Oh Dear God…
It’s going to take a miracle for your editor to salvage this train wreck.
First, there’s thing called a “broom”…and a waste bucket. Know about them.
Secondly denim shorts, especially with your legs, are a no-no. What you need is a floor-length.
These are a safe option for any self-conscious plus size ladies. Not only do they take focus away from your legs, but they will encourage wanted attention on your waist, collar bones and facial features. Plain colored skirts in pale tones such as lilac, pink, cream and blue will add a gentle look whereas darker colors such as black, navy, grey and brown can provide a more bulky image. Patterns and flares look absolutely amazing on larger ladies and, as mentioned in a previous post, patterns will diminish your need for extra bling as well as add focus and feature. For the shy ladies out there, choose a flared and full style of skirt that is fitted at the waist. For the more adventurous women out there why not choose a fitted fishtail skirt and add that boom to your outfit.
Lose the tank top.
Peplum shapes make the best tops for plus-size women. It will enhance your bust and emphasize the proportion between your waist and hips without going overboard on either.
If your chest measurement is wider than your hips and waist, try V-neck tops. Depending on the depth of the cut, these shirts can enhance your bust or elongate your neck, making your upper half look slimmer.
That said, a tunic top is always a great choice for women of any shape! This flowing shirt is always comfortable and won’t squeeze your body in annoying ways.
And then there’s this other thing you need to look into, like quick, because…damn.
No It’s Not
I honestly don’t know what it is you’re trying to say with this.
My chief complaint with transwomen is the porn-soaked parody of what a woman should be. Come on, lady, you simply must ditch the porn and start dressing like you mean it.
That you are a plus-size means you can’t just pull off any old thing, no. You’re going to have to dress in a manner that is complimentary rather than confrontational.
While talking about plus size fashion you have to think about clothing and accessories as well. Some well chosen outfits and accessories can distract the eye from the problematic parts and highlight the most beautiful parts of your body.
Every woman can look amazing and chic regardless of the size she is wearing. The key is to find the right dressing style and learn a few tricks about how to take advantage of your feminine curves to have a beautiful, attractive look.
To wit:
Vertical lines. Wearing outfits with vertical stripes will make you look taller and slimmer. It is a small but very wise trick for creating the illusion of a thinner body.
Avoid large, tent-like clothes. Many curvy women tend to wear dresses and blouses that are too large for them. These shirts and clothes make nothing else but make you look bigger than you really are and also attract the attention to the areas you would rather hide. Avoid these types of outfits that add more volume to your body. Instead, opt for clothes that fit you well and have a great design for your womanly lines.
V-neck blouses and jackets. The V-neck designed blouses or sweaters create the illusion of a longer neck and work really well with your body type. Feel free to keep your neckline open with these types of clothes so that they can highlight your beautiful face. Jackets are also great pieces of garment that can give a good shape to your curvy silhouette. These fashion jackets look better if they are open, this way they won’t make you look bigger than you really are.
Straight cut jeans or pants are designed for you. Straight leg pants give your body a continuous line, making you appear longer and slimmer. If you feel like your hips are too wide, these straight cut jeans are a great option. They fall down from your waist straight to the ankle. Choose a denim with a bit of stretch, this is very comfortable and will fit your body type really well. Try to wear basic or neutral colors like black, brown, gray, dark green or dark blue. It is better to avoid odd colors and striking patterns. Follow the fashion trends and buy block colored items that can be easily matched with each other for every occasion.
And when you put it all together you get this:
You’re welcome.
Third Miracle
And with this third miracle I am now beatified even though I’m not dead yet.
You really need to stay away from vinyl and that you are a ginger you have to dress more like a ginger and that means green, especially a bottle green, is definitely your color.
A bold bottle green is a perfect choice, and a misty sage green is equally complementary. When choosing any shade of green, go for the purest saturated colors for your best look.
Another good look is neutrals. Wardrobes require basic building blocks of neutral colors to mix and match; for the red-haired woman, the best of these are black, navy, tan and brown. Black works fabulously for redheads, and a variety of browns are appropriate, too. Look for chocolates, cinnamon browns and rich tans. Navy blue should be in the closet of every red-tressed (wo)man.
Pro tip: neutrals look good on gingers. Trust me on this one.

Honestly William, you're really good at this! Really well written and makes a lot of fashion sense. I find I'm carefully reading and agreeing with your advice, rather than so much laughing at these ridiculous and grotesque fetishists.
