Plush Fashion Basics

ADVICE TIPS FROM FASHION DESIGNER

DOUGLAS SAY'S


What’s the biggest fashion tip you can provide a plus size woman?

The basic, basic thing I can tell any full-figured woman to do is to wear the proper undergarment. Whether it’s a girdle, whether it’s a spank … whatever it is, where it in a size smaller, too. Wear something that’s going to just hold you in, so that you’re not jiggling all over the place. That’s the foundation of everything. That body has to be tight.
It’s like makeup. You have to put on your foundation, then your powder, then your color. There’s always an underneath something going on. For the plus woman, that something must be right and tight and holding your body together.

Then secondly, they need Douglas Says.

What styles best fit a bigger woman?

A-line is a great silhouette for them and the wrap dress is their best friend because whether you lose or gain weight, you can adjust the wrapping on the dress.

Also, you can’t go wrong with custom-made. If it’s cut for you and with you in mind, then it can’t be wrong. That’s why it’s nice to have something made to fit your shape and not buying off the rack. You’ll always look good in it because it’s made with your measurements and your body type in mind.
