What's HOT @ Christmas Time In Plus Size Clothing


PURPLE PLEASER: Kerry Ann Murphy shows off a chic off-the-shoulder purple dress.

This Christmas, when it comes to dresses, whether you decide to wear it long or ultra-short, make sure it is full of colour, says Kerry Ann Murphy, manager of Bang Bang (plus-size) Clothing Store located inside Aboutique Mall, Port of Spain.

The traditional colours of red, green and gold seem to be a favourite for customers during this holiday season. From the sexy red heels to the fancy red dress, the Express visited the heart of Port of Spain last Tuesday to see what had many customers seeing red.

In almost every store window you looked there was red everywhere. From the clothes on display to the beautiful and elaborate Christmas ornaments which adorned many of the store showcases.

’We carry so many styles in dresses, including plus-size and generally when it is a luncheon or small party short dresses are ideal. For dinner, it is a little more formal so usually customers opt to wear full-length dresses. And this year bright colours such as orange, red, green and gold are very popular. And as for accessories it is usually simple and classy,’ Murphy said.

Echoing similar sentiments, Tinesha Buyer, the manager of the De Fuel Clothing Store, said, ’Though the little black dress will always be that one item of clothing that will remain timeless, this year women want colour for Christmas.’

And while the traditional colours of red, green and gold are the rage this season, store retailers have also seen the unconventional colours of pink, orange and purple striking a chord with women during this festive season।
