Plus Size Beauties –show your sexy side on Valentine’s Day

The sexy, LOVE holiday is just around the corner.  Date or no date; husband or no husband; significant other or not…Plus Size women everywhere need to take this time to indulge in the flirtier side of their personalities and express some romance.  It doesn’t matter if you have no plans or BIG plans for Valentines Day, lingerie designers and plus size fashion vendors have realized that there is a population of fuller-sized women who want to flaunt what they’ve got or coyly display the sexier side of themselves.

AND, it’s about time.  For too long now, the larger goddesses of the world either would forgo the idea of wearing lingerie or put on something that was ridiculous or uncomfortable.  Many fuller-figured femme fatales still tend to shy away from the standard “sex kitten” or “vampy” outfits.  Most of these outfits leave much to be desired.  It’s hard to demonstrate sexiness when squashing extra curves into torturous leather garments, cutting off circulation so there’s absolutely no morsel of feeling sexy or worse - having parts hanging out where they shouldn’t.  Now that does NOT summon a “come and get me” statement, does it?

So what’s a big beautiful woman to do when she wants to spice things up in the bedroom without having to crowd all that voluptuousness in a garment of torment?  Baby Dolls, Baby! The baby doll lingerie is as timeless and classic as a must have blazer is.  For those who feel their waistlines might be better hidden under something flirty or satiny, the baby doll PJ is very sexy.  Don’t be afraid to go up a size if you are a little bustier than most.  Try one in a bubble gum color or go exotic in a deep, rich jewel tone.  Put a pair of sexy undies with it and maybe even a pair of matching sexy, bedroom slippers with the fuzzy embellishments.  Even satin or lace trimmed slips or halter slips give off a sultry, confidant look for any plus size gal.

For the “vampy-er”, braver sisters out there, who swear by corsets and bustiers, there are plenty of vendors who cater to the very essence of PLUS size in these garments.  Basically a corset or bustier is much like a bra, both will give you support because of the panels of material that extends from the bottom of the bra to the waist or hips. Plus Size bustiers can increase cleavage as well.  The corset is more tight-fitting and/or form-fitting.  If you search the web you’ll find many sites and vendors that cater to the plus size woman.  Even at Fredrick’s of Hollywood, located in Town East Mall there are available lingerie in a range of plus sizes:

Small to XL in lingerie

32A to 46F in bras 

XS to 2X in panties

32 to 44 in corsets

Small to 2X in hosiery

According to Christine, the general manager at Frederick’s, she sees “a lot of plus size gals come in and go for the pretty full-figure bras and boy-cut panties with some hosiery.  Or they choose a baby doll if they feel that the bra and panty look isn’t right.”   

The store is marking many of these items 50% off if you want to benefit from being both SMART and SEXY.  Even if you don’t have a date to glam up for, get yourself a sexy, matching bra and panties just for YOU to wear under your favorite sweater and jeans.  There’s something about wearing pretty coordinated underwear that makes a goddess feel great!

Baby Dolls and more - Lane Bryant.  As always, Lane Bryant’s mini-catalog features both the corset and baby doll marked down just in time for the LOVE holiday.  Plus size goddesses can rely on getting beautiful lingerie that fits right and reflects confidence in your curves if good measurements are taken or you receive sincere feedback on how you look from LB sales associates or when ordering out of the catalog.

Fun Pajama or Lounge sets - comfy and cute.  If your Valentines evening plans tend to be a little more laid back, don’t forget that fun pajama and lounge sets can be both comfy and adorable too.  For instance, Pajamagrams have made many a gal happy.  They make the perfect gift because they are delivered wrapped in a special Keepsake Fabric Hatbox that includes:

  • Do Not Disturb Sign
  • Personalized Gift Card
  • Lavender Sachet

Finally, perhaps you decide that all these bedroom innuendos are not for you.  You can still doll up for the evening, in a stunning dress that complements your natural beauty.  One of the foremost designers in Plus Size fashions is Yuliya Raquel and her line called Igigi (pronounced ee-zhee-zhee).  Her philosophy on clothing the full figured woman is refreshing and validating to say the least.  If you truly want to look breathtaking, AND wear something that feels like it was designed for your exact body type, take a moment to be inspired with these Amazing dresses from Igigi.

    It took my ex-husband 12 years into our 17 years together before he finally bought me lingerie that actually fit my body and made me feel sexy INSTEAD of what he determined was suppose to be sexy. Comments?
