Plus-Size Kurti Shopping Guide: Fit, Cuts and Confidence

Great style is for every size. Finding clothes that fit well just takes knowing what to look for.

Start with an accurate size

Measure your bust, waist and hips and compare them with the size chart. Follow our sizing guide, and choose based on bust and hip measurements together.

Cuts that work

• A-line: skims over the hips and tummy.
• Straight cut with side slits: comfortable and long-lined.
• Empire waist: flatters the bust and flows below.
• Anarkali: defined waist with room in the flare.

Fabrics and prints

Soft, drapey fabrics such as rayon and crepe are comfortable and look elegant. Vertical stripes, medium prints and solid colours are very flattering, and so are dark shades.

Length

Knee-length to calf-length kurtis give a balanced look. Very short kurtis can feel restrictive.

Comfort details

• Check the sleeve opening and armhole.
• Look for stretch or ease at the waist.
• Choose breathable fabric in summer.
