Trying to find a plus size wedding dress, whether it be online or offline, can be maddening. Not only is it difficult finding a beautiful gown that fits and looks good on you, but also finding one that doesn't cost a fortune.
For some reason plus size clothing has always been more expensive than standard size clothes. It just doesn't seem fair that just because you wear a size 20 instead of a size 10, you automatically get charged more. After all the size 10 dress is not more expensive than the size 2. A lot of bridal retailers will also charge extra for plus size garments. I guess it is because there is more fabric used. If this is true then why are lingerie and bikinis so expensive? Just wondering.
So where do you find a bargain wedding dress that doesn't look like it? I have found a few places on line that sell very beautiful plus size wedding dresses that are high quality, and are also very reasonably priced. Sydney's Closet has some extremely pretty, quality plus size wedding gowns, and some are even under $200.Their dresses are shown on plus size models which is most helpful when deciding on what will look good on a full figured woman, without having to try on countless garments yourself. You can also look in classified ads, or search eBay for used wedding dresses, but be careful where you buy, and don't go too cheap. Those super cheap gowns may be made from low quality fabrics, or the retailer may not be reliable. Used wedding dresses can have stains, or rips and tears you don't see right away so be careful. Also, make sure that you get accurate measurements. Keep in mind that wedding gown sizes tend to run smaller than regular dresses, so you may want to err on the larger size and have it taken in, rather than getting a size too small and pay for more material to let it out.
Don't give up when looking for a good deal on your wedding dress, if you know where to look there are plenty of plus size gowns to choose from that are gorgeous, and definitely wont break the bank.
