One fashion tip a British fashion expert gave a larger lady is NEVER, EVER carry a small handbag: it will only accentuate your size. Instead, carry a large handbag at all times and (miraculously) your body shape/size will look in proportion. Works like magic.
That's why, when I was much larger, I used to reject dainty jewelry and accessories for bold statements.
I am so glad to see that she agrees with me 😃
@@loriloristuffyes, that’s exactly right. “Go bold or go home” as we say in the UK.
Except it won't work that well if you are short. Some of us just can't win.
Exactly no big handbag if you are short like me
I needed to see this today. Thank you for considering us plus size over 50 ladies.
You are so welcome Jackie x
Wonderful and practical tips, thank you! I fully agree about the importance of tailoring- oversized looks are not good for us, but properly tailored pieces give us a smart elevated look that is flattering. And I use accessories to personalize basic pieces and make them my own style!
😘
Thank you so much for this! ❤️❤️
Thank you Marie-Anne! ❤
These are wonderful tips if you're plus size and tall but if you're like me and 5ft 3in and 160lbs wide pants and long trench coats don't work. Please do a couple of videos for us short fat girls.
The same rules apply. Just tailor the clothes to your specific proportions. e.g. The right raincoat can be tailored to fit your body. And the black suit (shown in vid) w/ pants that are slightly wider than a straight leg. These pants are universally flattering.
You should have read the title of the video. Duh
I'm 4'10", I tried wide leg pants. They're not for me, my lower half looked like a barrel! 😅 I prefer straight leg pants, they're more flattering.
At 5'3" you should look for petites.
@@hollydewbean3248 that's all I buy and I still have to take pants, sleeves to the taylor to shorten. I was lucky to find a pair of ankle pants for petite and they fit me perfectly. I usually buy good quality foundation pieces that will last and are classic.
Thanks so much Madame ❤❤❤❤
I watched this at 9 am pacific time , noon eastern time. So well illustrated and helpful. I wish I could see your reviews of the lilysilk skirts sooner than July 13, but c’est la vie. I’m still eyeing their navy double breasted blazer.
It is gorgeous Shawn 😃
Good video - thank you!
You are very welcome Lulu x
staples! i thoroughly enjoy your channel. you are very good at setting an example for women, providing practical advice, and being encouraging to all ages and sizes, making us all feel and look beautiful
Merci for your kind comment RNK I appreciate it very much x
If it’s not a wow, it’s a non! I like that.
Just that one piece of advice can transform your wardrobe Ms A 😃
I’ll tattoo it on my arm 😂
Thank you.
I’m 73 and I’ve been fighting weight since I was 12. I figure now that I’ve lost the battle, my best summer look is a pair of dark cotton pants, a tank top, some kind of loose topper, duster, kimono, whatever you want to call it, and a pair of matching flats. No one looks at a woman my age but I don’t want to embarrass my husband.
Bonjour Nancy - please ma chère never give up. I love that you wish to look good for your husband 🙏 I am sure you never embarrass him. It is so simple to dress better - discover your true shape, learn your style objectives, find out what colours suit you, add your personality et voilà 😃
These are great tips, even for not-plus size women, so thank you very much for them.
BTW the colour of your lipstick and blazer suit you to a T and make me very jealous - I like red, but with my mud-coloured eyes and dark blonde hair there just doesn't seem to fit any shade of red...
Merci Charis - Audrey Hepburn always said that there is a shad of red for everyone 😃 I hope you find yours 💋
STAPLES pls❤
Staples!😂
Linnen creases are smile line for clothes! Yes, Ma'am❤!😂
Merci.
Staple
I so wish that designers and stylists of plus size clothing would watch your videos. It seems to me that most of them are totally clueless. Some of the things I see on instagram are ridiculous.
I am always open for consultation Suzanne 😃
More please but why not use models over 50 since that is who you. Are referring to.
Bonjour Janice, I use 50+ models as and when I can find them and would dearly like to use more. However it already takes a huge amount of time to find the royalty free images used and which fit the advice being given. It is not just a question of simply taking images off the net as very many are copyright and trying to get permission has proved impossible in the past. So, like all channels, I have to resort to finding images where and when I can. If more brands used 50+ models my job would be easier but sadly they don't 🙁
At age 40 I weighted 100 lbs....I'll never enjoy being this size. All clothes look bad on me.
Bonjour Lesta, you are not alone ma chère. This is a comment I hear all the time 🙏 establish your true bodyshape (take this free course here www.marieannelecoeur.com/shape-up-ecourse.html), learn your style objectives (follow the links in the free course), ensure you pick only colours that suit you and never, ever buy anything unless it is a Wow. The way forward is easily stated but can be hard to stick to which is why I always say I am here to help. Anyone can ask for help in comments or via email info@marieannelecoeur.com - I always respond 😘
@@MarieAnneLecoeur i looked at this but all the models were tall and thin. This does not help me. Also at 76 I always cover my legs wearing skinny jeans and only wear 3/4 or long sleeves as my arms must be covered.
That is not right Lesta all the models shown in this video are plus size models as stated on the websites
@@MarieAnneLecoeur but they are taller than 5ft3in
I have done a video to include plus size Petite ladies here Lesta ua-cam.com/video/bJRr_yT5HmE/v-deo.html
Thanks so much for this! I have gained a lot of weight due to medications and I am really having difficulty with selecting outfits. Appreciate your advice!
You are very welcome Toni 😃
Thank you for this! ❤ Now, instead of feeling rumpled when I wear linen that has wrinkled, I’ll feel like I’m wearing smiling clothing.
👍
Love this video Marie! I love love my linen slacks and blouses. I have been sewing a summer wardrobe this last week -with linen fabric - and complementary patterns selected. I donate all my unflattering crop pants and any unflattering blouses! I washed them, ironed them placed them on hangars and took them to free center called FISH. No charge for clothing for folks who need it. It felt great to step into a fashion chic and leave old styles behind. That you very much for your kindness and your videos!
Staples please. ❤
I have a sweater type blazer that is just eh. Nothing fancy, I decided to make it more upscale by adding some beautiful vintage silver buttons. Made a huge difference! Sometimes small changes to ur existing classic pieces can revitalize your wardrobe! Thank you for all you do.
Small changes can lead to big results VeeGee 😃
The best style advice for plus sized ladies, Marie-Anne! Great content and loved to see actual plus sized models featured. It's completely possible to be chic regardless bodyshape, size, age and budget. Being larger is not an excuse to look frumpy. You're looking so youthful, your skin is growing and love your red blazer. Looking forward to your next video featuring your new purchase. Merci ❤
Merci AW 🤗
The black sleeveless dress that “shows off your shoulders” does not work for many plus sized women because their upper arms are flabby. I wish there were more dresses that cover or camouflage the upper arms.
Thanks for saying this! Even just below elbow would be good.. Designers also assume all women of a certain age are a certain standard shape too.
Bonjour Suzanne thank you for your comment. Very many plus size ladies have super arms and shoulders. There is a difference I think between flabby and plus size but toned. I have seen so many lovely larger ladies rocking this sleeveless dress that it can't be a coincidence. Sadly I see so many beautiful plus size ladies being told they can't wear this and they can't wear that simply because they are plus size - the fashion industry and very many others want to relegate plus size ladies to the back of the room wearing 'cover everything' clothing and be invisible... well that is not good enough for my Lovely Larger Ladies. Pay particular attention to the first tip - find something to love about yourself and emphasise that is what I say 😃🙏
Just when I thought I couldn’t admire you any more you go and make a video for the larger lady - credit to you, Marie-Anne! These ladies are forgotten by the British fashion industry and most of the Press and two of my friends have been so upset over the years because even though they have successful careers they feel dowdy (not at all feminine) since their menopausal weight gain. So thank you for your kind heart and ‘inclusive’ nature and I’ve sent my friends the link to your video. xx
Merci Susanne, I appreciate that very much 🤗
Really good tips. I’m plus size but used to be skinny before I turned 50. So feeling good about how I look isn’t easy. I think the last tip is the most important. I see so many women who don’t fix their hair and wear it in a greasy ponytail. Not a good look!
Bonjour Shelley - I would recommend a style journal - it will help you identify why you may have difficulty feeling good about you watch here ua-cam.com/video/T-focA7cU5k/v-deo.html 😘 and let me know how you get on
I think that red blazer looks beautiful on you ♥️🙂
❤️
Well, no matter what size, if you have a waist and big boobs, you can be easily dressed.
If you are my shape: rectangle (no waist, no boobs) with a big tummy, you can spend fortunes on clothes, you'll look jus "OK"
What you need to do FrauNyulambu is take this free course www.marieannelecoeur.com/shape-up-ecourse.html establish your shape and then follow the links to discover your style objectives and never hesitate to reach out for more help🙏
Staples to live by -- no matter what size/shape you are. Be proud!
Wise words Ms B 🙏
Priceless advice in navigating through making the best choice in dressing. Thank you Matie-Anne❤
You are very welcome Lori x
Thank you, but with few exceptions. Wide leg pants for 5' 4" do not look good unless very soft jersey material is used. If i get taylored pants that fit around my waist, they would be 2 sizes too big for hips and legs, thus petite size that fits hips, elastic to get around the waist. Great recommendations on need of quality materials. Looking forward to more videos, i watch them all.😅
When you have such specific tailoring needs Dobrila I highly recommend Sumissura - the online tailoring service 😃
@@MarieAnneLecoeur
Thank you, never heard of it before. Will definitely try.
💕☺️
Trench coats are dicey for we plus-size ladies: I am both short (5'3) and busty (a DD) so the double-breasted trench is a no-no: it makes me look short and squat. I have one, but it only works with high heels.
Plus Size Petite is a different ball game - see my recent video on Plus Size Petite and my videos for my lovely Petite Ladies 😃
@@MarieAnneLecoeur Plus petite is absolutely a totally difference ball game. 😃
😃👍 This is why I emphasise knowing your shape and size above all else 😃 keep on helping people to learn from their mistakes with your podcast ma chère - our messages are very much aligned 🙏
@@MarieAnneLecoeur Will do!! And you're right, our messages are aligned!! Onward and upward.
It's all about proportions. Black all over isn't always the answer either. Fit is everything. I love tailored clothing of good quality. I have large calves, so i rarely wear tiny stilettos. I opt for block heels or wedges. I use medium or large bags, and I love an antique brooch or a long, thin silk scarf.
Proportions are vital Jeri 😃
Thanks for the great tips!
Staples please
Absolutely staples, please!

I am not a plus size lady but I enjoyed this video very much Marie-Anne! I ordered the striped skirt on your rail! I will have it delivered tomorrow. I can't wait to see how you style yours! 🤩
That is wonderful 😃 let me know how you style yours 👍
@@MarieAnneLecoeur I purchased the Amalfi striped shirt last year so I plan to wear it with the stripe skirt as they are identical in color and material. I can also wear it with a navy top or white blouse. ☺
the black long dress is very beautiful. Simple, elegant, beautiful
You look fabulous, Marie Anne♥️
🤗
👏🙏Staples
Excellent tips that I believe apply to everybody!
👍
Such practical tips that all of us can use. Love the examples you shared. Such beautiful ladies too ❤
🤗
Dear Marie-Anne, Sensible wise tips and advice! Merci bien!! Best regards and have a lovely week!😀🌺
🙏😘
I would love a video that helps define “feminine” clothing. I tend to stick with very basic colors and some days feel I’m dressing in a more masculine style than I would like to. Can you please do a video that shows how to take a basic outfit from androgynous or almost masculine to feminine? I need help with that.
Ooooo I like the sound of that Susan 😃
@@MarieAnneLecoeur I’m excited! Please do it! When I wear a white shirt and tan slacks I look like a greeter at Target. I need to learn how to feminize that combo and make it look stylish!
What if you are short and fat with a tummy that is firm and starts right under your bust? That's me. 😢
Start with Tip 1 Debbie 🙏 take this free course www.marieannelecoeur.com/shape-up-ecourse.html and get back to me if you need further help thereafter 🙏

What about skinny legs, flat butt and big belly, how to dress up and hide them? 🙈 😬 please 🙏 🤭
I have a whole raft of videos that could help you 😃
@@MarieAnneLecoeur Thank you 😘
Staples please
There's a brand I hate, where I live, because they get the cuts sized up by computer and the V necks are too deep for my short waist/body and my comfort.
I love it!!!
Thanks for this. While I’m familiar with most of these tips, I did learn some new things as well as a refresher on those I already know. I’d love to see a follow up on staples for plus size women.
😘
How lovely you look in this shade of red
❤️
Miss Marie-Anne totally tips darling and your so gorgeous too l love you Teacher 😘❤️
Merci Hector
You're welcome my sweet queen
How lovely you look in this shade of red

Staples si'l vous plait. Merci!

Simplicity brought back their original DVF wrap dress pattern and it goes up to a size 24! That said, it's a reproduction of the 70s pattern so the 24 is probably a 20 or 22. But it shouldn't be hard to make it a couple of sizes larger.
Merci for the recommendation Liz x
Staples
Thank you!

I love your red blazer!

So very helpful.

Great video, Marie-Anne! I have to share that I went to the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in Ft. Worth, TX. In the stairwell to the upper level was a framed collection of Hermès scarves with ... horses! I thought of you and snapped some photos! 🐎🐎🐎
😃👍
I really enjoyed your video for plus size ladies. I love nice clothes, bags and accessories. Unfortunately, my feet are a problem and I struggle to get nice shoes. I find that many shops including those on line, that "cater" for plus size, sell clothing that look like tents. It can be very difficult to get nice tailored clothing. I'm also over 60 and I really enjoy all your videos. They help to stop me "letting myself go".
Bonjour Maria finding good shoes is difficult - I will see what I can do 😘
As a petite, I am supposed to wear smaller, proportional accessories and prints. But I am not tiny anymore. So, I guess I should go medium on those things.
Watch my video for Petite ladies they will give you a good place to start 😃
Thank you for the great advice.
😘
😍🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
