thongs lots of them
modest. i don't think it's attractive for super plus sized gals to be wearing those sphagetti back tops, or short shirts that show off not only their cleavage, but the top of their stomach (ewww) Maybe it's just that its summer. idk.
Modesty is underrated.
I'm really upset that the only skirts that are punk/gothic looking are really expensive as plus size. Along with corsets.
I like plaid stuff because it has a lot of personality. All of these babydoll tshirts girls are wearing won't fit plus size women and it's annoying.
There are also the lingerie that is too small for plus size women.
Or bathing suits! OMG! Plus size bathing suits are HORRIBLE! They have skirts and stuff with them and that's just HIDEOUS!
Create something that has personality. Talk to your sister.
We'd probably like something that could show us off a little bit because, honey, my man loves me and my body and he wants me to flaunt it. Respectively of course.
So maybe something that's a bit tight to show off the cleavage?
Anything will work just as long as we have something ELSE to shop for!
Thanks, I'll be looking for your line soon =)
I wish they would make a nice shirtwaisted dress...out of a sturdier fabric.
I have found tons of cute clothes at a store called torrid (check the site out) they're just expensive as hell...if its not what you described anything good is just too damn much. I like the gothic look myself (im a size 16/18) so think hot topic for plus size...?
Well I'm a size 18 and the one thing that I really hate is that we have to pay 2 extra bucks for cute PJ's.
Tank Tops are really nice and maybe some type of skirts that go with it. I find really cute clothes in the side shops that are like in the Square and the biggest size they have is a large. I went in one once and absolutly nothing in my size or even close. it is so sad.
Well, I'm only of the age of 11, pre-teen I guess. But I am ALSO one of the young ladies who suffers from over weight. I would like to help you very much, And here are MY suggestions...
Simple but Cute look, clean look, Preppy type.
Jeans that have hearts, or little symbols and such..
Capris, Cute type, make the legs look less.. bulky?
Print designs, such as black and white polka dots...
Polo shirts, Hollister type shirts also :]
Well, I hope this worksss..
-Me :]
I'm a size 10 also and even in the normal world, I still find it difficult to find clothing that look good on me. I am finding that shirts that skim over my belly (not babydoll), cling to my bust with a V-neck or scoop/boat neck and stop at midthigh are the most flattering. For pants, I find that straight leg, flare or boot cut with a mid waist fits best; it prevents muffin top and the wider leg creates a smooth line. Any shirts or dresses that cover the shoulder or stop at mid elbow are also very flattering because a lot of women are sensitive about their arms. One thing you can always count on in plus sized women are their large busts, so you need cuts that flatter the bustline also, like an empire waist with a v neck. No large or busy patterns, or metallics. Just neutral, solid colors with a brighter burst of color in the bust area to draw the eye.
u r plus size..... im a size 1 :P yay me i used to be a size 8
PS: I no longer want to be friends with vicoria. She is too no fun. She is a total brown noser and she really acts like she could be from old house on the prarie! Her room is all white, with only a bed, and the only movie she likes is cool runnings. And she just moved here 3 years ago, and bella has been my friend since kindergarten, and we are 13 now. I just need a way to find out how to get bella back! (without victoria) and no im not jealous, because i have other friends, and victoria does not.
ps: Bella think victoria and i like eatchother, and has no idea about this competition. Plus, victoria and I are nice to each others faces, and nobody knows we hate eachother, except my parents.
PS: Ive only been nice to her. Ive never been mean to her, only recently when she told me that she was going to join jazz band with Bella (ps she hates band) and i told her, "No, i dont want to be just like her"
I think that it's good that you wish to maintain your personality and not stoop to her level. and as you said Victoria does not have any friends so naturally she will be protective to the one that she thinks cares for her. One suggestion is to help Victoria get more friends so that she doesn't stick to Bella.
To be honest, I think you need to grow up.
umm I'm sorry if this offends you, but people just don't "decide" that they don't like each other anymore. I'm sure there was something that you were doing that 'victoria' found offensive or something of the sort. maybe talk to 'bella' and see if she can get 'victoria' to back off, or hows this- don't talk to 'victoria' anymore. Honestly, though, its a two way street. There's no way that everyhting is her fault, and I'm sure you've gotten more possessive over your mutual friend since your ex-friend started "taking over". That's just how it works.
Even the fact that you're posting this on the internet is showing how you're getting clingy too and how petty your fight is....
Find some way to deal with it. you're the onyl one that knows all the details so you're the only one that can solve the problem.
Or you could just suck it up.
This happened to me in middle school with my very best friend. A new girl moved down the street from her and was in the same class room as her. I lived farther away and didn't ride the same bus nor have any classes with my best friend except P.E. She and the other girl spent more time together and made plans for the weekends and most of the time I wasn't included. Whenever I would call and ask her if she'd like to spend the night she would always have something to do with her "new" friend. Only once in awhile would she be free for the weekend and stay over. It only got worse in high school because we never had any classes and she met more new friends. It was very hard for me and sad. After high school, when we both married, we became friends again and although the other girl was still in town, they no longer were friends. I guess what I'm trying to say is that friends will come and friends will go, but in the long run, true friends will stay, but probably after they've grown up.
Why dont you and "Bella" just hang out together on weekends and talk on the phone? "Victoria" dosent even have to know, it's really none of her business at all. You can also try ignoring "Victoria" completely so that no really big confrontation happens between you two since yall arent cool with eachother., and when "Victoria" comes around you when your hanging with "Bella" just tell her you'll call her later and go hang with your other friends!
well im a plus size woman and i really love the clothes that guess has and banna republic i love that stiyle of cloths but thay dont ever make it in my size 20. make jeans that really fit and dont make them look cheep or look like for old woman
a common skill in other countries is learning how to sew
get a pattern, choose your fabric, take some lessons and empower/ free yourself
Hey what a wonderful question! Too many times I try on clothes that look beautiful on the hanger but when I try it on...YUCK!!! Even though it's my size it wasn't cut for my shape.
I like boot-cut pants. That's a flattering shape for me. I need something that follows the shape of my waist on the sides but is loose around the stomach...otherwise i look pregnant. I don't look good in shirt that is waist-length...but something just a bit longer then the waist look better on me.
I get scared of too much colorful patterns (you know, like something from the 60's) on a shirt because the bigger you are the more fabric you need and it looks like you're wearing a blanket o_O But it does look cute on slimmer girls.
I can go on and on about what I like ...^_^'
But yeah I look for things that cover my stomach, I LOVE empire-waist cut shirts. Those are so flattering.
BTW, I would kill KILL KILL to be a size 10 like you!! All of my friends are around your size and I look SO much bigger then them.
Good luck with everything ^_____^
I am not so much a plus sized girl, although a lot of my friends are. One dream I think we all have? Clothes that realize we're not all built like small boys. There's a huge diff b/w my hips and waist. I wear low rises a lot, but I'm really tired of having my bum hanging out of all my clothes. But no one much makes clothes for girls with big butts and little waists. On the other hand, my sister in law has slim hips and a big belly. She can't find clothes that accomodate her stomach but don't fall off her skinny butt.
I'd love to see a clothing line that acknowledges that whole apple/pear problem. That's my dream.
ask your sister what kind of clothes she would like, and then design them as a plus size. nowadays clothes ligns are only for skinnys. my sister is a big girl and it hurts her when we go shopping and we can't find anything her size. it hurts me, too.
A friend once asked Me a very similar question. My reply was that, " Thin is the shape You are before You become cuddly". She liked that. I Personally like 'Round'. When people tell Me to 'get into shape', I remind Them that 'round' is a shape, and that I am a PERFECT round! It is the shape of pearls and this planet, pregnant Women and cartoon balloons containing good ideas!
Also many of the styles that regular sizes come in would look good on plus sizes its just that no one makes them bigger, just some extra fabric. I really like button down fitted blouses, they're comfortable and slimming.
All plus sized girls want to look slimmer. I would pick something in dark colors that doesnt emphasize the size. Nothing skimpy. Nobody wants to see us in something too revealing! I think plus sizes have improved over the years, but I agree with you. They are kind of "old-ladyish" I hope you are very successful with your clothing line. I would like to have more options to choose from.
I would like to see a shirt that is bigger around the bust and arms not to be so long. I don't know if because someone is bigger means you are taller or want to cover your bottom half too. I am 5'2. If I find a shirt that fits then it lays below my hips and make my legs look stubby and makes me look even bigger yet.
First of all, we don't like the fact that "plus size" ends at 28. If they do go to 32-34 they are always "out".
It also seems like plus size clothes come in stretchy material that clinges to your body. I don't understand this. I want something to hide it not show it off.
Styles I like empire waist b/c that is the smallest part. For me, I would rather have thick straps or sleeved shirts as I don't want to show my arm. Also, longer shirts to hide the lower roll (that shows up under the pants). That's all I have now because it's late. Email me and I will come up with more.
GOOD LUCK!!! I really hope you suceed!
basically, i find i like a lot of the styles but everything is made to fit a size 4 figure. tops are too clingy and short.
I'm a 24-26 very big girl and I wear the best of everything my clothes only look maternity when I'm pregnant. I wear anything a person a size 10 wear and I wear it well. I too design clothes for larger teen and Young women. try looking at Torrid.com, oldnavy.com and Alloy.com you'll find the only thing different between our clothes and regular sizes is the fullness of the cut. Please don't discriminate! big women can wear fashionable styles that small women wear and still look classy, sexy and tasteful. we can look go too, I know I sure do!!
I don't know if I am welcome to answer this question since I am 32, but I'll chime in anyways. I am a pretty tall woman; I am 5'9 and wear a size 12-14. For the office, Nothing looks better on a plus size woman than a tailored cut. Large shirts with no tailoring makes a large woman look sloppy. As for shirts, i think you should remeber that larger women also may have a larger bust, so I ould create room in the chest region too . Evening wear; dresses that show off some leg, but leave alot to the imagination. Also, when it comes to sleeves in any shirt, makes sur you make them wide enough so that the shirt doesn't look like its going to cut off the circulation! Weh it comes to csual wear, jeans, should have a lycra in them, so they can mold to the shape without looking too tight. Also try using colors that are fun and flirty. I like the off the shoulder tee shirt, with a tank underneath on a plus size woman and a great fitting jean. Make sure that you make proper sized accessories for these clothes; big girls can rock sling belts, too!
I like clothes that give me room in the bust and the tummy. But I hate shirts that look like boxes. I like darts and slimming in the sides, but flattering. I also like pants that don't have waistband gap. Something that's also slimming.
