Fashion standards are created for very slim people, so ladies with fuller shapes - especially mature ones - may have problems finding comfortable and modern outfits for themselves. Fortunately, this changes over time, and designers are increasingly taking into account the needs of customers with different types of figure. Thanks to this, you can forget about complexes and bring out the best in your body.
Plus size for adults - how to mask the belly?
The problem of "belly" affects many people - with different shapes and body weights. So let's use fashion with full awareness in such a way as to effectively get rid of your complexes. A good way to mask a fuller belly is a wrap, shirt, box or trapezoidal dress. Any wrinkles on the belly line are highly recommended.
You can also choose a loose, unfastened cardigan or jacket with the dress. Contrasting colors will work well here - the silhouette will appear slimmer thanks to this.
Other good ways to mask your tummy? Choose high-waisted pants that optically slim your figure and come back into favor with retro fashion. Another good trick is high-waisted skirts, cut under the bust or flared with box pleats.
It is also worth focusing on the appropriate materials in the abdominal zone - necessarily loose, flowing, preferably matte. Elastic fabrics that adapt to the body, and especially shiny fabrics, unfortunately emphasize the belly even more.
A loose top can be balanced with a fitted bottom, especially if you can boast shapely legs. Also useoptical benefits of colors and patterns that make the figure look slimmer. Bet on navy blue, burgundy, gray, vertical stripes. Black has good qualities in this respect, but in the case of mature women it can add excess years.
Plus size for adults - how to slim down the torso?
In order to slim down the torso, it is worth dividing the figure visually into two parts. The best for this is a V-neck or V-neck. Turtlenecks or built-up mountains are definitely not recommended - this way the figure will gain even more centimeters.
Another way to slim your upper body is to wear dark blouses and sweaters in a duet with light pants or a light skirt. Also, focus on color contrasts at the top - for example, wear a dark jacket with a bright blouse. Vertical decorative elements, especially stripes, will also be helpful. Avoid small patterns - the scaled ones will look much better.
Plus size for adults - how to mask chubby shoulders?
What will not look good for sure? There is only one answer: tight sleeves and thin straps. Instead, opt for loose sleeves, preferably with a widening hem. They can be short or 3/4 long. A frill at the end will provide a good effect.
Translucent sleeves, e.g. lace sleeves, will also look interesting - they will also take some centimeters away from chubby shoulders. You will gain further optical benefits by choosing a slim neckline, i.e. V-neck or v-neck. This way you will distract your attention from your shoulders. Another great solution is the so-called Spanish neckline (arms pulled down). The upper body, including the arms, gains a lot of lightness.
Also try to balance the wider top, opting for a looser bottom - even trapezoidal skirts will be great. You can gain a lot by choosing the right dress. It shouldn't stick around in places that you want to mask.
Plus size for mature people - ways for massive hips and thighs
The most advantageous in this case will be trapezoidal or A-shaped skirts, as well as dresses with such a bottom. Just remember that they should not be pleated, because it optically increases the volume of the figure. Choose models cut under the bust, which will additionally mask a more massive belly.
What about the pants? First of all, they should fit well - neither too wide nor too tight. Good proportions are provided by trousers with flared legs, including bells that are returning to favors. Don't worry if they stick out at the waist - you can narrow them yourself or just use the appropriate belt. Other recommendable solutions are the fabric pants wa crease (legs seem slender) and slimming underwear.
Plus size for mature - chubby calves and ankles
Chubby calves effectively discourage wearing shorter skirts and dresses. If you want to cover them skillfully, choose maxi lengths that cover both calves and ankles well. The best are light, soft-fitting fabrics and flared cuts.
Avoid oversize models, because they will optically add even more centimeters to your silhouette. Also, do not be afraid of gathering and frills in the lower part - as long as the material is not stiff.
Pants with slightly widening legs are also a good remedy for the "problem" of calves. So you can bet on bells or seams, including fashionable, high-waisted cuts. A jumpsuit with slightly looser pants, necessarily made of soft, delicate fabric, will also work well. Try to avoid patterns - solid colors of materials will be better.
Another important thing is the right choice of shoes. Do not wear dark shoes on your bare feet - this way you will only pay attention to the ankles or calves. And if you like dark shoes, choose matching tights. Then you will avoid a poor contrast with the skin color. Flat heels are not always a good choice, but thin heels are also not recommended (again: they will strongly mark thicker ankles). So it is better to opt for light wedges or shoes on the post. Also, as often as possible, wear boots and boots. Also, remember that your shoes should not be tied at the ankle.
