Elegant dresses for full girls. Plus Size Evening Dresses

In the life of a modern woman, there are many reasons to look chic. Fashion designers and leading Russian factories give ladies with curvaceous forms the opportunity to buy an evening dress in a large size in the online store site. The size range is wide - from 42 to 74 sizes, so every woman will find an outfit to her taste and figure.

Wide range of special occasion outfits

First of all, pay attention to the collections of black dresses. This is a classic for all time. On sale:

• elegant models of smooth fabrics;
• products with lace elements;
• options that successfully combine companion colors and materials with different textures.

But an evening dress for full ladies does not have to be dark. Feel free to choose bright outfits! Of the red shades, it is better to stop at wine, lingonberry, ruby, plum, cherry and burgundy. To bring to the ideal figure a little larger than the standard, light tones of pink, coral and strawberry will help.

What you need to know when choosing an evening dress in an online store?

• Ladies in a body with bright red and burning black hair are better off buying evening dresses in large sizes in dark green, emerald tones and the color of young grass. The cream color attracts with its freshness, but it is suitable only for girls with light and medium fullness, and for large young ladies it is better to abandon models made in light green and mint tones.
• It is permissible for happy owners of chiseled legs to purchase a dress for a solemn occasion up to the middle of the knee and a little higher. Dresses to the middle of the thigh are permissible for puffy ladies of a young age with toned legs.
• Among the shortened options, wrap dress models are suitable for those who want to hide their tummy. And dresses with an open line of shoulders go to ladies with beautiful hands.
• Low-cut clothes can only be worn by young ladies with a seductive breast shape and perfect skin. And, of course, if you buy a floor-length evening dress, you can cover too large hips, mask problematic calves, and hide almost all leg imperfections.

When choosing an exquisite outfit, pay attention to the fact that it is better for women of different ages to choose models that are different from each other for the same event. Buying a dress for graduation, the mother of yesterday's schoolgirl should not overshadow the beauty of her graduate daughter. As well as the bridesmaids and other guests of the wedding ceremony, you should look more modest against the background of the bride, choosing a dress for the wedding.

The rest of the site is an online clothing store for overweight in Moscow, where any plus-size fashionista can buy a factory-made evening dress at an attractive price.

Women of any age, under any circumstances and in any weight want to look fashionable, stylish and fascinating. To help them realize their dreams, many designers create entire collections for curvaceous girls and women. One of the favorite elements of the wardrobe of almost all women is dresses, the choice of which must be approached responsibly, because not all models and fabrics look equally good on slender women and ladies “in juice”. This season, designers have prepared many surprises for fashionistas, including light, elegant, and at the same time carefree and flirty dresses, among which every woman can choose an option for herself.

Styles and fabrics of elegant dresses 2018

When choosing a dress for a gala event, first of all, you need to pay attention to the fabric from which it is made. It should be quite dense, but at the same time not too rough. For holidays and celebrations, outfits made of satin, chiffon with the addition of Lurex, as well as thin linen and cotton are best suited. But to choose too shiny fabric, such as satin, you need to be careful. No less important is the pattern (print) applied to the fabric, it should not be too large, but not small either.

As for models with thin straps, it is better to refuse them, since they look a little ridiculous on women with curvaceous forms. However, if you want to wear an outfit with just such a top, you can hide the straps by decorating them with a beautiful shawl or scarf. Among the whole variety of styles of weekend dresses for obese women, the most popular are:

V-shaped neckline;

A-shaped silhouette;

Greek style;

free cut models;

• "case";

  models with high waist;

  dressing gown.

Models with contrasting inserts look very beautiful and elegant on overweight women, allowing you to visually correct the contours of the figure and skillfully mask extra pounds.

Airy layered outfits and flared sleeves are just what is suitable for a celebration. Thanks to the presence of several layers of fabric and folds on the sleeves, it is quite possible to hide full arms, a tummy and hips.

Models with an asymmetrical neckline look great on full girls, especially if it is in the décolleté area. Such a neckline will be able to switch the attention of others from the stomach and full hips to the upper body, focusing it on a magnificent bust.

Evening elegant dresses for obese girls

Not only the owners of miniature forms in clothes of small sizes can look beautiful and elegant! The most important thing is to choose the right color and style of the outfit and extra pounds will not be noticeable to anyone. A big role in how well clothes will sit on a full woman is played by her color and texture of the fabric.

Most often, noble fabrics such as velvet, satin and silk are used to create elegant evening dresses; chiffon is also very popular. If we are talking about evening dresses for lush velvet women, then it is better to give your preference to models in rich green, cherry and blue colors. And of course, everyone's favorite classic black color of an evening dress, combined with beautiful jewelry, will definitely make a woman more slender and attractive.

The choice of models from satin should be approached very carefully and chosen with great care, since the brilliance of this material does not always advantageously emphasize the appetizing forms of full ladies. Some models of satin dresses with various draperies and other voluminous elements are completely “contraindicated”, as they visually enlarge the figure.

As for the length of evening dresses for obese women, the “floor-length” models look especially beautiful on them. Great option evening dress will be a long dress made of silk or chiffon in the Greek style. If you need to disguise the fullness in the waist and abdomen, a model with a high waist will fit perfectly in this case. 3/4 sleeves will help hide the fullness of the arms.

Chiffon dresses for overweight ladies

Women want to look feminine and fashionable not only at celebrations and various events, but also in everyday life. To disguise extra pounds and smooth out the flaws of your figure, it is not at all necessary to hide in dark shapeless hoodies! This is especially true on hot summer days, when too dense fabric of clothes or an extra fold on it makes being outdoors uncomfortable.

On any day, even the hottest, you can be beautiful, fashionable and feel comfortable. And light and airy outfits made of chiffon will help in this, which, due to the lightness and “fluidity” of the material, gently fit the body and successfully hide many shortcomings.

In order not to be mistaken when choosing a chiffon dress for your appetizing forms, experts recommend remembering the following “abilities” of various styles:

dresses in the style of babydolls and empires will distract the eyes of others from the hips and favorably emphasize the chest;

a model of a dress in the form of a trapezoid with a high waist will make the image more airy;

sarong-style dresses, due to the presence of drapery in moderation, will “hide” figure flaws;

chiffon outfits with flounced sleeves will help hide arms and shoulders, making the look romantic and light.

As for the color of light chiffon dresses, there is no limit to fantasy. It can be one-color or two-color outfits, multi-colored models with various patterns and prints, which should be medium in size. It is better to forget about such patterns as “peas” in any variations, various squares and other clearly defined geometric shapes.

Warm knitted and summer light dresses for full ones - now you will easily and quickly choose them in the shops of your city. Because at first sight you will see exactly your dress- the style that will visually emphasize all the advantages of your full figure, and carefully hide weaknesses, align the proportions in the most successful way for you.

In order for each thesis to be printed most COMPLETELY AND CLEARLY, I will first demonstrate all the rules in black. The black dress most clearly and contrastingly reflects the essence of each fashion rule for the full. And photo additions in the form of dresses of all other colors only prove that this rule is common to the entire color palette.

So, let's figure out how to dress in a dress for a woman full of significant virtues.

Dive into the world of plus size dresses.

COLUMN DRESS

for women

with a full figure of any type.

For obese women, a long COLUMN dress made of dense flowing knitwear is very complimentary.

The column dress already speaks for itself with its name. Dressed in such a dress, a woman is like slender Greek column made of noble black marble (photo below).

The main condition of such a dress is a very DENSE fabric that does not fit tightly around the body. That is, knitwear should be thick (in no case thin). Thin jersey wrinkles into thin folds that stick to your body and only emphasize its flabby bumps, fatty bulges.

No - we need thick, heavy knitwear. Heavy fabric will not stick to the body - it will flow around it. And you will get a slender smooth silhouette - where all your irregularities will be smoothed out.

The column dress, in turn, has THREE TYPES OF STYLE.

Column dress with TUNIC style. This dress has a free cut, with a weak fit to the body. Just in the photo below this style - in whole left photo, and cut into two separate parts of the bodice and skirt (right photo).

In other colors, this principle remains unchanged. The column woman is good in any color incarnation of the dress.

The second main condition for such a column dress is that the FABRIC SHOULD NOT SHINE. If the fabric reflects light in the form of highlights and reflections, it will fill you up. ONLY MATTE FABRIC that absorbs light and diffuses a dull black glow (Abyss color dress). The even blackness of the dress will visually align all the wrong lines of your body - it will give the silhouette unity and uniformity. You will be stately and silhouetted - like a goddess cast from a black stone.

A column dress can have a clear fitted silhouette. - with a long hem straight cut - pencil (as in the photo below). Such a dress for the full is left without unnecessary frills in the hip area (maximum straight cut along one leg). But the bodice (upper part) is decorated with additional style geometry. This may be an interesting decollete line (as in the left photo below) with a tasty cut along the hollow of the breasts.

Or the bodice of the dress can have feminine geometric inserts made of paired fabric - more transparent or with interwoven gold thread (as in the right photo below). This does not prevent the dress from remaining a faithful assistant in aligning your body and turning it into a SINGLE Slender GREEK COLUMN.

For a column dress in the CASE style, knitwear of the highest density is taken (as in the photo below with black dresses).

A column dress is often made in the style of a GREEK DRESS. For "Greek styles" they take fabric of a lower density than for a sheath dress. This is also knitwear, but not thin (like underwear) - small folds of thin knitwear sticking to the body will ruin everything. We take thick heavy knitwear that will flow richly and weightily in Greek tucks in the form of EVEN AND VERTICAL FOLDS - under the weight of its knitted weight.

And we get a rich dress for a full woman, which evens out her body, smoothing and hiding irregularities (folds on the back or stomach) thanks to the thickness of the fabric, and elongates the figure thanks to the length and vertical flowing folds of the cut.

Column dress from the photo below HAS A BODY ON THE DRAWINGS. This circumstance allows the shoulders and axillary folds to remain open - it looks beautiful on a young elastic body. And if you are not fond of sports, then you certainly want to hide these places - then your styles with a small sleeve in the photo above.

In color schemes - this style of the Greek column dress for a full woman looks good in JUICY DENSE COLORS. The main rule is the haze, the “non-glare” of the fabric. Shiny fabric will add extra volume to the bulges.

DRESS-CASE

style for obese women.

The most classic dress for curvy women is the SHELL DRESS. The clear lines of the silhouette + DENSE FABRIC help this dress do its job - SET A SMOOTH AND CLEAR SILHOUETTE to your body.

The main condition for such a dress is a dense fabric that holds its shape well (does not spread under your sides, but evenly and calmly presses against them and gives your body a clear elastic shape.

The second condition for a successful sheath dress for obese women is closed armhole lines- that is, your shoulders and armpits should be covered. Here is the photo below thanks to extended shoulder line our underarm folds are closed (although the dress is sleeveless, but the underarm fold is not visible).

Often, elegant sheath dress models are sewn from lace fabric. It is these options for full dresses that we see in the photo below. Note that triangular neckline visually lengthens the neck, gives your face additional ovality.

Even for a very full figure, you can pick up (or sew) a neat sheath dress. Most often in full models of this style shoulders are covered with a small sleeve or drapery.

But even if you bought such a sleeveless dress, you can close the armpit area simply throwing a jacket, jacket or blazer over the dress.

Especially since a jacket or blazer thrown over does a very important job of adding Slenderness to you. Look at the photo below - how the jacket cuts off your sides and you become visually thinner than you would be without a jacket, blazer.

About these and other laws of "visual harmony" I dwelled in more detail and in detail in my two articles.

Even a small leather jacket immediately reduces your width. Just do not break the rule - a dress under the very throat will visually CUT YOUR NECK (as you can see on the black dress below). Therefore, either the neckline of a full dress should be more open - or you need to hang jewelry on this neckline zone that will visually lengthen your neck.

But still, it is better when a sheath dress for a large woman is sewn FROM A DENSE FABRIC. The tighter, the better such a dress will hold its shape - your new shape. The clear lines of the dress will give clear lines to your figure.
That is why dresses for overweight ones are often compacted due to STITCHES (or they immediately choose the fabric where these rivets-stickers are already provided by the textile manufacturer).

In addition, the geometry of the riveted lines creates an additional visual effect that makes you appear slimmer.

And if you put on a short jacket or jacket on top of such a correct sheath dress (that is, as we advised above - cut off the shoulders and cut off the sides) - then we get a completely slender juicy woman.

Also, heavy fabric is often used for sheath dresses for a full woman, with a metallic thread sewn through the entire pattern, or embroidery with small beads is added.

And on sheath dresses for overweight women, a contrasting graphic effect (cropped sides) or diagonal lines (as in the photo below) is often used. This is done in order to bring down the proportions, visually divert attention from the size or irregularities of the body.

DRESS WITH DEcolletage

elegant option

for a full woman.

Very often knitted tight sheath dresses have a beautiful, decoratively designed neckline. And this is understandable. The most beautiful place of a magnificent woman is her breasts bursting with passion. This attraction factor possible and necessary emphasize. As long as you're young and on another diet, and your skin doesn't show the signs of aging that come with age or cutting back on food.

Smooth smooth skin in a lush young body is only beautiful, and nothing else. Therefore, young plump girls no need to be shy try on such open dresses. You have no idea what kind of candy you can turn into. And in deaf-closed dresses, you still have time to go to the office, and then when the skin is not as fresh as in 20 years. Don't hide beauty while you're young.

And if you do not risk exposing your armpits, then you can look for styles of dresses for full ones that open the neckline, but carefully cover the risky areas of your shoulders. In the photo below, we see just such dresses - the axillary folds are closed, and the hollows of the lush breasts and the gentle bend of the collarbones are open - that's what we need.

STRAIGHT FIT Dresses

for obese women.

One-piece non-adjacent styles of dresses for full ones are models created for curvy ladies who want to hide their folds on their stomachs. This dress is especially relevant in the cool season, when we are required to wear tights. The waist part of tights always divides our stomach into two rollers, and any adjacent dress gives out this ugly horizontal seam on the stomach. Therefore, in the season of tights, we dive into straight styles of dresses, those that do not stick to the body and do not give out the relief of seams from underwear and tights.

Here in the photo below we see just such models of dresses for large women. By the way, this dress is comfortable to wear. sleeveless straight blazers(as in the right photo below).

Dresses for full STRAIGHT CUT can be sewn from lace or perforated fabrics. This gives them additional decorativeness and femininity. Your image immediately becomes tender and femininely fragile. Good effect, agree.

Festive dressy versions of this style can use sequined fabric or sheer chiffon patches over the entire dress or just on the sleeves.

Straight dresses for full, in the same free cut, you can buy for the summer - choose large sizes from light light fabrics.

And warm models of dresses for curvaceous women - made of dense knitwear with woolen thread.

DRESS - TUNIC

for overweight women with a belly.

A loose-fitting dress does not have to be a straight silhouette. Trapeze is also a good shape for a dress suitable for overweight women. Among plus size dresses, this style is quite common, but we are afraid to try it on, because it seems to us that it will not sit well on us. But it's worth trying it on once to fall in love with your body in this new dress.

A-line dress usually short in length. And in its cut it looks like a tunic. It can be asymmetrical (shorter in front than in the back).

The elongated models of the asymmetric tunic dress stretch your figure even better. The length of the back of the hem works for additional growth and slimness (like a column dress), and the hem raised in front allows you to show the legs at their most beautiful part (the shin, even for overweight women, always looks beautiful and neat).

Elegant tunic dresses are often decorated with transparent inserts in the bodice. Or the upper shoulder part is made of lace fabric (as in the photo of evening tunic dresses for obese women below).

Dress tunic with neckline "a la peasant". Exhibits the most correct part of the body of a plump woman - smooth, sleek shoulders. Folds in lightweight fabric hide excess weight - and you look slimmer.

Be sure to find in stores and try on yourself plus size wide tunic dresses with OPEN SHOULDERS and thin shoulder straps. Their cut allows you to hide the underarm lines, but expose smooth, perfect shoulders. Every plump woman shoulders are a beautiful part of the body so let's show this beauty. And let the tummy hide in the folds of the Greek tunic.

And don't forget to put sunscreen on your shoulders if you're going to be in the hot sun for a long time.

With a tunic dress for full looks good wide brim hat. And pay attention to the short tunic dress you can wear with shorts.

The outfit in the photo below just proves that even a plump woman can even buy short denim shorts for herself, if before that she has acquired a comfortable wide tunic. Agree with a T-shirt or shirt, these shorts would look sad (protruding fat rollers on the stomach, and all that ...). And the wide tunic fixed everything - and you can open your legs as much as possible without fear for how the rest of your body looks.

Tunic came to us from Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Therefore, shoes for such a style of dress for full ones should also be designed in the style of the times of chariots and amphitheaters.

Roman sandals or gladiator sandals- these are the perfect shoes for a tunic dress for full ones.

Gladiator sandals can have low or high lacing (photo below).

And be sure to buy in the store sheer dress in your size. It is better to choose such a long tunic made of thin chiffon in a simple color: black or white (this way it will be easier to pick up grassroots things under it). See what interesting and boring images a plump girl with such a transparent dress can come up with.

Dress shirt

for obese women.

A shirt dress is a style that works like lifesaver for all obese women. It can be made from thin, flowing fabric, or from loose denim, or from safari-colored protective fabric, or from standard plaid shirting.

Many long summer dresses for full ones are styled like a shirt dress in their bodices. And this is not without reason - a shirt cut and a neckline with a number of buttons visually stretches the figure, and opens the neck.

Shirt dress for plus size women can be sewn from transparent fabric. And they wear such a dress over other opaque things in your wardrobe.

Sheer airy fabric gives your silhouette the SAME LIGHTNESS AND AIR. You automatically lose a few pounds in such a dress for the full.

Dresses for full

with hoists under the chest.

Girls with full forms have one advantage over skinny ones. They always have beautiful big breasts. And this circumstance should be used.

Excess fullness on the stomach does not always allow you to choose dresses with a waist on the lower back. But on the other hand, you can afford all models of dresses where the waist goes just under the bust (as in the photo below).

Such models of dresses for full ones your style. You yourself can search for dresses in online stores and buy them with confidence - they will look good on you at the very first fitting.

Dresses with a hem from the chest often have beautiful drapery-bun, which radiates from the central point under the breast down along the hem.

Wrap dresses

for obese women.

Women of large size are accustomed to drape themselves in bathrobes, pulling themselves with a soft belt. These are comfortable home clothes for obese women. And it’s not for nothing that we intuitively choose a dressing gown for magnificent forms. Robe cut - style with the smell of two halves on top of each other- Looks very complimentary on overweight women.

This principle of a careless cut was transferred by designers to dresses for full ones. Cross smell of two halves of the bodice visually makes the chest a little smaller. Plus, due to the smell, drapery lines are created that mask extra bulges on the body of a full woman.

Wrap dress can be tailored thick knitted fabric(by no means thin).

The thinner the knit fabric, the cheaper your dress will look - like underwear. Only tight jersey will create beautiful clear lines of drapery and hide the bumps in your body.

And even better if the wrap-around dress is made from simple NON-STRETCH fabrics. There can be a smooth dense fabric with the addition of synthetics (so as not to wrinkle), thick cotton (which is still wrinkled) or thin chiffon fabrics (as in the last version from the photo below).

Dresses with drapes

for a full figure.

Draperies were invented by cunning people. How wonderful it is when a dress can hide any sloppy part of your body in the folds and tucks of the fabric. From the outside, it will look like an interesting cut element - and only you will know that it hides the very place that you deliberately want not to show to others.

Clever drapery can reduce too protruding breasts (like Verka Serduchka). Neat draping can hide fat ridges at the waist. The twists, twists, and knots of stretch fabric can help eliminate the seam from tights that would otherwise show through the fabric of the dress.

Beautiful drapery-knot can emphasize your waist, and divert attention from too wide hips. Beautiful dresses for full with draperies must be measured - on hangers and store mannequins they look like not your dress - but on your forms this dress can do a miracle. The drapery and direction of the warehouse can work out in the most wonderful way and you will turn into a beauty. Such dresses for full ones - you must definitely wear them. Only the reflection in the mirror will reveal to you the magic power of the dress. Do not be lazy and do not hesitate to measure.

ASYMMETRIC DRAPING works best on obese women - with tension on one side of the dress. Diagonal creases align and bring in their lines, not allowing the dress to show your lines of fat folds.

Drapery-swing or Roman draperies on one shoulder are beautiful both for simple summer dresses and evening dresses for full ones.

The most successful dress color for a full woman is marsala color(color of red wine). This color (provided that the fabric does not shine) removes several kilograms at once.

Remember this color in the photo below - it is recognized as the THINEST color for a figure. Do not miss the opportunity to try on a dress of this color in the store, even if you don’t like it on the shoulders. Do not be too lazy to put on yourself - you will see a changed body in the mirror, the body of your dreams. You will definitely want to buy it.

Try on draped dresses in heavy rich fabrics. Heavy thick fabric always gives a beautiful luxurious drapery. A thin fabric looks like a wrinkled rag. Choose drapery dresses made of dense fabrics and be sure to try them on yourself. You will be surprised how expensive and stylish you will look in the mirror of the fitting room. A real royally luxurious plump woman. A woman full of beauty and charm.

Life is too short to waste it on diets, greedy men and bad moods.

PATTERN DRESSES

For obese women.

Fashion designers have noticed that a plump woman in a peignoir or combination always looks beautiful. And so they began to sew dresses for the full in the style of a jumper. Dresses-combinations for full should not be made of thin fabrics (flowing silk and similar slippery materials are not needed here).

Even in the combination style, you need to choose a dense, shape-holding fabric. Which will not stick to the body, but will beautifully frame it, give a clear feminine silhouette.

GRAPHIC EFFECT

on dresses for full.

Well now let's talk about visual effects, which are often used by designers on dresses for overweight women and girls in order to DISTORT THEIR REAL PROPORTIONS.

The most common effect is darkening the sides of the dress. Darkening the sides - we kind of cut them off, and the body becomes narrower than it really is.

Most often, this can be found on black-gray-white office dresses, on cocktail bustier dresses (as in the photo below).

And also on colored summer sundresses for full ones. This summer dress is oversized. can be found in online stores and bought immediately without trying on. It is sewn without unnecessary darts and will sit quietly on your figure.

The condition is that the fabric is dense, and the silhouette of the insert is graphically clear.

Look for these styles of plus size dresses and don't be intimidated by how rough they look on hangers. Believe on the body this dress will reveal its charm.

The vertical stripe always stretched the figure. A thin stripe on the dress creates a colorful vertical effect that slims you.

And horizontal stripes do not spoil your figure at all - if you are wearing a dress of the right style. As we have already said, a column dress always works for your harmony, even if the column dress is dotted with horizontal stripes.
