HOW TO SHOP LILLY WITH CURVES:
I did a post on the Lilly APS this January, so I’ll share my tips again here. I’ll cut to the chase, there are so many options for curvy gals. I am a 16/18w and easily wear their xl/xxl. Flowy cuts, cotton blends, and sizes XL and XXL (in some styles) will be your bff! I find the XXL to be cut like a 1x/2x. Their xl is cut more like a regular brand’s xxl/1x. I wear XL in most of their things and I am a 16w for reference. I wear some size 16 Lilly items, but all depends on the cut! If it’s flowy or long, it works a lot better. But, I stick to XL for the most part. I find their dresses, all tops, athletic/loungewear work to well with curvy body types! Shop the cotton materials and, if not cotton, the flowy silhouettes I mentioned! The best part about cotton is it can stretch where it needs to and stay put where it needs to. My friend Emily has an amazing Curvy Girls Guide to Lilly . She worked for Lilly and is a really reliable source for this kind of stuff!
TOPS
Ramona Sweater: (up to xl) I have last season’s version love it. I got the XL and it fit like a true 1X. I have a photo below of me in the old version.
Elsa Top: (up to xl) My favorite Lilly top (duh)! I am wearing the XL which fits like a 1x but is slightly tighter across the chest. If you need to loosen in that area you could wear with a cami and unbutton.
UPF 50 Skipper Popover: (up to xxl) Oh man, this popover is my best friend. I wear the XL and the XXL is great for anyone in the 1-2x range. Looks great with leggings or white jeans, too. My travel buddy.
BOTTOMS
UPF 50 Luxletic High Rise Weekender Legging: (up to xxl) I love these leggings! I get the xxl and find the crop to be a perfect length. The luxletic material is really dreamy, too.
UPF 50 Luxletic High Rise Weekender Legging: (up to xxl) This is the same style as above but just love this pattern!
DRESSES
Margot Maxi Dress: (up to xxl) I am OBSESSED with this dress!! This was my sale order and I got the XXL. I anticipate I might need to hem because I am not too tall, but the beauty in maxi dresses is you can knot the bottom!
Ophelia Swing Dress: (up to xxl) THE. HOLY. GRAIL. OF LILLY. DRESSES. I did a post on this dress back in December for a fun New Years look, and it is the best style Lilly has for curves! So flattering and the silhoutte was made for all body types. My favorite Lilly dress.
Wynne Maxi Dress: (up to xxl) I love this style! So cheery and for anyone who wants a maxi but doesn’t like bare arms, this is for you!
UPF Sophie Dress: (up to xxl) I am sharing more on this dress next week in a post, but this also comes up to xxl and is so dreamy on curves! The cutest patterns and a little less flowy than the Ophelia.
ACCESSORIES
How fun are all these accessories? The clutch with the bamboo closure is so cute! I love the pink as well. I love the sandals and hat, I think they are both so easy and fun. The little tech charger would be great for travel, and who doesn’t want to sip wine in their slippers?!
