What Are the Most Flattering Plus Size Dress Styles for Weddings?

Not all dresses are created equal, and that’s a good thing. Different silhouettes and cuts help highlight your favorite features while offering all-day comfort. Here are some of the best-loved styles in our collection of wedding guest dresses for plus size women:

• A-Line Dresses: Universally flattering and endlessly versatile, A-line dresses nip at the waist and gently flow out, making them a go-to for weddings of all kinds.
• Wrap Dresses: These dresses not only define the waist but also allow you to adjust for the perfect fit. They’re especially great as wedding guest dresses for big tummy concerns, offering comfort and style in equal measure.
• Maxi Dresses: Elegant, elongating, and easy to wear, maxi dresses are ideal for formal events or beach weddings. Look for flowy fabrics that drape beautifully and move with grace.
• Empire Waist Gowns: Perfect for accentuating the bust and flowing over the midsection, this silhouette offers a romantic look and all-day comfort.
• Fit-and-Flare Styles: A little more tailored than A-line but still incredibly flattering, this style highlights curves without feeling restrictive.
  

What Are the Best Plus Size Wedding Guest Dresses for Different Dress Codes?

Whether the invite says black-tie or beach casual, there's a perfect plus size wedding guest outfit for every setting. Here’s how to match your look to the vibe of the day:

Formal & Black-Tie Wedding Guest Dresses

For a black-tie celebration, long gowns or floor-length plus size formal wedding guest dresses are ideal. Think shimmering beadwork, elegant fabrics like chiffon or satin, and silhouettes that bring the drama without sacrificing comfort.

Semi-Formal & Cocktail Wedding Dresses

A plus-size cocktail dress for a wedding strikes the perfect note for evening receptions or semi-formal venues. Look for midi lengths, wrap styles, or fitted bodices with flowy skirts in rich tones or subtle prints.

Casual & Beach Wedding Guest Dresses

For daytime or destination weddings, consider light, breathable fabrics and breezy silhouettes. Plus-size dresses for wedding settings like these often feature floral prints, lightweight materials, and easy movement, ideal for sand, sun, or laid-back venues.
