If you’d like a little ease through the midsection, look for tops with gentle drape and shaping at the sides. Side ruching, a split hem or a length that falls past the hip all create a smooth line. A defined neckline also draws the eye upward. Many of our plus holiday tops are designed with exactly these details, so they look festive and feel comfortable.

Soft knits with a little stretch are the most comfortable choice for long holiday gatherings, because they move with you and keep their shape. Our holiday tops come in easy-care knit blends, many with a touch of spandex, and are made to be machine washable. Check the fabric and care details on each style, since blends vary.

A printed knit top or a holiday blouse is a lighter way to look festive, especially for heated rooms or busy parties. Our plus holiday tops feature seasonal prints, embroidery and pretty necklines that feel celebratory on their own. When the weather turns cold, you can layer one of our plus size sweaters over the top.

Start with a festive top and pair it with dark pull-on pants for a comfortable base, then add a cardigan or jacket for a polished layer. Let one detail, like embroidery or a rich color, be the star, and keep everything else simple. For complete party looks, browse our holiday party outfits or shop our plus size holiday gifts.
