Lovely Dresses For The Plus Size Woman For All Occasions
At last we are seeing Plus Size Dresses that are trendy, sophisticated and fashionable. I have to add about time! It's long overdue that we full figured women are treated with the respect we deserve. At the same time, I am aware that we need to be cautious in our selections. Just like our thin sisters, some styles and colors suit us and some don't. So we need to know our bodies and their best features and to bring out our gorgeous side. Some of the retailers and the designers are offering a lot of help with selection. They are conscious of our needs and our limitations and the range of styles we are seeing in the store is so much better than it was just a few short years ago. One of the categories that is seeing some beautiful selections is plus size formals and other occasion dresses. Big girls called as bridesmaids no longer have to dread an invitation. Plus size Juniors are also seeing a far better selection. One of the retailers that are conscious of our needs and cater to us is Nordstroms who have a separate Plus Size shop. Their sales assistants are specially selected and trained to serve the full figured woman. Nice to have that kind of help these enlightened days.
Don't flip when that formal invitation arrives. Today I saw this new arrival at Nordstroms. It's just a stunning gown in a glittering metallic design by JS Collections. The dress is a delicate mauve print chiffon and adds gorgeous shimmer to the sheer overlay covering a floor-sweeping gown. The shirred, surplice bodice is detailed with removable jeweled clips. Back zip with hook-and-eye closure. Flutter cap sleeves can be worn as shirred shoulder straps. Approx. length from shoulder to hem: 62". This really is one gorgeous dress. Nordstrom's item #287300 and is priced at $268. OK this one is a great dress for a daytime occasion. It's a Suzi Chin Maggy Boutique Faux Wrap Dress. This sleek, faux-wrap dress is patterned in a sophisticated graphic print. A soft tie ensures a waist-defining fit. In a Moroccean Blue polyester spandex. Nordstrom item #277466. the Price is $98 which is amazingly inexpensive. Now here's an outfit that would work very well in a work environment. A Robbie Bee Sheath Dress with Print Jacket. Cropped, elbow-sleeve jacket in an abstract geometric print tops a classic sleeveless sheath, beautifully tailored with princess seams and a slim, pleated skirt. Jacket has three-button closure; fully lined. Dress slips on over head; unlined. Approx. length from shoulder to hem: jacket 18"; dress 42".Polyester/spandex. Nordstrom's item #285916. The price is $98. Some really workable examples that, I think, prove my point about the current crop of plus size clothes. Things are getting better all the time!
