Women come in all shapes and sizes, and every woman is beautiful, no matter what their size. Many plus size women are happy to embrace their fuller figure, but struggle to dress it with style.
Plus size dressing isn’t always easy, but if you work with your body rather than against it, you’ll soon find yourself looking as great as you feel. If you want to up your style game then here are just some of the reasons why plus size kaftans could be the answer to plus size dressing:
Do you want to hide your curves or show them off? No matter how you feel about your figure, a plus size kaftan could be the perfect solution. Sheer, oversized and free-flowing, our plus size kaftans are designed to skim curves, hinting at the shape underneath without clinging to your body. Add a fitted belt, however, and your plus size dress will quickly create Jessica Rabbit-style curves. Wearing a belt over a plus size kaftan will help you to highlight your shape whilst still looking flattering and appropriate for a myriad of occasions.
Do you have a colour that instantly makes you feel great? One that flatters your skin tone and takes you to your happy place? Then you should wear that colour as often as possible! If you don’t then it’s time to escape your black comfort zone and experiment. Plus size kaftans come in a wide range of colours and patterns, meaning it’s easer than you think to find one that flatters your figure and makes you feel great.
