Dress is the epitome of practical elegance for women. Regardless of your body type and preferences, achieving a look that will make you smile with a carefully chosen dress is possible. Here's how to choose plus-size dresses:
The hips and abdomen are the main areas to consider in plus-size dress selection.
If your fuller area is your hips, the most important point to consider is to avoid dresses that cling to the hips.
If your waist circumference is wide, you can choose deep V-neck and boat neck dress models. These models draw attention away from your waist area. You can also comfortably choose models with padding and embellishments on the shoulder part. Also, pay attention to avoiding models that cling to the abdomen area.
There are a few key points in plus-size dress selection:
- Avoid dresses that are too loose or too tight for your body
You should choose dresses in sizes that fit your body. Contrary to popular belief, opting for very loose clothes does not hide chubby areas. It leads to the exposure of these areas and makes you look wider than normal. Very tight dresses will reveal all your excesses and kilos by sticking to your body.
- Striped dresses
If you want to opt for a striped dress, you should stay away from horizontal stripes. Instead, opt for thin and vertical striped models whenever possible as they help you look slimmer than you are.
- Dark color preference
Dark colors are, of course, indispensable for plus-size wardrobes. Because they make the person look slimmer than they are. However, this does not mean that you cannot choose a dress in your favorite pink, blue, or green tones. On the contrary, you can achieve the elegance of your dreams with a dress in any color you want. All you have to do is to combine it with dark-colored pieces like a belt that will take your attention away from chubby areas.
Recommended models vary according to the fuller body area and the individual's taste. However, there is a wildcard in every closet, a joker that fits most body types: A-line dresses.
