can love all your curves and be insecure about your visible belly outline. That’s a very human thing to feel. If that’s the case, the only rule you should follow is to find what suits your comfort level.
Bodycon dresses, while they are great for showing off your curvaceous figure, can make you feel too body-conscious. Instead, grab a curve-skimming slip dress. It gives almost the same effect as a bodycon dress, but without clinging too tightly to your body.
Pencil Midi Skirt Outfit
If you’re looking for sensual yet classy plus-size outfit ideas, a pencil skirt, blouse, and pointed-toe heels may be just what you need. Don’t be afraid to experiment with color. Take a page out of model Precious Lee’s look and bring out your personality with vibrant hues. Maybe add a power pony, too.
Before you start ransacking your closet and playing dress-up, do a beauty prep to boost your confidence. You can start by taking a nice shower with Dove Gentle Exfoliating Body Wash. The exfoliating beads help get rid of dead skin cells, giving you softer skin after just one shower. You can also try Dove Go Fresh Cucumber & Green Tea Body Wash. It’s made with a Microbiome Gentle Skin Prebiotics formula, which replenishes lost moisture and maintains your skin’s protective layer.
Exploring plus-size outfit ideas is not only fun, but it also teaches you new things about yourself. Whatever style you end up choosing, remember that your body is for you. It’s not a decoration or an object of comparison. So, embrace your curves with zero shame!
