Anyone have a plus size Mom?

Hi ladies, I am starting MOB dress shopping but I don't think she is going to fit into the samples...She lost 14 lbs so far and is shooting for another 15. Is there somewhere we can go where they have larger samples? David's Woman or something?
Thanks!

Mine is. She bought her dress at Moonlight Couture in Merrick. She decided to put two dresses together (the dress of one and the jacket of another). They have a combination of sizes and was able to try on a size 20 of one dress, the other dress she used the sample was only a size 12.

I'm going to second Queen of Hearts. My mother bought the gorgeous dress she wore to my sister's wedding there. She was able to try on lots and lots of dresses, and some of the sample were even big on her - which she loved, since that practically never happens.

My mom got her dress at Dimensions in Cedarhurst. They are a plus size dress shop with sizes that go up to the 30s. My mom is a rather modest dresser. This is her dress:

How are their prices??

Do you buy the dress right from the rack or do you have to order?

Thanks!
