What Are Plus Size Wedding Dresses?
Plus size wedding dresses refer to styles created for brides looking to show off their natural curves and lush silhouettes. These silhouettes are usually designed with supportive tailoring: premium corsetry, built-in shapewear, and extra coverage for booties, busts, and thighs. Premium wedding dress designers (like Maggie!) will usually offer curvy wedding dresses up to size 28.
At Maggie Sottero, we design all our collections with the “Maggie Magic,” AKA the perfect overlap of style, construction, and comfort for every bride. As part of our commitment to DEI and social responsibility, we’re all about creating a range of diverse and very wearable silhouettes with great details — a perfect gown for every bride’s vision, budget, and body type. All our wedding gowns are available in US sizes 0-28, with many styles tailored specifically for extra support, coverage, and magic that enhances your curves.
The “Maggie Magic” is also about personalization options! We’ve designed our collections for brides to curate their perfect wedding look for their body type, budget, timeline, and vision. As you explore our collections, keep an eye out for sister style variations, accessories, pricing filters, and Quick Ship options… These will help you find the perfect style for your perfect day!
What Do Brides Have to Say?
Shelby Eaton: “I absolutely love that it came in black. Not a lot of designers offer colored gowns! I also loved that there is a built-in bra/support, so everything is more secure since it’s strapless. The dress also has POCKETS. I would rate it 10/10. I have never felt more confident or beautiful in a dress. This dress snatched my waist and held everything exactly where it should’ve been.”

Cara Nia: “This dress was so comfortable but elegant. The lace details and the shimmer were just perfect! It definitely passed the “sit down” test!”
Kallie Copland: “I felt truly beautiful in my dress. As a tall, plus size woman, the bridal world felt inaccessible to me. This Maggie Sottero dress was the perfect antidote to that feeling. I felt like the most beautiful bride and truly just could not wait for everyone to see me in Cyprus.”

Marie Freschl-Jimenez: “I loved my wedding dress. As someone who has struggled with body image and weight, I am used to being limited in designs available for me. This dress took me out of that and gave me opportunity to truly embrace everything about me. It allowed me a moment to celebrate myself rather than focus on the insecurities.”

Maribel Cahill: “The dress is lightweight and makes it so easy to dance the night away. It also made me feel the right amount of sexy since it was tight and a little low in all the right places. My husband couldn’t stop saying how beautiful I looked.”

Jamie Rutter: “The pockets are a hidden gem in this dress, but honestly, its best feature is how flattering it is. The beautiful A-Line silhouette truly makes you feel like a princess.”
