Fashion Do's of Plus Size Skirts
DO skirts for summer... Show off your curves in plus sized skirts this
season! Forget about wearing jeans and heavy clothing all
summer. Whether you’re going to a party or a cookout, a cute
full figure sized skirt can help you steal the show. We recommend
One Stop Plus for this item.
DO choose the right length skirt, depending on your
body shape. Just like any other apparel item, the cut of your
shirt can make or break your look. If you’re broader in the
shoulder area, choose an a-line skirt to help you look more
proportionate. If you have an hour glass shape, you may want to
choose a pencil skirt with a slight flair at the bottom. It will
help emphasize your curves, while providing a slightly slimming
effect. We recommend
Woman
Within for this item.
DO wear causual skirts... Think about the occasion when you choose your
clothing, including your skirt. If you’re hanging out with pals
or planning to picnic at the park, you can do so comfortably in
a peasant skirt or gypsy knit skirt. You can also try flowing
floral printed skirts for a comfortable summer style. Wear these
styles with flip flops or sandals and pair them with a white
tank for a crisp summer look! We recommend
Lane Bryant for this item.
DO try unique, colorful, exciting styles... Experiment with colors instead of sticking with all
black on the bottom. Red can be quite sexy and elegant for
evening events. Consider skirts with an asymmetrical hem if you
want to spice things up in a trendy way. We recommend
Coldwater Creek for this item.
DO own a tweed "power" skirt... Forgo the “man suit” during your next business meeting
and opt for a more feminine look. A tweed knee length skirt
means business, while still allowing you to express your beauty
and femininity. Remember, you can be powerful…in a skirt! We recommend
Jessica London for this item.
Fashion Don'ts of Plus Size Skirts
DON'T overdo the mini skirt.. Don't even consider wearing a mini skirt, unless you’re
under the age of 35. While you may think that fashion rule is
prejudice against age, it’s the bold truth. Mini skirts look
most flattering on women who are petite in height, however they
are almost never appropriate for anything other than a fun night
dancing out at a club.
DON’T forget about tea length... Many woman automatically choose a skirt that is
either long or short. However, the tea length option is very
flattering on most body types. Those who have heavier thigh
areas, but like their calfs can have the best of both worlds
with this cut of skirt.
DON'T forget that skirts should skim your body, not hug
it. In addition, they should not swallow your body in a way that
disallows anyone to notice your shape. The perfect skirt
highlights your waist and falls freely, allowing for the most
flattering look!
