Step into summer with plus size tanks

A tank is cool, breezy, and just perfect for hot weather! On hot days, a looser tank is ideal. Wear it with crop pants for a simple, fresh look. You could also try creating a mock jumpsuit by pairing a plus size cami with wide-legged pants in the same color or print. This has the elongating style of a jumpsuit, but bathroom breaks will be far easier to manage!

There are tanks of all different styles, colors, and patterns, so feel free to experiment. Tanks with unusual detailing at the neckline or shoulders are a great way to draw attention to your top half, and ideal if you want to minimize broader hips. Try a tank with a keyhole neckline, a flowing waterfall neck, or tie details at the shoulders. There are so many options to choose from!

Layer up! Using plus size tanks to create a unique look

Plus size tanks are a great choice if you want to develop your layering skills. As they have no sleeves, they work perfectly under jackets, without fabric bunching up or constricting your movement. A plus size cami is ideal for wearing under an open blouse or jacket - even better if it has a hint of lace peeking out for a feminine, flirty look. You could also try wearing a solid plus size tank under a loose top in a sheer, patterned fabric for a sophisticated, classy daytime style.

Frequently asked questions about our plus size tanks for women

How can I wear a plus size tank top if I don't like baring my arms?

A lot of girls see their upper arms as a problem area - but don't let that stop you from rocking a fabulous plus size tank! If you want to cover up, you can go for the layered look with a cute jacket over the top. For more formal occasions, a bolero will look great over a tank top. Want something unique? Drape a silk scarf around your shoulders to artfully cover your upper arms and give your tank a fun, fresh style.

What style of plus size tank is best for my body shape?

If you're an apple shape, try a loose-fitting plus size tank that will gently skim over your midsection. You can also rock a longer tank with a hem that hits at the hips to minimize your tummy. Pear-shaped girls should avoid long-line tanks, as they can make broad hips look broader. Instead, choose a shorter style and make sure to show off your fabulous waist! Busty? Look for a tank with a V-shaped neckline. This is usually the most flattering style for a larger bust.

Which colors and patterns of plus size tank will work best for me?

Play around with different colors and prints, and you might be surprised to discover what works best with your skin tone. When building an outfit, stick to the basic rule: choose a lighter color, or a print, in the area that you want to emphasize, and a darker color, or a solid, for features you want to downplay. That means that a patterned tank worn with plain pants will draw the eye upward, while light-colored pants and a simple, dark tank will work if your legs are your best feature.
