The fashion industry does not have a good track record of being inclusive of all sizes, but recently the tides have started to turn. More and more, fashion brands are paying attention to women of all sizes. This includes recognizing their buying power, and creating looks that work for curvy bodies.
As part of this shift, there is an increased focus on fashion items that flaunt and flatter a woman’s curves, rather than trying to hide them.
Trendy accessories are a great way for any woman to complete her look, and accessories can be used to draw attention to favorite body parts.
Below, we’re sharing a guide of five fashionable accessories that every curvy woman should have in her closet. Read on to learn more!
1. Oversized Watches
This year, fashion brands are taking hand jewelry beyond rings and bracelets. One of the best trendy accessories to look for is an oversized watch — or boyfriend watch.
These watches stand out for their larger faces and wider bands. They are also meant to fit loosely around your wrist, which makes them especially suited to curvy women. Because they are oversized, they make your wrist look slimmer and won’t be uncomfortable like some tight-fitting watches.
2. Heeled Booties
Women tend to have a love-hate relationship with high heels. While they tend to flatter women by making them look taller and leaner, they are also known for being uncomfortable.
Heeled booties are a good balance. They still flatter like traditional stilettos, but they aren’t as narrow in the toe and so can provide more comfort to the wearer. They also look great with wrap dresses, a style can is flattering to curvy women.
3. Simple Stud Earrings
A simple, chic stud earring is a classic accessory for any woman, but it is particularly flattering for women with curves.
Bulky earrings or big drop earrings can weigh you down, and they can make your outfit feel too cluttered. A stud does the opposite–it makes everything feel pulled together and sleek.
And simple doesn’t have to mean boring. Look for small studs in unexpected shapes and materials to keep things interesting.
4. Lingerie
Lingerie might not be a traditional accessory — in the sense that it’s not something everyone sees — but it is an essential element of a curvy woman’s wardrobe.
Having the right lingerie on underneath your clothes can actually change the fit of certain items, and make you feel more confident.
And, for your lucky significant other, you can put your lingerie on display, get out the adult toys, and share a romantic evening.
5. A Long Trench Coat
One of the best things about a classic, khaki trench coat is that it can be worn with any outfit. No matter what you’re wearing underneath, topping your look with a trench makes it stylish.
Because a trench coat is such a style staple on its own, it’s also great for those days when you don’t feel confident in what you have on. A trench is stylish enough that you can leave it on, cinched at the waist, and have that be your outfit for the day.
