Plus Size Picks That Deserve a Spot in Your Wardrobe This Season

Mar 26, 2025 | Rita

Plus Size Picks That Deserve a Spot in Your Wardrobe This Season

The seasons may change, but one fact remains constant—you deserve to feel amazing in what you wear. Plus size fashion has come a long way, and now it’s all about clothing that celebrates your shape, showcases your style, and supports your day-to-day life with ease.

If your wardrobe needs a refresh or you’re just craving pieces that bring back that spark, here’s your ultimate guide to plus size picks worth making space for right now.

  1. The Easy-Wear Shirt Dress

This staple is a hero piece for a reason. Shirt dresses offer structure with comfort and give you that polished-yet-effortless look we all love. Look for adjustable waist ties, buttons down the front for added styling options, and breathable fabrics like cotton or linen blends.

Style tip: Throw on a belt and ankle boots for a lunch date, or wear open over leggings and a vest for a laid-back layered look. Add a scarf, and you’re suddenly très chic.

  1. Bold Knitwear with Personality

Wave goodbye to boring beige jumpers and embrace colorful, joyful knits. This season, it’s all about vibrant shades, oversized fits, and textured designs. Think of bubble sleeves, color blocking, and patterns that express your energy.

Whether you pair it with jeans or a midi skirt, a bold knit becomes the conversation piece of your outfit—and yes, even the school run can be a runway moment.

  1. Tailored Trousers with a Twist

Gone are the days of trousers that feel like a compromise. Modern tailoring meets comfort with flattering fits, stretchy waistbands, and cropped or wide-leg options that allow you to move freely.

Paper-bag styles are a top trend this season—they cinch your waist and create a lovely silhouette when paired with a tucked-in blouse. Pair with flats or statement trainers for a smart casual vibe that works for day or night.

  1. The Statement Coat

If your outerwear doesn’t make you smile, it’s time for an upgrade. A statement coat is more than just warmth—it’s your first impression, your mood booster, and your excuse to turn heads without even trying.

Faux fur trims, oversized collars, jewel tones, or classic plaid are all on-trend. A longline coat with clean lines instantly elevates even the most basic jeans-and-tee look.

To find pieces that combine comfort, quality, and style all in one place, browse trusted plus size clothing stores UK. From standout staples to everyday favorites, they make finding the right fit feel right too.

  1. Floaty Midi Dresses for Everyday Glam

The floaty midi dress is the ultimate feel-good option. With its swishy silhouette and flattering length, it gives you room to move and breathe—ideal for running errands, grabbing a coffee, or hosting friends at home.

Choose dresses with elasticated waists or adjustable ties, and look for sleeve lengths that suit your comfort level. Florals, abstract prints, and animal patterns are all perfect for making a subtle but stylish statement.

Layer with tights and boots on chillier days or wear solo with trainers for casual cool.

  1. Co-Ords That Actually Work

Matchy-matchy just got a makeover. Co-ords (co-ordinated sets) are a dream for plus size fashion—they do the styling for you while offering max versatility. Wear them together for a bold head-to-toe look, or break them apart and mix with your wardrobe staples.

Whether it’s a soft knit lounge set, a printed skirt and top combo, or tailored separates, co-ords are the secret weapon to easy fashion that looks intentional and on-trend.

  1. Layer-Ready Basics

Don’t underestimate the power of great layering pieces. Longline vests, fine knit roll-necks, neutral cardigans, and stretchy camis are perfect for building stylish looks without sacrificing comfort. These items give you the ability to adapt your outfit throughout the day—and we know how unpredictable the weather (or a baby’s nap schedule) can be!

Having a strong base makes styling fun again—no more morning stress.

  1. Confidence, Always in Style

The best part of your wardrobe? You. It’s not about trends, size, or budget—it’s about how you feel. Style is a tool to express your identity, and you deserve pieces that fit, flatter, and make you feel amazing.

So this season, treat yourself to picks that serve your joy, not just your calendar. You don’t have to change your body to fit fashion—just find fashion that fits you.
