BlogHer Tuesday: Great Dresses for Plus-Size Figures

Brandy wrote:

I am a plus size (size 16/18), curvy woman who finds it difficult to find dresses to wear that flatter my figure without making me look older than I am (32) and without making me look like I’m wearing either a sack or a muumuu. I have had some luck with a knit wrap dress, but was wondering what other styles I should look at, preferably in solid colors?


Avenue butterfly sleeve dress

What should she wear? The answer is here.

Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time to help me. I am rather curvy so the the dresses you recommended should work quite well. And the reason I asked about solid colors, I am rather shy and hate to attract attention to myself.
Again, Thanks!

You're welcome, Brandy! And think about a small pattern or a subtle color; if you don't want to call attention to yourself, toss a sweater over the dress.

Try them on. Really.

These are very nice suggestions for dresses! I was elated to see that Old Navy has some nice clothes out this spring that flatter those of us with hips and tummies. Thanks for the suggestions and the introduction to a new store I'd never heard about.
