Spring/Summer is the perfect time for snazzing up a pair of shorts! But sadly, plus size women tend to shy away from wearing shorts because we are simply too conscious about revealing our luscious thighs and/or annoying cellulites. Hehehe. Or maybe we have not found any shorts in store yet that fits us comfortably. Nonetheless, I believe tailored shorts are just as awesome on plus size women as it is on the runway models.
So here's why you should show off those beautiful legs you've been hiding far too long(:
For spring 2012 plus size women SHOULD wear tailored shorts. The good thing about this style is its versatility. We usually see tailored shorts paired with blazer or suits. However, it can be worn even simply with a pair of shirt. Plus size women can and should embrace tailored shorts because of its streamlined design that gives the illusion of shapely/proportionate outline and also because it comes in various fabrics that suits different occasions. Tailored shorts are flirty, chic and elegant all at the same time. ^.^ You can wear tailored shorts from day to night and therefore it should be a wardrobe staple for all plus size women.
Tailored shorts can be paired with any top that complements your body type. For spring 2012 tailored shorts are more robust and luxurious compared to the past season short trends. The construction is more unique and different fabrics like silk, suede and leather are used. The smart cuts are perfect for plus size women as mentioned; it is visually-enhancing. There are countless of styles that you can experiment with your tailored shorts, just leave it up to your imagination!
Plus size women can wear tailored shorts with a mid to high waist cut. This cut can add an illusion of longer legs. You can pair the high waist tailored shorts with a classy chiffon top, satin blouse and blazers to evoke a chic, classy and domineering look.
A Bermuda tailored shorts is also another variation to this trend. It has a longer hemline which is perfect for plus size women. It’s a great clothing item for sunny SIngapore because it’s laidback and comfortable. Choose Bermuda tailored shorts with a loud color and pair it with feminine tops for a great contrast.
That's all for the mini update. Hope you liked the post! xoxo
