I am in the exact same situation as the other poster I was just about to start ssuch a thread. I am plus size and realy on a lower buget. But I know its probobly unrealistic. If anyone has ant ideas. I wish I didnt have to wear a gown but eveyone else is. I want to look beutiful and flattering and not feel embaressed in no gown or unflattering gown.

What color, size, and style preference? And what's your preferred budget and what's your max? I'd love to help you find something you'll love and look beautiful in

I kind of straddle the line between regular sizes and plus in gowns (I’m very short and gowns tend to run a bit small), and my SIL is getting married so I just spent the last 2 months searching for a gown which I finally got last week. My point is, most department stores - Macy’s, Nordstrom, lord and Taylor, etc - have GORGEOUS plus sizes. And some are not even expensive! My biggest issue was my SIL chose a very specific hard to find color. But they had a ton of beautiful dresses in all sizes. Do some online shopping! You’ll find something!
If you can use a size 20-ish purple gown, I have a gorgeous one. (It’s my mothers old one so it would work for someone a little more mature as well).

Now is a SUPER time to buy a gorgeous plus size gown from Macys or Lord and Taylor. I bought my 2 sister of the bride gowns, one from each store at their post holiday end of season sales.
You may even find a classic plus gown at Jcpenney online.

I want something flattering that doesn't emphasize the bust , not clingy,I am fat at my hips and back too. iIam a young person so not a older lady looking gown, I don't look good on jumper gowns. I was not successful in davids bridal. buget the least the better defenitly not more than $300 really can't even afford that

Thanks for this thread, hoping to hear suggestions here because I'm also plus size and have a wedding coming up.
I'm about a 3x and it's just so so difficult to find clothes in my size. Wish there'd be more plus size clothing options.

Try eshakti.com
I made a gown for a siblings wedding. Neckline, sleeve length and length are all customizable for 9.99 flat fee. I emailed that I needed it rushed and got it in time.
My cousin got one from there recently for her bil wedding.

I find that macys and nordstrom has a nice selection. They have more online than in store usually. When I needed a gown I ordered a bunch online tried on at home and returned the rest.
