A Guide to Choosing the Best Prints in Plus Size Women’s Clothing
Posted by SAURABH JAIN
At Saurabh Jain World, we've always stood by one belief: fashion should fit you, not the other way around. Designing for curves is not about "fixing" anything; it's about enhancing, empowering, and embracing who you already are. For us, print selection is one of the most exciting parts of crafting plus-size women's clothing, because prints have the power to express, flatter, and completely transform an outfit.
But with hundreds of styles, geometric, ethnic, floral, and abstract, how do you decide what works for you? Especially when shopping for plus-size fashion, prints can either uplift your entire look or completely overpower your frame if not chosen wisely.
Let us take you through the prints that we, as designers and as women, have seen work beautifully again and again on fuller silhouettes.
Start With You
Before we even touch a fabric or sketch a design, we always ask our clients: What's your vibe?
Your wardrobe should be an extension of your personality. Some women walk in and light up the room they love with bold checks or larger-than-life florals. Others are drawn to traditional, graceful styles, such as soft paisleys or timeless Jaipuri hand-blocks. There's no one "right" print; there's only what makes you feel amazing.
Let's explore how different types of prints can bring out the best in your style.
Lining Prints – Sleek, Structured & Always in Vogue
Let's bust a myth: vertical lines are not the only way to flatter a plus-size body. However, when used correctly, lining prints, mainly those that are vertical or diagonal, can add a sense of structure and elongation. We love using fine vertical stripes on long kurtas, co-ord sets, and even A-line dresses. They add sharpness without being too loud.
On the other hand, horizontal stripes can work wonders too. We've styled broad stripes in tunics with contrasting yokes or layered under shrugs to guide the eye the way we want.
Floral Prints – Effortless Femininity in Full Bloom
Florals aren't going anywhere, and honestly, we don't want them to. When chosen with care, floral prints are one of the most versatile styles in plus size clothing. They bring softness, elegance, and a lovely sense of movement to your outfit.
For daily wear, we love smaller floral motifs, think scattered prints or delicate vines. For festive or statement looks, we often opt for bold designs with large blooms strategically placed along hemlines, sleeves, or flares. The placement helps frame the silhouette beautifully without feeling too crowded.
Jaipuri Prints – Culture, Color, and Comfort in One
Jaipuri prints hold a special place in our design language. There's something deeply grounding and authentic about traditional hand-block designs, especially when they meet modern silhouettes.
These prints are rooted in Rajasthani cultural motifs, such as butas, florals, or geometric blocks, printed by skilled artisans. On plus-size clothing, these intricate designs help create balance, rhythm, and texture.
We love using Jaipuri prints on flared kurtas, tiered dresses, and festive sets. Cotton is our go-to fabrics. They breathe beautifully, especially in Indian climates.
Checks – Subtle, Sharp, and Stylish
Checks don't scream for attention, but they sure make people take a second look. They're clean, adaptable, and surprisingly bold when styled right.
We recommend smaller checks for those who love a polished, minimal look. They're perfect for shirts, work kurtas, or office dresses. For those who want to make a statement, extensive checks on co-ord sets or breezy dresses are a great choice.
Checks pair beautifully with plains. Think a check top with plain palazzos or a dupatta with a solid kurta. It's all about balance.
Paisley Prints – Classic, Curvy & Timeless
Paisley has been a part of Indian textile history for centuries, and there's a reason it has never gone out of style. It's flowing, teardrop shape complements curves in a way few other prints can. For plus-size fashion, paisleys offer visual interest without being too loud or busy.
We love styling paisleys on kurtas, dupattas, and even modern Indo-western gowns. They carry an old-world charm that suits both daytime and evening looks.
Our Go-To Print Styling Tips (From Our Design Table to Your Wardrobe)
Here are a few of our tried-and-tested styling secrets that we always share with our customers:
Highlight what you love: Use bold prints where you want the eye to go like around the hem or neckline.
Balance is everything: If your top has a busy print, go for a solid bottom and vice versa. Or break the look with a dupatta.
Choose the right scale: Smaller prints = subtle, polished. Larger prints = bold, statement-making.
Fit is queen: The most flattering print means nothing without a good cut. A well-fitted garment will always do justice to your curves.
Confidence is your best accessory: At the end of the day, how you feel matters most. If you love what you wear, it shows.
