When it comes to plus size fashion staples, tunics are a must have for every woman’s wardrobe. Whether you dress them up with skirts or capris, or dress them down with leggings and jeans, these plus size tops are one of the most versatile garments you can own. I’m also a huge fan of their lightweight, movable fabrics that gently outline your curves, without tightness or wrinkles. Tunics also make the perfect grab and go swimsuit cover up, and some are even long enough to double as dresses.
With plus size tunics, as with dresses and even plus size lingerie, you can find them as flowing or fitted as you’re comfortable with. While some are simple with little accoutrement, others feature pin tucked pleats, embroidery, ruching and smocking, fancy hemlines and fun, fluttery sleeves. Almost all of them are easily machine washable, which means you can spend more of your budget adding to your tunic collection, and less of your time caring for it.
Most of our selections are perfect for year round wear, but you’ll see several that are essentials for the warmer weather that’s coming. And lots of these tops and tunics range in sizes from 12 Plus all the way up to 38 Plus, so no matter your body shape and size, there’s a tunic just waiting to be slipped into that will make you feel gorgeous. Whether you’re a Bohemian babe, or simply a plus size fashionista, we’ll help you find the plus size tunic that’s perfect for you. Here are our picks for the Top 10 Best Plus Size Tunics for Women.
