Hey all!! Going dress shoppping soon but trying to figure out what dress will look beat on me. I'm 4'10 and 300 pounds of sunshine and terror! Lol! I wear a size 24/3 or 4x. Im top heavy with 48DDD, big belly with an annoying hang over and big upper arms. I am surprisingly solid, not that lumpy...
Hey all!! Going dress shoppping soon but trying to figure out what dress will look beat on me. I'm 4'10 and 300 pounds of sunshine and terror! Lol! I wear a size 24/3 or 4x. Im top heavy with 48DDD, big belly with an annoying hang over and big upper arms. I am surprisingly solid, not that lumpy lumpy or sloppy and look good in just about everything. Wedding dresses scare me and most pictures depict a size 2 model. So what dress would fit me and what tips do you have for accessories etc. Thanks in advance.

    I actually own a Mori Lee ivory wedding gown in size 23. Has a halter neck. Let me see if I can get a photo up! If you or any plus size bride loves it I'm happy to give it to you for cost of shipping only. Passing on the love! 💜

    This is the dress. It's pinned to fit my model. I love the neckline! I was in the buying/selling wedding dresses online but I'm too busy now so only have a handful of dresses left in my cupboard. As I said, I'm happy to help out a bride in need if this is you or another lady. Smiley smile

    The dress I chose. Getting it altered to be a strapless dress with an empire waist.

    I would love to know what bridal salon you found that caters to plus size women. I don’t have any in my area. TIA!

    I went to Brides by Young, located in Indianapolis. They were amazing! They also have a store in Schaumburg Illinois. I highly recommend them. They had so many dresses and focus only on plus size brides.
