we know that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, and that every woman deserves to live out her most fanciful fantasies in style and elegance. That is why we have put together a special section of plus sized evening dresses, prom dresses, cocktail dresses, and party dresses that are specially tailored to fit well and look great on you. So if you're shopping for something that is designed to fit your body well, you have come to the right place.
Before starting your shopping excursion to buy that gorgeous gown that will make you look wonderful, make sure you take the time to measure yourself correctly. This may be one of the most important steps in shopping for a dress because it will insure you pick a great dress that fits you well. The best thing to use is a soft tape measure or a ribbon to measure your bust around the fullest area, your waist (about 2 cm above your bellybutton) and your hips at the widest part. Don’t forget to write down your measurements so you don’t forget.
Once you have selected the dress you want, click on the size chart link which is right under the size selection box, and compare your measurements to the size chart. Never choose a size that is smaller than you are because dresses cannot be made larger by a seamstress. Always choose a dress that is either your size, or when in doubt, a little bit larger, because a good seamstress can always reduce the size of a dress that is a little large. Read on for some more general tips about picking a plus size evening gown or prom gown, because we want you to feel beautiful on your special night
If you want to take emphasis away from your tummy, it is always good to pick out a gown with either an A line cut or and Empire waist, which will accentuate your bust and downplay your tummy. These dresses feature loose, non form-fitting mid sections that gently glide over your tummy for a graceful and elegant look. Another popular choice is to wear form fitting underwear in order to tuck your tummy in just a bit.
If you are a girl with full hips and thick thighs it is always good to choose a gown that brings attention to your waist in order to give you a nice curvaceous appearance. Think about looking for dresses that are lighter on top and darker at the bottom, because these will make you look taller and thinner. Also, you may want to choose a gown with a more seductive bodice and plunging neckline in order to keep attention where you want it. Always think of using your greatest assets and downplaying the rest, and you will sure get some flattering looks.
