I can't think of anything worse to do than spending an entire Saturday driving from store to store trying on swimsuits that don't fit. Most stores carry a variety of one-piece and bikini options for the average-sized woman, but it is extremely difficult for me walk into a store and find a long torso tankini.The Two-piece
Girls all across the world are trying to tip the scale and go for an edgier look every prom season. In doing this they intend to have a dress that dominates the catwalk and red carpet. This season the two piece prom dress is resting gracefully at the top of that scale. The great aspect to wearing a two-piece dress is the fact that you can personalize it to your liking. Although you're able to customize many different types of dresses, the two-piece dress can be mismatched and worn with different things. Most two-piece dresses come with a corset, so let's just say you're going out for a night on the town; well, you can wear that same corset with a pair of jeans or another trendy skirt. Convertible dresses, or dresses that have detachable skirts, are basically the same as a two-piece dress. Two-piece and convertible dresses provide the wearer with more for their money because they are able to wear parts of their dress on several different occasions. Also, it is better to buy an actual two-piece dress, as opposed to trying to make one from scratch, because it will flow better together. The two-piece dress has come to prominence thanks to performers like Janet Jackson, Britney Spears and Shakira who constantly rock the bare-midriff style. Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus can often be seen on the red carpet wearing two-piece dresses. This fun and youthful trend borrows from the style of the mid 80's when celebrities were seen rocking this style using cut-off sweatshirts. Eventually, pants began to get lower and lower and shirts began to get higher. Pants and shirts were slowly but surely running away from each other, so to speak. When you begin your search for your two-piece dress, consider how your midsection looks. You don't want to be dancing while your belly button is hanging over your skirt. If your stomach is not as tight as you'd like, then consider choosing a corset top because they will hold you in better. Parents tend to be hesitant when it comes to the two piece dress because of the amount of skin being exposed but the newer two-piece dress styles tend to show less skin. They usually consist of a fitted top and long, flowy skirts. Prom goers are no longer only wearing long, ball gowns to proms; they are opting for a more glamorous and clubby feel. These kinds of dresses are easier to dance in and provide the wearer with a freer feeling. Ultimately, it's your prom night so you decide what type of footprint you want your presentation to leave.
When Ralph Lauren named Robyn Lawley as its first plus-size wedding dresses model, everyone was up in arms. To many she wasn��t ��plus-size enough�� �� being that Lawley stands at an Amazonian 6��2�� and wears a size 12 �� while others were excited to see a model above a size 0 or 2 featured in a Ralph Lauren advert at all. Regardless of the plus-size debate, we were thrilled to see another beautiful, curvier woman added to an otherwise thin lineup of fashion models. So, when Lawley announced she had designed a swim line specifically for the curvier body, we knew it would be a hit. While the line is initially launching in only sizes eight through 18, Lawley plans to extend the range both above and below those sizes, providing the collection is a success. With luxe, high-end fabric and gorgeous prints and colors, Lawley��s collection is sure to make a splash.

Need to update your look for the holidays? Here are some easy ways to rock the latest trends in plus size clothing. Disguise bumps with prints. Prints seem scary but they��re actually a plus size clothing shopper��s best friend. Why? They visually disguise any unwanted bumps or problem areas and make the maximum visual impact without a lot of effort. Look for a bright abstract floral to keep the eye moving, or go for on-trend baroque if you��re feeling daring. Skater dresses. The hemline, which is a slight A line flare with a swingy cut, is great for disguising hips but shows off your legs. If you��re feeling a bit too chilly to show that much leg, add tights. Whether shopping for regular or plus size clothing, you��re bound to see colored tights everywhere this season; they add a fun pop of color at low cost! Studs. Want something a little edgy, but don��t want to go full biker? Studs on the collar of a blouse, on a handbag, or edging the pockets on a pair of jeans add a little bit of rebel to your plus size clothing wardrobe without too much commitment. Chunky knits. Another scary pick for plus size clothing, chunky knits are very wearable provided you do them correctly. Look for body skimming, not boxy cuts that fall at the hip for the most flattering fit. And make sure the knit is soft, not stiff. Pair with skinny pants or leggings to balance the volume up top. Ankle booties. They��re all the rage with skirts and dresses this season, but some plus size clothing shoppers avoid them for fear of looking stumpy. Here��s the key: pair a shorter boot with a higher hemline so your legs aren��t chopped short at the ankles. So trendy!

Though the brand �� Juicy Couture �� has made big leaps and bounds since its bedazzled bum days, it lacks the buzz that the original JC had back when it launched in 1997. Modernly louche, laid-back, yet wittily ostentatious, Juicy Couture was every PYT's obsession back in the early 2000s, under the guidance of founders Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor. However, the founders sold the brand to Fifth & Pacific (then known as Liz Claiborne Inc.) in 2003 to help manage their debts and earn-out payments, and with the sale, the founders lost control over the business. Fifth & Pacific has been shopping around Juicy Couture in the last few months in order to help funnel money into expanding its Kate Spade endeavors, and Skaist-Levy and Nash-Taylor are reportedly bidding to buy back their company. With the aid of private equity firms, the duo are seeking to regain control of the shoes brand, which reported sales of an outstanding $498.6 million last year. In velour tracksuit terms, that's 2,543,877 pairs.
