A thread just for PlusSize Brides

Original post by aimerliny

I thought it might be good to start our own thread. We're all in the same boat, and we can help each other find things we need, vent about issues, support each other's diets.

Anyone interested?

I do have a question... My sister is aplus size with a very large chest. She is my MOH & i want her to be comfortable & happy in the dress she is wearing that day! She has been dieting & has lost 32lbs! IM SO PROUD OF HER! I love her in any case. So my question is if you have any plus size BM's where did you purchase their dresses? I know all dresses today come in plus sizes but lets face it the shops still only carry up to 14. They hardly ever carry a 18/20 and i want my sister to see what sh look like in it. CAN ANYONE HELP????

PS> we have tried Davids Bridal the didnt have anything we iked.



Wish I could help you. Think the pickings are slim when it comes to BM samples that are larger. I went to Fantasia Bridal and they had the Alfred Angelo separates that were great. I'm large on top as well and having the separates made it easy for me to have the perfect fit. That may be an option for you. GL.

I know Old Navy has a plus size section online. What about this

Actually at old navy I am an XL shirt and sweater size. So I could actually buy the white short sleeve hoddie.

YAY! thank you so much.

That site actually has a lot of cute stuff. They also have wedding dresses and cute cocktail dresses.

It seems like all of the wedding dresses out there are sleeveless. I'm not a big fan of my arms. Do a lot of dresses have the option of a bolero?

hi girls!!! shockingly enough I bought my dress at Davids even with their disgraceful customer service

I went hoping to try a few styles (NOTHING Strapless or puffy) and I walked out with a strapless dress with all pick ups. But I LOVE IT on!

I love this thread by the way.

Petrified of strapless!!! Don't think I can pull it off but guess I shouldn't count it out.

Not only are my arms an issue but I have a large tattoo on my back that some will find inappropriate. I'm just going to have to go in with an open mind and see how it goes.

where did u girls get you garters...??



I plan on getting mine from this companyhttp://www.gartersbygingersnap.com/index.html

They can custom make it to your size. We love the Yankees and Giants so I'm getting the sports combo one. Think torrid has them too but can't remember. I actually did a google search and found a few sites that have plus size garters.


ETA: I also considered using this sitehttp://www.stockingstore.com/plus-sized-garter-belts-s/56.htm




thanks !!

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear it's worth the money. FH thinks I'm crazy, but it's so us and we're really being budget conscious so figure why not.

Fredricks' has some plus size stuff too. I had gone there before I had my breast reduction because NOTHING would fit me!
