Finding the right evening dress could be the difference between looking the bell of the ball or more like resembling the post-twelve o clock Cinderella.
However there are some easy ways to ensure that you look and feel your best by choosing the correct plus-size women’s dresses to suit every shape and size.
Always choose age appropriate dresses
It can make you look less classy if you choose a dress that was designed for a younger woman, it gives the impression you are not comfortable with yourself and can often look cheap and tacky. There are hundreds of shops on the high-street or online that offer beautiful age appropriate dresses for the plus-size lady.
Choose the Halter Neck
Halter Neck dresses are a must for any plus-size wardrobe. Halter Neck dresses allow you to flatter your arms and allow you to showcase your back. They take the attention off the larger body area by attracting the attention away from the main body area.
Short-dresses
This is another classic style dress for the plus-size lady, which allows the focus off the main body area and onto the legs. A great tip is to apply a light bronzer to the legs and wear heels to give the appearance of being taller and leggy, again diverting attention.
Colours and fabrics
Choose fabrics that flow quite easily and aren’t restrictive which gives the appearance of a thinner physique.
Always choose colours and styles that flatter the larger figure for example smaller prints rather than larger ones will help you look smaller framed rather than large bold prints the draw attention to your problem areas.
Whatever your age or style there is the perfect evening dress out there for you.

You would be forgiven for questioning the person who would tell you that Sarah Jessica Parker is 45 years old; but she is and she looks amazing for it. Her petite frame, slim build and very athletic arms, give the impression that Sarah is a woman in her early 30′s. She has appeared in many films throughout her career, but is by far, most famous for her role in the hit American TV series, Sex and the City. This series focuses on the lives and loves of four female friends, and is adored by females across the world. The show not only catapulted Sarah’s career, but it also proclaimed her as a style icon, just like her fashionista character in Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw.
Sarah is known for her love of famous designers, and is often seen on the red carpet, showcasing an array of spectacular creations. Her style ranges from sleek, elegant designs, to incredibly ostentatious dresses and accessories. She is known to admire the creations of the late Alexander McQueen, wearing them at both of the Sex and the City premiers. She is also renowned for her love of shoes, particularly her Manolo Blahnik’s, which every woman would love to own, but most can’t afford. The incredible thing about Sarah’s style is that she seems to be able to pull off almost any outfit, even the most bizarre designs, and always looks fantastic. Her style shows off her quirky personality, and enviable individuality. She also has an incredible knack for accessorising her outfits, to make them look even more amazing. Her current style is a far cry from the ‘girl next door’ image she portrayed at the beginning of her career. She has grown and flourished into one of the most stylish celebrities of all time.
Sarah’s hair is long and wavy, and she often experiments with this aspect of her style too. The colour changes from blonde to dark, and sometimes she wears it slick and straight, whereas other times she wears it in its natural waves. She has also been known to wear it in an elegant ‘up do’ for special occasions. Her hairstyle is a big part of what makes her looks so special and is an aspect which gives her a lot of attention on the red carpet.
As she is pretty in a natural way, many women can relate to Sarah and take inspiration from her fabulous style. She takes the lead in couture and vintage fashion, and represents a role model for women of all ages. Her confidence and ease helps her to make any style look special, and she gives the impression of having a personality, which is extremely down to earth. Her evening dresses range from short cocktail styles, to the most incredible floor length, sweeping designs.
In 2004, Sarah’s contribution to the fashion world was recognised when she picked up a well deserved ‘Style Icon Award’ by the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
She may be 65 years old, but Helen Mirren has the type of body that most 20-something ladies would envy. Her glamorous style has been the talk of the media for years, and is one which she has continued to develop, since her career began. Helen continuously turns heads with the elegant outfits she adorns on the red carpet, whether it be long, sophisticated evening dresses or short, classy dresses.
She is renowned in the film industry for being a talented actress, shown through her Oscar award, which she picked up for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth, in the film,The Queen. She has the ability to play in many different roles, giving outstanding performances, but it’s her style we are really interested in, how does she pull off such a fantastic look?
The reason why Helen is such a style icon, is that she wears her style with such ease and confidence. She is clearly, a very attractive lady, but she also has the self assurance to make the most of her look. It is sometimes difficult for older ladies to pull off shorter styles, but she does this by wearing lengths which sit at knee length or just above; avoiding the ‘mutton dressed as lamb’ look. She dresses for her age, but still manages to keep her look up to date and classic, and still manages to turn heads. Some of the styles we have seen her wearing on the red carpet, include a black long length, sleeveless gown, with bow and broach, a gorgeous gold beaded Christian Lacroix gown, and trendy metallic and floral dresses. Her style is elegant and graceful, but still manages to ooze sex appeal.
Helen has previously stated that the key to wearing a style well, is to ensure you feel completely comfortable in it. This is particularly true when attending important events, as it will instantly show to others if you do not feel at ease with your outfit. Helen has previously been named one of the sexiest woman in the world, and has even ranked ahead of supermodel Kate Moss in style polls. No mean feat for someone who is over 20 years her senior. She has also posed nude several times for films, including Calendar Girls, which shows the degree of confidence she possesses. A photograph of Helen in a bikini, taken when she was on holiday in Italy, has become almost as famous as her films. The reason for this, was that she looked incredibly toned with not an ounce of body fat on display, and this has inspired older women to realise that you don’t need to be young to look hot! It has also raised the question around age and beauty, and whether there is really any age when you can’t still be sexy. Helen is one of those women who just seems to get more attractive, the older she gets, without the need for drastic cosmetic surgery, which some celebrities depend on. Lets all hope we age this gracefully….
