Here are some dos and don’ts to dressing like true plus-size models:

Do: Choose Your Actual Size

Wearing a shirt too small or big for you will not flatter your look. Instead, you will look uncomfortable wearing the shirt and this won’t be appealing on you. When you wear clothes that are too large for you, it will make you look sloppy and larger than you really are. This is why you should go for clothing which is your actual size so you can flatter your curves.

Do: Emphasize Your Facial Features

Even though you dress really well, your face is still the first thing that people will take notice of. This is why you should accentuate above your shoulder area. One way you can make yourself look more appealing is to have a good hairstyle that will show off your features. Also, make it a point to wear the right makeup whenever you go out in public. You do not need to wear full makeup but a little eye shadow, mascara, and lip gloss can work wonders.

Do: Accessorize Your Outfit

You can stand out from the crowd even if you are wearing a plain shirt with jeans. All you need to do is put on some accessories like a scarf or some jewelry. You can also bring the right handbag to make your look well-organized. By investing in accessories that you can easily match with the clothes in your wardrobe, you’ll be able to highlight what you look like.

Don’t: Stick to Black or Dark Colors

There are lots of women who choose to wear only black as their primary choice of color for their clothing. Even though this is a slimming color, there is no reason as to why you should just limit your wardrobe to this color. Instead of turning all your clothes to black, try to experiment with other colors. Pick out a dress style that flatters your body yet comes in a color other than black. This way, you can add color to your clothes.

Don’t: Take Your Undergarments for Granted

Just because people can’t see your undergarments, does not mean you should take them for granted. When shopping for lingerie, see to it that you choose one with the right size. This is because if you wear undergarments that are too small, it will give you an extra and unappealing cleavage. Go for high-quality bras that give support so you can wear just about anything and be confident that you look great.
