When you finally find the store that you like, and the dress that you want to have, then take note of the following tips.
1. Try the dress on.
Because not all plus size women dresses are made alike, there will be certain folds and creases where the designer's proportions do not meet your own. With the dress still on, walk out of the dressing room and test your appearance in different proportions and colors of light.
Some dressing rooms are built with yellow lights, so that you appear more attractive. Look for natural or white light to see how you look (just be sure to have a sales person with you, lest you be mistaken for a shoplifter).
2. Test how the dress feels on your body by sitting down with it.
Sometimes, a dress can be comfortable while you walk around in it, but it can tax on your spine if you sit down. You might want to opt for a larger size to accommodate the natural expansion of your hips and thighs as you sit.
You can always have the top or bottom of the dress tailored or altered. The key is to get a dress that not only makes you look sexy, but makes you feel comfortable to be dressed in.
3. Go for darker colors, since they can make you appear leaner and thinner.
In general, women of larger body proportions are advised to stay away from loud, vibrant prints. However, if you want to have dress patterns, go for small designs, such as tiny dots or flowers. Larger designs can draw attention to your body and curves.
You will also want to go for vertical lines, perhaps in the forms of candy stripes and pleats, as they can give the illusion of a long, lean body.
