One of the most exciting things about the festive period is all of the fab parties & there is no better excuse to spruce up your wardrobe with a new dress.

Here are a few of my favourites in plus sizes this season…

Icon Lace Dress

Ladylike 3/4 length sleeves & a flattering wrap silhouette encapsulate effortless retro elan while black lace and a warm brandy hued satin give a contemporary spin. Pair with red lips, vampy heels & big hair to make the perfect impact at your Christmas party.

Ferrera Gown

Sensuous, glamorous & very seductive, perfect for your black tie event. Simple yet dramatic floor length gown which exposes a leg and features a back tail for added va va voom.

Quinn Jewel Dress

An elegant cowl neck cocktail dress is given a show stopping makeover with a jewelled belt and slit sleeves. The deep purple hue is a season must have and makes a nice change from the staple little black dress.

Bella Gown

Amazing off the shouler evening gown trimmed with cascading hand made flowers which ooze femininity & true sophistication. 3/4 length sleeves ensure the right amount of cover while the full length skirt is perfect for more formal events.

Enjoy your little Christmas treat to yourself!

As the nights draw in and the temperatures drop some retail therapy can help cheer all you curvy fashionistas out there.

The weather change is a great excuse to update your wardrobe and where better to start than with some of this seasons best coats & jackets.

Rienna Coat

A firm favourite with the curvety team, this longer length coat has an unfussy A line shape which accentuates curves without adding bulk. The mis-matched buttons and other details ensure this is not just another coat, but will ensure you stand out from the crowd this winter.

Lara Jacket
Available in deep charcoal or black the lara jacket is a must have essential jacket that will not only keep you warm but give you fashion brownie points too. Featuring the little details which make for the perfect jacket to see you through cold seasons for years to come. Peeping out of the hem and sleeves is a jersey layer which doesnt add bulk but keeps out any chills.

That time of year is here again, time to dress up in our spookiest attire, bob for apples, watch scary movies and eat too many sweets (or is that just me!!)

Imagine the scene -

A trendy photographers studio in the heart of Surrey, A new face with hot potential on the plus size modelling scene and a pile of the best plus size clothes from Curvety.com – what a day!

Yes, it was Curvety’s first ever photo shoot. Our model competition was a huge success with many applicants from across the Country, but the winner stood out from the crowd with her amazing curvy figure & stunningly memorable looks -welcome Olivia Campbell.

The day started with a rummage through the looks to find the key pieces to picture, while the make up artist transformed our new model into a sultry sex goddess.

Photographer, Chantal Storrs Barbor of Cherry red studios, was responsible for shortlisting the applicants and on the day helped to put Olivia at ease while clicking away. Within minutes you could see that she is a true natural with striking presence.

You can see some of the new shots at Curvety.com and i’m sure it isnt the last you will see of Olivia, who now has a brand new portfolio to launch herself as a plus size model courtesy of Cherry red studios. We will definitely be inviting Olivia back to Curvety in the near future.

As the evenings draw in and the temperature starts to drop there is always one thing that cheers me up – shopping!

It’s that time of year when the fab new Autmn/ Winter styles are hitting the shops and a bit of retail therapy is sure to brighten the most gloomy of days.

As always, Curvety have some luscious examples of this seasons hottest styles, all in plus sizes to ensure curvy women everywhere stay one step ahead of the game on the fashion front.

Basic season essentials -

Jeggings

The jean style legging is a wardrobe essential this A/W. Designed to replicate skinny jeans without the bulk, jeggings were definitely designed with the curvier lady in mind. Perfect for dressing up or down with this seasons hot layered look, this is one piece you can’t be without.

 

Teal & Purple

The two hot colours to inject into your winter wardrobe will be sure to add a bit of glamour to your day. The penny purple knit dress is the perfect example of how to find wearable style which will make you look like you have just stepped off the catwalk.

 

Chunky knits

As the UK is not famed for its winter weather it’s fortunate that one of the key looks this season is knitwear, however 09/10 style sees the look taken to the next level. perfect for layering (and keeping warm!!), we love the pippy jade knit cardi.

 

More styles not to be missed this season….

 

Animal print – Back with avengance and more imagiation than ever. Check out the vray animal print top.

 

Houndstooth - Inject some glamour into your winter wardrobe. We love this houndstooth jacket.

 

Checks - For casual chic, check print is an essential look this season. Check out the caley check top.

A few flexible key pieces will ensure an Autumn/ Winter wardrobe to be proud of without spending a fortune so pick wisely and you will look fab all season.
