This one’s all about our curvy girls. Yep, we’re calling out the most flattering dresses for plus size figures to accentuate everything mother nature gave you. Think slinky shift dresses, stellar fit and flares, figure-hugging minis, and failsafe relaxed fits which are as flattering as they are comfortable. It’s all on the table, so take a seat.

Flattering Plus Size Dresses: Fit and Flare

We’ll start at the top. More often than not, fit and flare dresses take the universal crown as the best dress style for plus size figures. The cinched waistline creates a beautiful hourglass effect by defining your waist, and flowing out at the hips. It’s also super flattering for bigger busts, as it provides more flexibility with the fabric than an ordinary pre-cut neckline. This style is ultra comfortable and will leave you feeling as confident as you look, from wedding guest days to date nights to party nights.

Shift Dresses

Simply put, shift dresses are dresses which hang straight down from the shoulders. They skim your silhouette without hugging your figure or feeling restrictive, and have a huge range of fun features and designs. From fringe and beading to unique patterns and tie dye prints, our shift dresses will take you from cocktails to dinner dates while you stay looking fresh and fierce.
