Size doesn’t define you…
Also, we strongly believe that brides can wear exactly what they want on the big day. It just has to make them feel their absolute best. So, you won’t find any rules and regulations here about what you can and can’t wear because of your shape. However, if you are looking for some guidance on great dresses for fuller figures, who better to share their favourite designs than our real brides?
We’ve crunched the data and found our best-selling styles in larger sizes. These are designs that provide great support, are super flattering but, most of all, made the brides who wore them feel absolutely amazing! So, with no further ado, here are 10 best dresses for plus size brides, as chosen by our brides…
The Top 10
1. The delicately supportive one… Prisha
Let’s start with this popular choice from Viva Bride. Prisha is a glamorous A-line with scattered floral appliqués and a stunning glitter tulle skirt. It has illusion straps that flow into a lined bodice with a form-fitting, lace-up back that cinches in the waist beautifully. The deceptively delicate straps have also been carefully designed to offer good support for bigger busts, while still looking dainty.

2. The glamorous one… Aimee
Available in sizes from 8 to 20, Aimee looks amazing on everyone. This stunning, sparkling A-line is fully lined with on-trend detachable straps and a magnificent statement train. It's truly unique, making it one of the best dresses for plus size brides wanting to stand out! Modern oversized floral embroidery like this looks great in larger sizes too, as smaller lace motifs can feel too busy. This pattern has plenty of stunning detail without overwhelming the overall look of the dress.

3. The boho one… Wilma
Wilma by Heidi Hudson is a stylishly plain chiffon gown with chic gathered waistband and modern balloon sleeves. It’s a really popular choice in every size, as the deep V neckline draws the eye to the smallest part of the waist, while the flowing fabric keeps it looking lightweight. The catwalk-style sleeves are also perfect for flattering the upper arm area, while the split skirt shows just the right amount of sexy thigh, a daring choice and one of the best dresses for plus size brides.

4. The glittering one… Dani
Our sparkle-loving brides adore Dani. This luxurious A-line, with rainbow glitter tulle skirt, floral bodice and statement draped bows, has a high-fashion, catwalk feel. The sweetheart neckline is a classic bridal look, but the bows add something quite unique. They can also be hand tied to personalise your look.

5. The timeless one… Matthea
A classic A line, Matthea has a sweetheart bodice with delicate button back, slim illusion straps and a soft tulle skirt. A-lines are our most popular silhouette, as the balanced shape flatters every figure. This is also a great choice if you’d like less volume. The soft tulle skirt skims gently over the hips creating a slimmer silhouette than other A-line styles.

6. The romantic one… Siobhan
Available in complexion flattering blush up to a size 30, Siobhan is a firm favourite with all our princess brides. A beautiful ballgown with exquisite lace and a showstopping keyhole back, it’s designed to make fairytales come true. What’s more, the illusion straps, softly dipped neckline and form-fitting, lace-up back mean it’s super supportive and comfortable, too, making it one of the best dresses for plus size bride

7. The modern classic… Yustina
Yustina by Aaliyah Quinn is a striking mix of both minimalist and maximalist styles. The simple silhouette features shimmering, lightweight burnout organza, which gives it a stunning catwalk edge and a rich luxurious feel. The pleated sweetheart bodice is also a modern take on a traditional bridal gown with cleverly crafted pleating to shape and support the bust. Did we mention it has all-important hidden pockets, too?

8. The bold floral one… Alva
Alva’s long sleeves paired with a plunging neckline are the perfect combination of modest and daring. When you add in the soft tulle skirt and beautiful florals, what’s not to love about this confidently feminine look? Plus, if you’d also like to discreetly flatter the tricky upper arm area, then illusion sleeves are a great choice.

9. The contemporary chic one… Byron
Next, we have sleek and simple Byron by Sofia Cruz, which shows that plain is anything but boring. Available in every size from 6 to 30, the wrap-across effect of the straps flatters the décolletage and contours under the bust, giving support but also definition. Then there’s the voluminous, extra long skirt which will make the aisle feel like your own personal runway, we promise! Plain mikado is ever popular and makes Byron one of the best dresses for plus size brides.

10. The ultimate luxury sparkle one... Nella
Lastly, we have Nella, which really has maximum wow factor from every angle. Made from shimmering layers of sequin tulle, this dazzling A-line features a sweetheart bodice, gorgeous illusion straps and a ravishing full skirt. It’s also strikingly embellished with thousands upon thousands of glittering glass beads. What’s more, it’s available in every size from 6 to 30. So, if you want to make a real impact, this could be ‘The One’ for you.
