Sometimes it’s that little somethin’somethin’ that makes the outfit - it’s that intersection of quality, luxury, and plus-size perfection that not only fits well but exudes confidence and boss-vibes. We’re talking about going beyond the basics with a piece that levels up your workwear routine, and helps you own the room.
The Evolution of Plus-Size Work Wear
Isn’t it ironic that 70% of women are plus-size and 47% or the workforce are women, and plus-size work wear is given such little consideration in the fashion industry? Often marked by limited options and a lack of nuanced design, we find ourselves in the same uniform not for lack of trying - but lack of options. However, a shift is underway and we are here for it. Designers are recognizing that style and professionalism are not one-size-fits-all. Every season at market we are seeing more plus-size work wear options and pieces that celebrate and enhance our curves and celebrate our styles.
We’re curating pieces that add that extra and mirror your confidence when you show up. When we look for pieces to add to our collection our priorities are craftsmanship, uniqueness, and of course styles that reflect our customer base - because we believe every piece we bring to our shop should give women the chance to love their plus-size perfection in pieces created to tie it all together.
Craftsmanship and Quality: The Hallmarks of Luxury
- Fabric and Fit:
At the heart of luxury workwear lies the quality of the fabric. High-end materials such as silk, cashmere, and fine wool not only provide comfort but also lend an air of sophistication. The fit is equally crucial; tailored cuts and thoughtful design ensure that garments enhance our curves without compromising on comfort or style.
- Attention to Detail:
Luxury is often found in the details. From expertly stitched seams to handcrafted buttons and bespoke tailoring, these elements elevate plus-size work wear from merely functional to exquisitely refined. Every detail, no matter how small, contributes to a polished and professional appearance that commands respect.
- Versatility and Functionality:
A well-crafted luxury wardrobe is versatile. Plus-size pieces should transition seamlessly from day to night, office to event. Versatile blazers, tailored trousers, and knitwear that can be dressed up or down are essential components of an Amour 781 workwear closet.
Somethin’Somethin’: Beyond the Basics
- A Pop of Color:
Introducing a burst of color can instantly elevate your outfit. Consider subtle yet striking details like a vibrant lining or unexpected piping that surprise and delight.
- Luxurious Fabrics:
Layering with high-end fabrics adds a touch of elegance. A hint of velvet, a whisper of tulle, or a beautifully crafted cashmere piece can transform an ensemble, enhancing both texture and sophistication.
- A Statement Piece:
For those times when you aim to make a memorable impression, opt for a standout item. Whether it’s an exclusive limited-edition blazer, a silk shirt with distinctive French cuffs, or a tulle skirt paired with a tailored blazer, these own the room when you really need to work it.
Embracing Your Style
Investing in luxury plus-size work wear is about more than just clothing; it’s about embracing a style that reflects your confidence and individuality. The right pieces can help restate your confidence while celebrating your personal style, allowing you an extra edge at work when you need it.
As the fashion industry continues to evolve, the focus on quality and luxury in plus-size work wear is set to grow. And, we’re here for it. Our most recent survey results stated that one of the biggest pain points for plus size women was access to quality workwear. We will continue to curate options for our shoppers that are not only the highest quality, unique but reflective of their gorgeous style.
