A Plus Sized Prom with David’s Bridal

Davids-Bridal-Prom-picks-

So… Prom. I remember it vividly. First the date, a fiasco that I dare not share (pure Hilarity looking back). The dress? So, back in 1998, there weren’t too many options for the young plus size girl looking for something cute and fashionable. If it fit, it was extremely dowdy, weird, or basically UGLY.

So what did I do?

I designed my dress. I sketched it out. Took my sketch to my family friend who was a seamstress and she crafted a fabulous royal blue strapless dress with a sheer jacket to match. And I felt fabulous. No one could tell me anything.

BUT.

Not everyone has those resources AND today’s plus size teen NOW has options for her that are fashion forward, on trend, AND in her size! One of those places delivering this for us is David’s Bridal. Seriously, David’s Bridal has seriously been onto something lately when it comes to accommodating the plus size woman! I would have never thought of David’s Bridal for Prom, but HA! They should

I have gone through the Plus Size Prom Dresses at David’s Bridal to share with you my favorites! Take a peek and let me know what you think!

My Top Plus Size Prom Dress Picks at David’s Bridal

Davids Bridal Plus Size Black Beaded Twist Neck Prom Dress

Davids Bridal Plus Size Baby Pink Strapless Pleated Prom Dress

Davids Bridal Plus Size Blue Beaded One Shoulder Prom Dress

Davids Bridal Plus Size Sleeveless Chiffon plus size Gown

David's Bridal Plus Size Pale Pink Strapless Prom Gown

When it comes to prom dresses, did you know about David’s Bridal? I, for one, am happy to see and to also see that quite a few of the same dresses in straight sizes are also included in plus sizes. Which I love!

You can check out the full plus size collection at DavidsBridal.com.

If you are on Facebook, head over and give them a like and if you are on Twitter, you can Follow David’s Bridal too!

Which dress do you like? What did you do for prom? What did you wear? I want to know and hear all about it!

    I got my prom dress my junior year from David’s Bridal and it is still in my mom’s closet. It was absolutely the most gorgeous dress ever and it’s timeless. I absolutely want to wear it again someday…….

         Well I’d have to get back to my junior prom size, but I would definitely consider the cocktail dress idea. Actually I have a designer friend here in Austin who does wonders with upcycling old dresses. Thanks for the idea!!

    I live in SLC, Utah. The local David Bridals here has so many options for plus sizes. They carry Vera Wangs “White” wedding line, too. Sizes go up to 26! The manager stated she personally met Vera Wang and VW stated, she wants brides and bridesmaids to fit her dresses!! I thought this was neat because in movies, I assumed you had to fit a Vera Wang dress, not the other way around.
