Home >> Perfect Plus Size Skirts
With so many different kinds of cuts and hemlines available, finding full size skirts that accentuate all your positives is no sweat.
The A line Skirt
This is the universal "go to" skirt for any plus size figure. With it's narrowest point being the waistband, an A line skirt widens through the hips down to the hem, the way the letter A does from top to bottom.
Plus size skirts that are A line will fall smoothly from the waist over the hips on a Pear shaped body type, minimizing the hips and thighs.
The top heavy Apple body type will find an A line skirt will add balance by giving the illusion of proportion through the hips and thighs.
The same skirt will make the Rectangular body type appear to have more of a cinched waist, while helping Hourglass ladies will bring attention their smaller waist.

Another popular choice for women of most every body type. Like the name suggests, this skirt has straight side seams with no flare.
Beware if you're a top heavy Apple body type this skirt will slenderize your already narrow hips. So it will make you look even broader through the shoulders and bust.
But if you're lovin' the look of that hip hugging pencil skirt try going with a lighter colored skirt and darker top to give the illusion of shrinking the top and widening the bottom for balance.
Flared SkirtsAnother favorite of mine, flared skirts fit snugly through the hip then start to flare out around your knee and can hit mid-calf or lower. - I always want to call these mermaid skirts.
Flare skirts are great in Fall and Winter because they tend to be longer and look great with boots. Plus size leather skirts also look great with books in Fall and Winter. If you make this investment make sure you learn how to clean your leather clothing.
These plus size skirts also compliment just about any figure. Petite plus size ladies can pull these off with a nice heel to make the legs seem longer and not get overwhelmed by the length of the skirt.
Plus Size Long SkirtsLong skirts that come to your ankle are certainly back in style and can be carried by most any plus size woman. The important thing to remember with any long skirt is to get one that fits your curves well.
