I call this my uniform. I have a couple in black and then some other colors and wear it with different printed skirts . Both maxi or pencil. I wear it all year round with a modal shell underneath . They wash well, dry flat.
Sometimes I close it with a pretty gold button type of pin so it looks like it has a button and it’s not flying open revealing all my blubber. Or I close it with a safety pin.
Ever since I became plus size this became my go to “cover up”. and also it’s versatile . I wear it on Shabbos too if it goes with what I’m wearing.

Notice in the reviews the pics . Some
Of them are shorter on top and layer and some are like the picture I’m showing where it points down. I have the one where it points down. It’s more flattering .

Check the reviews. There are usually posts with people of all sizes showing how it fits

Follow Alyssa Goldwater on IG. She is plus size and models all of the clothes that she promotes. She promotes a lot of Amazon items which are very affordable as well as a lot of not so affordable (for me) high-end frum brands. I like her because she wears the clothing so you could see how it looks, and she is REAL plus size, not like a size 8. Because she is an influencer, she is. Nogeah b’davar, so as always, I take her recommendations for what they are, and you might disagree with them. This is true for any influencer of course. But overall, I appreciate her content.
On that note, she has a link to a fit and flare dress that I actually have a bunch of that I’ve been wearing before I knew who she was. This just comes in $1 million, it’s very washable and you can throw it in the dryer, and it looks great on plus size bodies.

@watergirl how tall are you and where does it fall out on you? I’m 6 ft and thinking it’ll be too short. Otherwise I love it .

I’m 5 feet and I love the length (it’s quite long on me).

Where does it fall on you? It’s about an inch above my ankles.

Looking at this dress and the reviews. It sounds like for bigger chest it might not be as good. Also is it see through? Can you see your bra lines through it?

I have a pretty big chest. Yes you can see bra lines, but it’s not an issue for me because I wear a shell always.
