How to Make Cashmere Work for a Plus Size Frame

When deciding how to wear cashmere sweaters while having a plus size frame, you have a few problems. You don’t want your attire to look lumpy and loose, because that will make you appear bigger than you are. If you wear your cashmere too tight, then you will seem as though you are bursting through your clothes, and we don’t want that either.

These problems may make it seem as though cashmere sweaters are not an option, but fear not because you can still wear them. There are a few techniques that you can use when wearing cashmere. You will have to be more observant in regards to the colors, patterns and accessories that you use. You will need to know how to emphasize certain parts and minimize attention to others.

The first technique to use deals with how light makes you appear. If you ask a photographer or an artist, then you will see how you can use light to manipulate many things. This is why your clothes and colors help to achieve the visual effects that will make another person’s eye think that you have lost a little bit of your plus. Remember that lighter clothes make you appear heavier and darker clothes will make you appear thinner. If you wear a striped shirt, remember that horizontal stripes will make you appear wider and vertical stripes make you appear taller and slimmer. When trying out your cashmere sweater, play around with these options and see which one makes you look the best.

Another thing to consider is that single colored clothes will minimize the appearance of a plus size person. This serves especially true if the color is dark and reflective. Cashmere sweaters, when you buy them in brown or dark blue, will make you look slimmer. To make this look even better, try to coordinate your pants or skirt with the color of your shirt so that you do not break the movement of light between different clothing items.

Another thing that you want to consider is how someone looks at you. You do not want them to look at you like a book from left to right. Instead, you want them to look at you vertically from top to bottom. You want to make sure that your clothes guide them in that direction, for you will appear thinner. To do this, wear cashmere sweaters with lines and make sure that they are thin and go vertically.

The next thing that we will discuss is how tight that you should wear your clothes. As with most things, balance is the key. You do not want anything too tight or too loose, so wear something that fits you comfortably. You also want to make sure that the rest of your outfit matches this, so don’t wear really tight pants with a lose shirt. The idea is to make sure that you have one body line from your shoulders to your feet. Don’t let yourself look like a pair of parenthesis, instead make you look like parallel lines. You will look better as you get closer to achieving this look.

This one-direction principle will also apply to your accessories. If you decide to wear a scarf, wear it loosely around your neck and let it dangle down your vertical lines so that it accentuates your body. Also, since your lines will be going vertically, a belt may not go so well with this outfit. Remember, keep everything consistent and comfortable.
