Clothes for a fuller figure - style that brings out your personality

Beautiful, considered style does not depend on clothing size. A fuller figure can have a modern, feminine and varied wardrobe too, where clothes are both comfortable and flattering. What matters most is choosing the right cut, fabric and size for your own body proportions.

A fuller figure is not one particular body shape. Women who wear larger sizes may have a defined waist, wider hips, a striking shoulder line or a fuller midsection. That is why the best choice of clothes is different for every woman.

A stylist's advice on choosing clothes for a fuller figure

Choose the right size and fit.

Clothes should be neither skin-tight nor too big. A well-chosen size lets the fabric drape beautifully and gives you freedom to move.

Pay attention to fabric quality.

Medium-weight, stretchy or flowing fabrics often help create a neat silhouette. It matters that the fabric does not pull across the body or form unwanted creases.

Use vertical lines.

Open jackets, longer waistcoats, V-necks and single-colour outfits can help lengthen your figure.

Highlight what you love about yourself.

A beautiful neckline, a defined waist, slim ankles or your shoulder line: clothes can help accent your favourite features.

What to wear with a fuller figure?

We recommend

  • Straight or wide-leg trousers with a comfortable waistband.
  • Jackets with a well-considered shoulder line and a good fit.
  • Dresses cut to suit your individual proportions.
  • Blouses in quality, flowing fabrics.
  • High or mid-rise jeans that fit comfortably.
  • Clothes you can mix and match for different occasions in life.

What to watch for

  • Sizes that are too small, restricting movement and pulling the fabric.
  • Very thin fabrics that don't always give the fit you want.
  • Oversized clothes that can add unnecessary volume to the silhouette.
  • The wrong length of trousers, sleeves and jackets.

Worth remembering: a fuller figure does not have to wear only dark colours or loose, covering clothes. Bright colours, prints, fitted dresses and modern cuts can look wonderful if they suit your style and the look you want.

Why we recommend it

For an elegant work look, pair the trousers with a cream blouse, a structured blazer, and loafers. For everyday wear, opt for a striped sweater and white sneakers. If you want to accentuate your waist, tuck your top into the trousers so the burgundy belt becomes the accent of the look. To visually elongate your legs, choose black shoes and a slight cuff at the hem.
