The way that shirring molds to perfectly fit your body is my favorite feature. Since our bodies will constantly change, having shirring in our clothes allows us to keep dressing in our favorite tops and dresses as our bodies alter. Corsets have been a fashion staple for a reason throughout history. One reason they have been a mainstay of fashion for so long, in my opinion, is the lacing-up feature. I love that lace-up closures are becoming more and more popular. It’s really enticing to be able to alter garments to fit your body type. For me, it’s hard to locate clothes that fit my waist and hips. I realize that I frequently mock wrap dresses, particularly those with flowers on them, but there’s a good reason why they’ve been a mainstay in plus-size wardrobes for so long. The draping forms a lovely contour across your frame, and the waist tie lets you customize it to fit your body. Wrap dresses are easy to put together and may easily transition from casual to dressy. The other advantage is that because fashion designers tend to believe that wrap dresses are the only thing plus-size people desire to wear, they are usually easier to find for those moments when you’re stuck.
