There's no time like the present to treat yourself to a present! In other words, we think it's finally time you got yourself that gorgeous lingerie set you've been eyeing up online or at your favorite boutique. You might think they don't have a size that can fit your bodacious bod, but chances are you're dead wrong! Keep in mind that no lingerie set will live up to your expectations if you don't choose the sizes and styles that work best for you. Make sure you give your curves the love they deserve with these tips for choosing plus-size lingerie...and check out some of our favorite style recommendations as well.
Know Your Sizes
This is the most important part of finding the perfect set of full-figured lingerie, so whether you're buying for yourself or hoping to surprise your partner, take note! Rather than taking a guess and winding up with something that sags, constricts or doesn't support you, take the time to get your sizing info straight. You should know your:
- Bra size
- Panty size
- Pant and blouse size
- Optional: specific measurements of your waist, bust, hips, etc.
Getting into the nitty-gritty of your measurements is really only necessary if you want to find a corset or other form-fitting top style. Knowing the specifics will help you get the optimal fit for your figure, but if you only know your bra and blouse size, you can probably still find a style that works well. Having at least a few of your measurements straight is key to finding a perfect, comfortable fit — because being comfortable lets your confidence shine!
Choose Comfortable Materials
On top of finding a great fit, you should also consider the material of the plus-size lingerie set you're looking at. It can be a real turn-off to pick up or try on a piece and realize it's a major itch-fest, no matter how cute it is. But even the laciest, most embellished pieces can be light, soft and luxurious if they're made of the right materials.
The best fabrics for cute and comfortable full-figured lingerie include:
- Satin: Shimmery elegance that's also lightweight and soft.
- Silk: Lightweight, smooth and cool, with plenty of satin-y shimmer.
- Cotton: Soft and breathable, with a nice matte finish.
- Muslin: Semi-transparent, soft and so light it's barely there.
- Organza: Sheer and transparent for an ethereal aesthetic.
Don't Bend to Trends
It can be easy to follow the crowd on new plus-size lingerie trends — after all, a lot of them are super hot! However, just because brands are pushing a style's popularity doesn't mean it'll be the right fit for you, which can leave you feeling down. So forget about it! Get to know the hundreds of other great styles out there and you'll discover so many that do work for you that you'll have to devote an entire drawer to sexy lingerie. And you get the added bonus of standing out from the crowd and wowing your partner with your one-of-a-kind look. Suck it, mainstream!
