^i normally cover using layering of wigs and hair, most of looks i use extensions or boombo basic shirt in black or white. i like to merge two pieces in my layering... like.. I keep trying, I have pieces that cover one part like a baggy sleeve and other pieces that cover the other and then merge to make a new piece

It's becoming easier to make outfits for the Boombo/divine skin because there's clothing in the shop intended for the plus sized skins.

When I started, that was not the case. If you look through my looks, most of them are made with skirts or dresses. This is because wide skirts or dresses made for the original body are wide enough for a Boombo. There are a few wide pant options, like the Villainelle pants.

You can also try layering items from the digital section & other shop. For example, the children or pets can be layered to help cover up gaps. In one of my uncategorized looks with the denim jumper, I used background items from the digital section to cover up the legs.

Queerla also has used the glowing outline of a body (which I think is from digital) as a layer to help cover gaps.

Your looks are so great everybody!
I did find that the glowing "power" outlines, especially layered on top of each other for greater opacity or for tweaking the shade, do a good job to fill out the boombo legs for pants or for stockings. I also found that stockings, socks, or pants that had either no shading, or a darker shade in the middle and a lighter shade toward the edges of the legs, help make a decently cohesive looking pant. That also can work with different colored skins, especially now that there are multiple colors of Jessica boobs available--my summertime trans rights Abby look uses a blue skin, blue Jessica boobs, blue and I think both black and white power outlines, and I think the blue alien beam, whatever that's called in digital, and the distraction of a similarly colored blue background against pink hair behind the skin and shiny underwear and a leather bra from the big boobs section to give the illusion of a totally blue, plus size body, and it's not seamlessly perfect but I think it's pretty good? I had some luck with the red skin on an older devil/punk look with a similar technique that's either still a look or somewhere on my profile, with some layered wider skirts and a scarf to cover the torso and then a jacket over that. Layering boombo or divine items under smaller items helps. The other thing I do is use the pidgeot scarf, now in many colors, to cover the torso, make cleavage by layering either like, the jessica boobs or a partial regular torso, and do clothes on top of that. Or the babydoll dress fits on the bimbo and divine skins, you just have to think about the chin on the boombo skin if you want to make it look less like a fatsuit and more like a fat person. Hair is useful but I've been doing a lot of half shaved or otherwise punky/short hair since my outfit aesthetics trend toward punky/dykey, so creative use of scarves, bras, coats that cover part of the body, and the handful of bags that hang off the right bent arm can be helpful. And since we still don't really have boombo or divine underwear that's separate pieces, I've found the big boobs section to be useful either for bras, or for fishnets that can be layered and draw the eye away from weird cuts. A lot of the newer pieces with puffy sleeves are useful either as background color or as features, those sparkly gloves are great--playing with volume and even using the peekaboo cutouts in the skins section for cleavage where you're actually covering the whole torso is also helpful. The divine body is harder in some ways because the bent right arm goes above most of the clothing options we have, even things with more volume, whereas the boombo body you could find more items that match the arm outline, but the divine chest is easier to work with and there's no fatsuit implications to work around so I've been moving more toward the divine skin for newer looks lately.

Those are all really good additional tips, and I wanted to add some of the sleeves/drapes in the glove section are really good for covering the Divine arm bend.
Here's a few looks I've got (mostly, party needs a few things for clipping) finished: Seasonal, Date, Party!
