Whether you're ready or not Fall is officially here. As the leaves turn and the air gets crispier, wardrobe needs inevitably shift. As a fashion editor who happens to be plus-sized, I'm always on the lookout for trend-forward ways to update my closet that cater to curvier style enthusiasts. I've noticed a few popular trends seriously taking off amongst the fashion set, so I'm here to fill you in.
Ahead read about four emerging trends (pleats, layers, flat shoes, and pops of red) and exactly where to shop these styles as a plus-size. person. There are surprisingly more plus-size friendly retail options for tackling these looks including Nordstrom, Anthropologie, H&M, and so much more. Keep scrolling to unlock your new favorite plus-size fall fashion finds.
Pleats are everywhere this fall. My favorite way to wear this trend has been in the form of pleated skirts. Particularly those with a little bit more length to them. However, we don't discriminate here. All pleats are good pleats.
Shop Pleats:
In case you haven't heard, it's a flat shoe fall. Calling all ballet flats, Mary Jane, and loafers lovers. It's your time to shine. Fashion people are spicing up their flats with fun socks, but that's not mandatory.
Shop Flat Shoes:
Layers are essential to take on the transitional weather we're all experiencing now. I recommend light layers like the open-stitch one pictured here. When you're layers are light you can add or take away as much as you need with ease. Think light basic tops, cardigans, leather jackets, bombers, and more.
Shop Buildable Layers:
Red is having a serious moment as of late, and it will continue to do so. Try the bold color on in whatever way speaks to you. Whether that's as a top, bottom, outerwear, accessory, or even with your socks, try playing around with this vibrant hue this fall.
