How to Style Plus Size Co-ords for Different Body Types

Co-ords are cute, comfy, and totally on-trend — and yes, they suit every shape.

If you’ve ever looked at a co-ord set and thought, “Will this even suit my body type?” — you’re not alone. At The Plus Size Co, we’ve heard it all: “I’m too curvy for matching sets.” “I have a tummy, so I can’t pull it off.” “I’m not confident in pants.”

We get it — but let us tell you something: Co-ords can work for every body type — it’s just about styling them right.


🧁 1. Apple-Shaped Bodies

You carry more weight around your midsection.

Style Tip: Go for co-ords with A-line or flared tops that don’t cling to the tummy. Choose sets with longer lengths or side slits to break up the silhouette.

🍐 2. Pear-Shaped Bodies

You have a smaller upper body and fuller hips/thighs.

Style Tip: Look for co-ords with printed or detailed tops and solid bottoms. This balances your shape and draws attention upwards. Straight or palazzo pants are perfect!

🔷 3. Rectangle-Shaped Bodies

Your body is evenly proportioned without a defined waist.

Style Tip: Add shape with belted co-ords, cinched waists, or peplum styles. You can also go bold with prints — they add dimension and drama.

⏳ 4. Hourglass-Shaped Bodies

You have balanced hips and bust with a defined waist.

Style Tip: Highlight your waist! Choose fitted or wrap-style tops, or tuck in the kurta/top slightly at the waist for shape. Go for co-ords that follow your natural curve — not hide it.

🧡 Flaunt Your Curves with Confidence


🎯 Pro Tips for Styling Co-ords (No Matter Your Shape)

  • ✔️ Choose breathable fabrics like cotton or rayon — they fall better on curvy bodies
  • ✔️ Pick side slits or high-low cuts for movement & shape
  • ✔️ Don’t shy away from color — prints and solids both work!
  • ✔️ Keep it simple. Co-ords do the heavy lifting for you!
