A Curvy Girls Style Guide

The Wardrobe Stylist:Β Based on this season’s trends (kimono, black & white, nautical inspiration, khaki, mesh, all-over denim), how does it translate into full figure fashion? What should compose a curvy girls style guide?

Sherry Lee: Fashion first I always say. Find a trend that works for you and mix it with some of your favourite pieces already in your closet. I am all over the new khaki trend. I have a khaki maxi skirtΒ and aΒ khakiΒ jacket that I wear over my favourite pair of jeans.

It is all about feeling confident in what you are wearing! Mix it up and try it out!Β

The Wardrobe Stylist: What are the styles you recommend most to your clients for a night out?Β Β 

Sherry Lee: You can never go wrong with a little black dress. This season why not try a little white dress? Team it up with aΒ fabulousΒ pair of heels and a great bag.

The Wardrobe Stylist: Is there anything you advise they stay away from?

Sherry Lee: Less is more. Keep it simple. BeΒ cautiousΒ about overΒ accessorizing. I like to pick 3. For me it is usuallyΒ earnings, heels and a great bag!

The Wardrobe Stylist: What is a classic piece that can be worn with almost everything you recommend to full figure women?

Sherry Lee: I live by thisΒ phrase: “confidenceΒ is the sexiest thing a woman can wear.” Β I put that above everything else. But my personal go to piece, and something I take with me everywhere, is a black blazer. Put it on with your jeans or over your favourite dress. Classy and stylish.Β

    Classic pieces always work no matter what your size or shape, I think. Great point about confidence too, you can’t pull anything off without it!
