Do plus size women look slimmer in straight leg or flared leg pants?

The best way for plus size women to determine what style pants make them look slimmer is to try some different styles on and check the mirror. What is most slimming depends on your body shape and height. In general, straight leg pants are most flattering if you have a narrow body frame. If you are wide in the hip area a slight flare bottom pant would look good. Most plus size women can wear bootcut pants, flared pants, straight leg pants and harem pants. Avoid stretch fabrics, extreme flare bottoms, baggy and tapered style pants.  Dark color and longer is better when it comes to choosing flattering pants. Your pants should touch your shoes and cover your heels. Pants in lighter fabrics or a blend of lighter fabrics are more flattering than stiff fabrics. Most important is fit. Flattering pants should fit perfectly. If necessary visit your favorite tailor.
