But what we big girls have known for years is that you don’t have to be tiny to look fashionable and feel good about yourself. Here are some of the latest trends in 2013 for plus size women.
As you know, plus size fashion is no different than any other fashion in clothing. All women have to find a cut of clothing that complements their figure no matter how big or small they may be. The key is to be comfortable and not to try to fit into something that is too small for you. Fit is all about finding something that accentuates your strengths and minimizes your weaknesses, while still being comfortable to wear.
When looking for 2013 plus size trends, you’ll find that and pastel colors are in this year. There’s going to be lots of red, gray and winter white. You’ll also see burgundy and tangerine. And, as usual, there are the old staples black and white.
In dresses, wrap dresses are still in denim and jacket dresses have made a comeback. In suits, this year’s hot options include the skirt or pant suits for work and cocktail suits for the evening social life. But the big winner in 2013 plus size style is the skirt, which has made a big return to the fashion scene.
For winter 2013 plus size winter coats are a snap to shop for.
