The plus size skirt is a stylish and versatile piece that can complement any wardrobe in style.

So, from time to time, we avoid pants, jeans and dresses, and we dare to wear a skirt!

In this article, I will try to give you good reasons to wear a plus size skirt. How to wear it with confidence and what pieces to mix it with to create stunning outfits.

Why dare to wear a plus size skirt?

Style and self-confidence:

The plus size skirt can be a major asset for your self-confidence. By choosing the right cut and length, you can highlight your curves while feeling comfortable, elegant and feminine.

Versatility and adaptability:

Whatever the occasion, the skirt can be tailored to your style. From office to casual weekends, from telecommuting to chic evening, it offers a variety of options to create different looks throughout the moods and moments of your life.

How to wear your skirt?

Choosing the right length:

It is often considered that long or midi skirts are flattering on plus size figures. It is true that they lengthen the silhouette and add a touch of elegance. However, the length mostly depends on your personal preference. AtLes Militantes , we will always encourage you to choose models in which you feel good, even if it goes against fashion dictates.

Find the right fit:

It is said that flared or A-line skirts can be more flattering on the hips and thighs, while straighter or slit skirts emphasize curves. Try different styles and decide what suits you best.
And don't forget to choose elasticated waists for absolute comfort. Being comfortable in your clothes, not feeling too tight or stuffy, is the ultimate secret to self-confidence.

Combine with style: 1 skirt, 3 looks

For an office outfit, pair your plus size skirt with a blazer and heels. A pair of tights in winter and presto, a simple and effective look for a working girl ready to face a day of work with confidence.

For a more casual look, opt for a t-shirt or sweatshirt and a denim jacket. A pair of sneakers, and off you go for a cool weekend.

And for a slightly rock look, boots, a belt with a big buckle and a leather jacket will give the desired effect.

We recap: what to mix the plus size skirt with?
