TOP 10 Styling Tips for Plus Size Women: Fashion That Flatters Every Curve (XXL & XXXL & 4XL & 5XL Included)

I thank god that Fashion is size inclusive, unlike ‘food’ (laughing out loud in my mind). Fashion is for everybody, every girl of every shape and every size, be it XXL or XXXL or 4XL or 5XL for that matter. When it comes to plus size women, it all comes down to how one has styled herself- whether it’s the right fit or not, whether it’s a suitable color or not, or is the silhouette right for the body or not. If you are a XXL or XXL or 5XL, these 10 styling tips will help you look hotter and sexier than that S size model. 

  1. Embrace the Right FIT.

Plus size women generally tend to think that hiding is the best option. But no my sweetie, what you really need to do is HIGHLIGHT. But the key to a great style is the fit- and that includes everything from a well cut XXL dress to a tailored XXXL kurta. Clothes should hug your shape in the right places rather than clinging or drowning you. 

For example, if you are a heavy chested girl, the clothes can be fit but the neckline could be distracting or the dupatta could be overpowering. 

  1. Celebrate Curves With Confidence

It’s as simple as that, you need to flaunt what you got with utmost confidence. Plus size women look flattering with V-necklines, tweaked waists, slit dresses. Highlight teh features that you love.

  1. Layer Like A Pro

Layers work like magic for plus size women. An XXL or XXXL shirt over a fitted dress or boyfriend jeans looks terrific. Plus size women can also pair front-open jackets or longline shrugs to add structure and style while not looking too-much.

  1. Go Monochrome (or Bold!)

Plus size women when styled in a single color looks more profound and elongated and gives a composed look. XXL or XXXL girls with a single color flowy dress or a jumpsuit look flattering. But not only a single dull color, don’t be afraid to experiment with bold colors also.

  1. Find Quality XXL Basics

Basics are must! Every plus size women should have a crisp white shirt, good fitting denim jeans, and a breathable cotton kurta in her closet. Basics always protect you from fashion emergencies. They are a foundation of a good styling.

  1. Structure over Slouch

  1. Accessorise to Draw Focus

  1. Choose Fabrics That Flow
