When it comes to shopping for your dream wedding dress, there are few things more exasperating than falling in love with a style you see online, tracking it down, trying it on, and realizing it does absolutely nothing for your natural figure. (Bizarre puckering at the waistline, anyone?) Lucky for you, we’re obsessed with fit at Maggie Sottero Designs, and we’ve got a few favorites that are guaranteed to look and feel like magic in the fitting room. Consider these 15 flattering wedding dresses for a plus size bride from our newest collection, and tips for perfecting your overall wedding day look.

Before we get started, for the gorgeous curvy bride ready to find her dream wedding gown, here are a few words of inspiration from Liris Crosse, one of our iconic curvy models: “Plus-size modeling has changed how I look at other people and how I look at myself. It’s helped me accept who I am, and it’s helped other people to accept who they are. We are all unique; every bride is unique. Maggie Sottero will definitely have a dress for my love story when I am ready to make it happen.” Now, keep scrolling!
