Plus Size Winter Jacket - the Mega Trend!
Oversized is a fashion perennial. With the plus size winter jacket, the curvy woman has found her it-piece for this winter.
If you think curvy women in particular can't pull off oversized, you're greatly mistaken! A curvy woman can emphasize her shape, or she can follow the new trend. Both are possible. A beautiful skin-tight sheath dress with the plus size winter jacket over it is a real eye-catcher.
The plus size winter jacket can be worn many ways:
- over a tight dress
- thrown over the shoulders with a pantsuit
- over an oversized sweater and with flat over-the-knee boots
- and many other variations
What to look out for with a plus size winter jacket?
Neon colors or other flashy colors should be avoided. A pink plus size winter jacket can hardly be flattering, unless you're heading to a fashion show in New York for the new avant-garde designer. Avoid patterns too and wear muted colors where possible; that way the plus size winter jacket shows off best.
Exceptions always prove the rule! There's surely the odd woman who really comes into her own in the right colors! With a plus size winter jacket, pay attention to quality. A jacket should be high quality. A few extra dollars is simply the right investment in an it-piece like this.
Spoiled for choice!
It shouldn't be a rushed purchase. A jacket should be chosen with care. Go through the closet at home and think carefully about how the piece can be combined. If you're unsure, take a photo in the store and think it over carefully at home about what works and what doesn't. Some stores are even willing to put a garment on hold overnight.
Asking your girlfriends for advice isn't always the best way. In our experience it often leads to bad buys, because every woman is individual and has her own taste.
Today's sales associates have learned and don't necessarily push every item on the customer. They help look for alternative solutions. That's how you recognize the sales associate who wants to keep advising her customer in the future. If you're completely undecided and want to bring someone along, choose wisely. Is it your mother, who always advises honestly, or your partner?
Is there a friend who has exactly your taste and the two of you complement each other like Siamese twins? Then take her along; but still make your very own decision.
You should feel comfortable, and your jacket should become your favorite piece, not the favorite of the other people around you. If all else fails, this always helps: "Sleep on it!" Go back and take another look the next day, or if you've chosen online, take another look there.
