Choosing Plus Size Clothing to Flatter Your Fuller Figure

There are some simple tips to choosing plus size clothing that will look great on you:-

1. Choosing outfits that will emphasise your waist and show off your shapely figure
2. Choose formal dresses in an A-line style, especially when choosing a one-off outfit for the mother of the bride
3. Where possible go for bias cuts, especially in formal outfits, as they can be very flattering 
4. Remember, that darker colours are more slimming, so try and stay away from brighter, more vivid colors
5. Choose a color to suit your skin and hair colour, find out more from the Color Me Beautiful website or books
6. Remember to accessorise with earrings, necklaces, watches or bracelets and bags for the perfect look

For those special occasions, when choosing a prom dress or wedding gown, ask a friend or family member to go along with you to help you choose something in the right colour and style.  Allow plenty of time to choose and enjoy shopping for your new outfit.

Once you've chosen your dress, shop for the right accessories, shoes, and make-up and of course create an amazing hairstyle. 

On the "big night", if you've spent all this time preparing, you're going to step out of your front door as if you are a model stepping onto the catwalk!
