Finding perfect plus size bridesmaid dresses to fit and flatter your girls’ curves used to be tough. Now, more and more brands are offering stunning bridesmaids dresses in a mix of sizes, heights and body types, so you’re guaranteed to find a dress that makes everyone feel confident and look gorgeous.

Don’t despair if you have a whole range of body types and sizes among your bridesmaids. If you’d like your bridesmaids to all dress in the same design, shops like ASOS, Boohoo and Quiz are brilliant at offering their dresses in petite, tall and curvy options.

Now designers have finally got the message that shopping doesn’t stop at size 16, there’s heaps of incredible options! Don’t blame us if you find it hard to choose between them…
