Along with the many dresses and skirts you can buy at Macy's, you can also purchase plus size cocktail dresses there. I looked online at their site, and the prices seem reasonable by their standards.
Plus-sized cocktail dresses can be as inexpensive as a few dollars at a thrift or second-hand store to thousands of dollars at a designer boutique. In general, you might pay a couple hundred dollars for a suitable cocktail dress.
Often the clothing web sites you already use have plus sizes available, which can be found inside the cocktail dress size drop-down box, or by searching the category Plus Size, depending on the web site. However, whole sites are dedicated just to plus size cocktail dresses, or to plus size clothing. Sites such as Fashion Bug, Avenue and Lane Bryant all feature plus size cocktail dresses. Other sites are for the niche shopper, looking solely for plus size cocktail dresses. Some of those sites are Figuresque, Alight, and Torrid.
Macy's has a great selection of plus sized cocktail dresses. You can look through their in-store selection or browse their pages of dresses online. They also have a great return policy, if needed.
There are some great online stores that carry plus size cocktail dresses. Try Kiyonna, which is available at http://www.kiyonna.com/plus-size-clothing/Cocktail.html. You can also try browsing Avenue's online collection, which is available here: http://www.avenue.com/womens/clothing/plus-size-cocktail-dress.
Plus size cocktail dresses are typically sizes 18 and above. Some stores start at 16 while others go up to size 22. Generally speaking though, a good rule of thumb is 18.
A search of LaneBryant.com comes up with two matches for party dresses. a satin cocktail dress and a sleeveless black velvet party dress. Both are available in plus sizes. Here's the link to look at them http://www.lanebryant.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&x=0&y=0&keyword=cocktail+dresses.
Unfortunately "off the rack" stores generally don't carry plus size dresses like this, although if you look for a plus size store that specializes in larger clothing you can find something better tailored to your shape/figure.
Nordstrom, with many locations including California, is a great place to find dresses for any occassion. They have dresses ranging from eving wear, to weddings, to cocktail attire. And, sizes range from junior to plus size depending on the style.
Wow, there are many good stores for this! A few of them are JCPenney, Sears, Wal-mart, Cato, Target, Maurices, SimplyBe, Igigi, Zappos, Jessica London, Lane Bryant, and Avenue. one of my fav stores-Globetrendy, it offers customize service, :) and it's free :D
One can purchase plus size rights at a discounted price at some of the cocktail dresses stores. Some of the websites one can buy them are; onestopplus and apparelshowroom.
