For today, I thought I’d put them in front of you and let you explore for yourselves! Share on Facebook »
Dressing it up: plus size dresses for fall
It’s fall, and the dress (hallelujah!) is still with us. Lane Bryant actually made it into a running of my favorites, as did Igigi and Newport News. Take a look, click a few – see where it takes you! Share on Facebook »
Monif C. New(ish) releases
While I think most of us have seen the Monif C. Marilyn convertible dress, for holidays 2008 they’ve added a couple new dresses: Both are curve huggers and both present shoe-matching challenges. They are definitely made for plus women and yay for using actually plus sized plus size models! You can find other dresses... »
Dressy and Bright
I’m still seeing prints here and there for plus sizes, and they’re getting to be more OK, or maybe I’m just more OK with them. I’m also seeing some winter intros of brighter colors – a great pick me up for those of us stuck in a landscape of rain and... »
Lovely Igigi

Given that I’m midwestern and offended by the term “flyover” it’s unlikely – it just sort of worked out that way. I found three dresses that all look like they’d be fun and adaptable, though admittedly... »
Wanna Dress You up in My Love: Torrid Plus Dresses with 80s Looks
I have to admit that this revision of the bubble dress for a plus size does kind of work, assuming your hips would still work with the proportions of this dress (some will, some won’t.) It still takes the empire waist, but adds some nice ruching/detailing at the waist that keeps it from... »
A Pear-friendly dress
I really like the way the waist is defined – the dress is sweet and simple in its shape, but perfectly gussed up with sequin details – without making anyone look like a Vegas lounge singer. Share on Facebook »
