Plus size summer dresses and sundresses
There are no fat women, there are only tight clothes - this is what the famous Soviet actress Faina Ranevskaya once claimed and it is difficult to argue with her. Modern designers have long solved the age-old problem of tightness and now you can find any clothes labeled "plus size" in stores. But in this fashion season, designers advise curvy young ladies to pay special attention to the most feminine elements of the wardrobe - dresses and sundresses. They do not just fit physically on a three-dimensional figure, but also allow you to hide even its most visible flaws. Why is that?
Features and Benefits
Dresses and sundresses for a magnificent figure allow you to hide the flaws of the silhouette, primarily due to the features of the cut. Usually it is a loose, straight or semi-fitted cut that favorably emphasizes the roundness of the silhouette without focusing on extra volumes. In many ways, this is facilitated by the texture of the fabrics from which the outfits are created. They are either dense enough to keep the volumes within reasonable limits, or light and flowing so that these volumes are less noticeable.
Decorative elements also play an important role in adjusting the silhouette. Volumetric details in the form of ruffles, flounces and draperies are rarely used in models, because they only increase the volume of the silhouette, but designers never forget about the combination of shades and lace.Interestingly, the contrasting details on the sides of the product often act as a visual silhouette corrector.
The creators of dresses and sundresses are also experimenting with the length of outfits. In the model range for the full there are both shortened models long to the middle of the knee, and longer midi or floor-length dresses.
How to choose
But fashion experts advise plump young ladies to pay special attention to sundresses with a high waist. Such models allow you to visually stretch the silhouette and make it more slender. V-neck models and classic simple styles are also suitable for a voluminous silhouette.
When choosing a suitable model, you should take into account the disadvantages of your figure: if there is an excess of volume in some separate zone, it is necessary to cover it with the simplest and darkest fabric, but the lack of shapes can be compensated for with light shades, ruffles, flounces, basco and drapery.
What to avoid
What sundresses and dresses are unlikely to adorn a magnificent figure? Models with too thin shoulder straps and a detachable waist. Also, full young ladies should avoid a large, horizontal pattern and sharp borders in the decor. Dresses made of too thin or shiny material and velvet, as well as dresses with large sequins and an abundance of beads, will also look unprofitable on lush girls. It is better to choose a sleeveless dress model for girls with a beautiful neckline and arms, but in other cases it is not recommended to wear such outfits.
Popular models and styles
This season, designers advise plump girls to pay special attention to models that combine contrasting and classic shades.Combinations of black with red, blue with white, black with beige and lilac with gray are ideal. The most fashionable solid colors are crimson, turquoise, beige, brown, pink and blue.
As for fashionable styles, the greatest trend is now trapezoidal, semi-fitted and flared. The length is welcomed not too shortened - at least to the knee, maximum to the floor. Girls with slender legs can choose a shorter model, but the hem in this case should not be higher than the middle of the thigh.
Fashion trends
Fashion designers paid great attention this season to prints on sundresses and dresses. This is not strange, because with the help of a successful pattern, you can visually hide any figure flaws. Ethnic and geometric motifs are now famous for their slimming effect, but experts advise treating the floral pattern as carefully as possible. It is best if this pattern is small, although dark floral combinations in large form are not excluded. What prints and patterns are the most win-win?
in a cage
The checkered pattern helps to hide the volume of the silhouette, if it is not too contrasting and is small in size. If a girl, along with fullness, also has a disproportionate figure, then she can try a combination of large and small cells. So, if you have a fairly voluminous chest and disproportionately narrow hips, you can choose a dress or sundress with a large cage on the skirt and vice versa.
Dotted
Polka dot print has not gone out of fashion for several centuries, and there are reasons for this. The fact is that this particular pattern is the most versatile, along with stripes and flowers. It is interesting that on the figure he works in a special way, which is why he differs from most others.He makes a lush silhouette more proportional only if it is large and vice versa.
With application
Many people think that sundresses with embroidered elements and appliqués are contraindicated for full girls, but this is not the case. In fact, such a beautiful element as embroidery can play the role of a red herring. The only important thing is to make sure that the embroidery is in the area of the silhouette that you are really proud of. The same effect can be obtained by purchasing dresses with translucent guipure inserts and lace. Remember that the decorating elements should not contain massive details in the form of buttons and large beads.
50 years
But for women of respectable age, it is better to give preference to elegant models of plain dresses. Let it be indigo, lilac, cream, beige or black. It is better if the outfit is with a sleeve. It can be very short and cover only the shoulder, as well as elongated by the ¾ type. But special attention should be paid to the length of the outfit. At the age of 50, it is better for women not to wear dresses that expose their knees, but to opt for midi and maxi length dresses.
What to wear
And experts advise combining large-sized sundresses with elongated jackets, cardigans and button-down sweaters. As shoes, it is better to use stiletto sandals in a casual look and classic pumps in a business look. A beach look can be complemented with a stylish hat and sandals, and an evening look with an exquisite bolero. Remember that high heels play a fundamental role for a lush silhouette. It elongates the figure, making it more feminine and graceful.
Shoes and accessories
Another element of successful shoes can be platform sandals or batillons.The first type of shoes is better to complement the everyday look, and the second - business or evening. The best accessory suitable for a short dress or sundress will be a bag that will differ in size. Elongated models of dresses are best combined with small models of bags - clutches or simple ladies' ones.
beautiful images
Properly selected jewelry will help to make an image with a sundress or a dress truly beautiful. They should be massive enough so as not to get lost against the background of a voluminous silhouette, but not too large so as not to add weight. For an evening look, jewelry with precious stones is ideal, and a romantic, casual or business look can be complemented with jewelry. It can be wood, metal or even plastic.
