In the meantime, here are our favorite wedding dresses for plus-sizes.

A-Line Wedding Dresses

Anything a-line is automatically flattering, as it is tight through the bodice, providing support, hugs at your natural waistline, and flows out in the skirt. These flowy, drapey gowns are ideal for the bride who wants to feel supported, showing off her waistline while keeping the rest of her figure discreet under a skirt.

Style 7177 – floral lace dress with vine detailing, v-neckline, and low back

Style 6843 – long sleeve wedding dress with delicate plunge neckline, lace sleeves, and a simple chiffon skirt

Style 7283 – a simple flowy wedding dress with petal lace, a v-neck bodice, and a simple top

Mermaid Wedding Gowns

A mermaid dress is made of a tight-fitting bodice which hugs your curves, flowing out at toward the bottom of the dress (around your knees). These fitted gowns are ideal for showing off all of your beautiful curves while feeling completely secure! Picking a lace-adorned style will ensure you feel secure and beautiful. We love an off-the-shoulder dropped sleeve for additional neckline detailing!

Style 6743 – a mermaid wedding dress with dropped cold shoulder beaded sleeves

Style 7272 – a fitted wedding gown with off-the-shoulder sleeves, gentle sparkle, and simple ivory lace

Style 6716 – a mermaid silhouette with geometric detailing, a sweetheart strapless neckline, and lace appliqués

Ball Gown Wedding Dresses

A timeless ball gown is perfect for the pear shaped bride who wants to really emphasize the slimmest part of her body – her waistline! The fuller skirt will provide total coverage past the waistline, all while making you feel like a princess!

Style 6959 – a princess wedding dress with sparkle tulle, dainty beading, and the perfect spaghetti straps

Style 6993 – a lace ball gown with floral detailing, a chapel train, and glitter

Style 7115 – a garden-inspired off-the-shoulder ball gown with large botanical appliqués and a full skirt
