I am only having one MOH and one BM. My MOH is about a size 26 and my BM is about a 10 so I was going to mix and match there dress. My MOH has really big arms and she keeps them covered. So I want to do this with her dress. Well I have looked on the web for plus size dress it is really starting to make me mad. All the plus size dresses they show in size 10 and smaller. Hello these dresses will look total different on a large person. Why do they not think of this? Any one know of a good web site that shows plus size women dresses...

You're right - there are many stores offering larger sizes but god forbid they post pictures of the larger sizes!

I'm going crazy not all women are small. I found a dress I really like. My mother made it for me in high school for a prom and it was a size 16 well the patterns go up to 22. grrr I can't find nothing like this pattern in any thing above that. To beat that I can't find a formal dress that looks good above the same size. Now on the search for someone to make custom made patterns. This is more trouble then it's worth.grrr

I got my wedding dress from an online site that also features a small selection of bridesmaid dresses up to size 26. They mostly seem sleeveless which is a good and bad thing- not necessarily the most flattering but no worries of tight sleeves.

I was pleased with how fast it got to me and the quality of it. They are pretty reasonably priced too. And I am NOT on commission and have no affiliation with them despite my sounding like an infomercial here!!

Good luck

I really don't want to go with strap less It has to have thick straps. I'm not going to put someone in a dress that I wouldn't wear. It scares me to buy a dress on line with out seeing the color in person and feeling the fabric.

She is fine with me posting this picture. I'm totally drunk here so forgive my looks. It was taken on my 24th b-day. I tried to find a better one but just don't have one that shows all of her. Plus hse gained another 30 when she had her baby.
