How To Choose The Right Plus Size Cocktail Dress

As with any article of clothing you should first take your body type into account when choosing a plus size cocktail dress.

Rectangles want to keep their proportions while making their waists look smaller, and an empire waisted dress is a great way to do this.  This pleated dress is not overwhelming on a rectangle frame and the swing to the pleated skirt really helps add some curve appeal.

Apples want to minimize their midsections which means pull attention away from your middle to your great legs and arms.  This cute dress is strapless but comes with a jacket which will help to balance you out.  Stay away from bias cut dresses!

Hourglasses look great in just about any cocktail dress that has balance in it’s cut.  This little black dress with it’s ruched waist really underlines your great proportions but is not too daring, as hourglasses can tend to look overly sexy in deep cut clothing due to their curves.

Triangles gain the most weight in their upper backs, arms and chests and won’t want to wear anything strapless to look their best.  This pretty dress drapes around the upper body and pulls in with a ruched waist and sequin detailing giving you more proportion.  Love the A-Line skirt on this dress to gently even out your figure.

Pears generally have delicate upper bodies with a wider bottom and are predestined for these kinds of dresses.  Show off your great decoltée and shoulders with this strapless dress. The satin belt at the waist shows off your best assest while the flared skirt hides ample hips.  This cut is a must have!

All dresses can be found at Sydney’s Closet.
