Plus Size Fashions
The average size of a woman in 2009 is a dress size 14. It’s great to see this being accepted as the normal average size. Did you know more than 62 million women average a size 14 or more?
Whether you personally believe you are beautiful or not – plus size women and plus size fashions are becoming more and more mainstream.
Unfortunately this wasn’t always the way before. Today less judgement is being passed on us and more is being place on the size 0 and 2 models appearing in Vogue.
This newfound awareness and acceptance of plus size fashions means there is more choice available to us today.
Today the range of plus size fashions is growing. Now we have many options – certainly as many as ‘standard’ size clothing.
This summer we have already seen some bright printed takini tops, which have been paired with a darker block color on the bottom.
As we’re now approaching Fall, I suggest you consider a satin skirt suit. Satin is perfect for the slight drop in temperature we’ll feel in Fall.
We’re going to be seeing a lot of east-Asian influences in our prints. The red Chinese dragon on black satin will be a popular design choice this season.
Crochet knitwear, boyfriend and cable cardigans will be abundant. The cardigan is a favourite this season and gives plus size women a great item for layering – as well as keeping us warm and stylish.
If you are a fan of slouch-style jeans – many plus size fashions are catering for this trend. It’s quite an urban street-wise look and for those bold enough to carry it off a real Fall winner.
Especially if you are curvy, slouch jeans will enhance your curves. Ladies show your assets off to your advantage!
For the particularly sophisticated plus size women why not try a 3 piece trouser suit? Loose trousers, a plain block color top is topped off with a printed suit top (which falls down past the waist).
A 3 piece suit is especially suitable for those with a fuller figure. It’s a versatile number and often stocked in specialty plus size designer stores.
I hope you are feeling excited at all the options this Fall for plus size fashions. Many choices await you. Make your curves a feature, instead of hiding them! Every bigger woman should flaunt their bodies to their best advantage!
