7 beliefs about plus size things that are no longer relevant

Plus size girls are often confused when choosing clothes that suit them. The fact is that there are many stereotypes and myths that impose only outdated restrictions and prohibitions. Looking at many celebrities, it becomes clear that even with non-standard shapes you can dress stylishly, beautifully and variedly. What myths should plus-size women forget about?

myths about plus size

Wear only black

For years we have been hearing about a strict rule: black is the most slimming color. Yes, this is partly true. But color alone is not enough for a magical transformation. The style, fabric and many other additional factors must also “match”.

Therefore, dressing in black from head to toe is definitely not worth it. It is better to dilute it with other colors, preferably bright and/or light. For example, a brightly colored blouse would be ideal for black trousers, and a light/bright dress would be ideal for a black jacket. A dark evening dress must be complemented with bright accessories.

myths 2

No large prints

It is not clear where this myth came from and why large prints are supposedly created only for slim women.But many plus-size beauties strictly follow this rule, not allowing themselves any patterns other than small ones. Although in fact, small drawings visually make you look even more fat.

myth 3

Stylists recommend trying the opposite advice. The larger the body size, the larger the print should be. But only if these are actual patterns, and not incomprehensible clumsy spots.

Stripes and polka dots are an absolute taboo

Another common misconception that significantly limits owners of appetizing shapes in creating trendy images. In fact, polka dots and stripes need to be worn and combined with other clothes.

Forget about layers

Everyone knows - don’t dress “like a cabbage” and you will look slimmer. This is partly true, but layering can be different. If you learn to use it correctly, then, on the contrary, you can visually stretch the silhouette and reduce the volume of the figure. This effect, for example, is achieved by contrasting (color, style, texture) clothing.

Voluminous clothes are our everything

This belief turns many overweight girls into massive and shapeless ones. Don't try to hide your figure under baggy and overly loose clothes. It is better to experiment and choose a style that will favorably emphasize the appetizing curves of the body.

Important! You shouldn't wear completely tight-fitting clothes that look more like a second skin. It is enough to simply emphasize the advantages of the figure, giving it a clear and balanced shape.

Stylists recommend choosing clothes based on your figure, taking into account the exact size, general style and preferences.For example, romantic delicate dresses, overalls, pleated skirts, denim - all this and much more can bring fresh notes to a plus-size wardrobe.

Bright colors are prohibited

Another myth that can and should be destroyed. Why deprive yourself of bright colors and a great mood?! The main thing is that the outfit is not too colorful or tacky. And also, the owner of bright clothes should feel as comfortable and confident as possible in them.
