Your plus size guide to Spring 2014 trends: How to do crop tops, pastels and more!
Photography by Stephanie Florentina After a slow start, it looks like spring is finally here. Months of ogling new arrivals has prepped us for taking the Spring 2014 trend plunge and while some (read: crop tops) seem made exclusively for those size zero girls, fear not: I’m here to teach you how to appropriate Spring 2014’s top trends for the plus size girl.
Since reawakening the drab wintery closet of a plus size girl may be limited as there aren’t as many on-trend offerings, it’s easy to get intimidated. And while your go-to retailer of extended sizes may not always have what you want, it takes a little ingenuity to scour the petite section for curvy-friendly pieces with a little give or the glorious two-way stretch. Before you go shopping, here’s some outfit inspiration on Spring 2014 trends for the girl with a little more.

“I wish I had these on my feet right now,” one journalist lamented, inspecting a pair of Nicholas Kirkwood sport sandals at the designer’s Spring 2014 preview. Yes you heard that right. The same designers who brought heels to new heights have discovered rubber soles and flats.
It’s all part of the sportif trend which has a grip on Europe. On day two of the Paris Fashion Week Spring 2014, the backdrop at Carven was a half-pipe and the opening soundtrack was of skateboard wheels rolling up and down. The boarding spirit appeared in colourful camouflage prints with insets of camo lace. But Carven designer Guillaume Henry’s boxy jean jackets, A-line dresses and long stiff coats didn’t look made for motion.
He’s not alone. This is Paris, after all. Not the land of Lycra.

Dries Van Noten did a very smart thing here on day one of Paris Fashion Week Spring 2014. At the end of his show, the models lined up across the hall, facing the bleachers like a firing squad. After the music died down, guests climbed down and rushed toward the girls, so they could snap, tweet and gram them, of course.
It must have felt a bit creepy to be standing with your back to a wall as a stampede of phone-wielding fashion fiends came running toward you for a close-up. But no one said modeling was easy on the nerves.
Dries loves florals. These have a vague Asian whiff and came in shapes that still seem bedroom-y. Another theme were passementerie tassels that swung from tunics that looked homespun. But it was Dries’ perma-pleated ruffles that stole the show: gold foil ones snaked over hips, or were coiled into giant hip corsages.
Metal and high gloss shine, proved to be the story of the day. The sparkles at Rochas were blinding, even without the opera-length crystal necklaces. Shapes were relatively simple—polos, short-sleeved toppers, cropped pants—but the fabrics, wow. Silver jacquard florals, reflective nude lame, crystal embroidery, and what looked like helium-filled organza ruffles. Tassels showed up here from the ankles down, with ostrich feathers sweeping away the dust bunnies in style.
