No matter what her size, every woman wants to look fabulously sexy in her lingerie. Fortunately, clothing manufacturers and designers have discovered that larger size women will be happy to purchase beautiful, well-made plus size lingerie.
All women know that the correct foundation garments will make them feel great and look fabulous in any outfit. Now that there are more options in plus size lingerie, choosing the right undergarments can be a bit confusing at first. Here's how to make good choices in sexy lingerie for plus size women.
Start by getting your exact measurements. It's a good idea to get a friend to help you take your measurements, because some of them, such as a proper bra size, can be difficult to determine on your own. For instance, did you know that some 80 percent of American women wear the wrong size bra? That's because they haven't had a good fitting. You can even go to a specialty shop that carries plus size lingerie and ask a saleswoman to take a fitting for you.
Next, don't be fixated on size. Sizing differs among manufacturers and designers. What you want is something that fits well. That's why it's essential to know your measurements and keep them with you. We plus-sized women tend to internalize poor fit as a critique of our bodies, but more often the problem is with a poorly made garment. The problem also could simply be that we're trying on a garment that's not the right style for our body type. Getting your exact measurements will help relieve this sense of inferiority when choosing lingerie from different manufacturers in different sizes.
Now decide on what garments you need. For instance, if you have a big holiday party coming up, get your outfit first and then buy the undergarments that will enhance your look. That way you won't be searching at the last minute for a strapless bra or other special garment.
If budget is an issue, your might want to consider an all-in-one body shaper that covers you from the bust to the knee and comes with clear straps. In fact, you might want to get a body shaper with removable, clear straps for any garment without much in the way of shoulder coverage.
Furthermore, as much as you might love color in your lingerie, choose basic undergarments in a skin-toned color (also known as nude, beige or cafe) that will blend with your skin. Only wear white under solid garments that aren't transparent. White lingerie can be seen even under white color if it's the least bit see-through. After all, you don't want to end up like one of those celebrity "fashion mistake" photos where your lingerie can be seen through your clothes.
Once you have the basics cared for and something a little special, consider a sexy outfit that's more daring. Find an ensemble that shows off your curves and makes you feel powerful and confident. Don't be shy; it's time to love the generous body you have and be proud about making it look beautiful.
Consider also whether you can use a body shaper. Body shapers aren't necessarily the all-in-one solution they're promoted to be, because they can smooth out one area but cause bulges in another. The right one can make clothes look better, however, so it's worth trying on several. A good option is a body shaper that covers you from bust to just above the knees and comes with clear straps.
And with something a little more sexy or daring, you and your partner can enjoy some romantic nights!
