There’s no better time than now to buy a plus-size prom dress. This season’s selections feature a variety of captivating colors in bold, beautiful styles designed to flatter the more curvaceous figure. The many available colors make choosing just the right plus-size prom dress or gown a high-fashion adventure. Purples such as Regency, Wine, and Lapis, reds such as Ruby or Apple, and blues such as Horizon and Blue Velvet are sure to make any woman feel like the prom queen.

A soft jersey gown in Sky, with lovely ruched waist and surplice bodice, accentuates the beauty of the fuller figure. The metallic silver beadwork adorning its narrow straps and empire waistline adds a quiet elegance to this graceful style. For a cute short style, the bold red satin strapless dress with side shirring and sophisticated diagonal layered skirt is sure to catch your escort’s eye. Convenient side zipper makes this style eminently wearable.

An especially elegant strapless satin ball gown with matching beading boasts a striking side split, which opens to reveal a lovely organza inset. Matching organza wrap completes this attractive style, providing a stunning look in sangria. The versatile A-line skirt flowing from the natural waistline of this beauty provides universal appeal, while the straight-across strapless bodice minimizes the more ample bust line.

Another short style that’s sure to attract plenty of positive attention from the guys is the flirty, mesh-ruffle trimmed jersey dress in basic black with satin ribbon tie at the natural waist. Its classic, straight-across bodice with barely-there spaghetti straps downplays the fuller figure while providing an enticing look.

This versatile dress may be worn with dazzling silver jewelry or glittering diamonds for high glamour, or for a more playful, vivacious look, the creative young woman may experiment with brightly colored jewelry and accessories to liven it up. This unique style will be one you’ll want to wear again and again, for a dinner out or a night on the town, long after prom night ends.

Yet another short style that’s sure to catch his eye is a delightfully iridescent purple taffeta beauty. This item’s unique skirt style sports a charming combination of soft, wide, curvy pleats and a wavy, ruffled hem designed for a slimming effect that highlights your natural curves. Cute, matching pleated ruffles adorn the attractive surplice bodice, super-wide waistband, and narrow hem, completing the look that will make you irresistible.

If you like flowers, you’ll adore the White and Royal spaghetti-strap ball gown with form-fitting bodice and ample skirt. This white organza beauty sports a royal blue beaded and embroidered floral vine design that radiates from bust line to waistline and beyond, for an especially charming look.

The flowing skirt also features individual blue flowers sprinkled about like blossoms floating on a sea of white. Royal blue edging trims the straight-cut bodice, completing the fresh, airy, flower-meadow look and feel of this delightful gown.

For a truly attractive silhouette, you’ll love the strapless, A-line chiffon prom gown. Its shiny charmeuse waistband, lovely pleated bodice, and graceful draped skirt combine to produce a stunning look that accentuates your femininity by creating a visually pleasing hourglass figure.

This glamorous style comes in a wide range of exciting colors that will make you look like a million dollars when you step out onto the dance floor. Some fun colors that are available in this design are Pistachio, Guava, Watermelon, Saffron, Clover, Tangerine, and Champagne.

The highly fashionable sleeveless short dress with black-and-white zebra print skirt, black shirred bodice, and contrasting Fuchsia sash, puts color to work to your best advantage. Detailed with ruching and sporting a matching flower in front and bow in back, the striking sash provides just the right color accent to liven up the style.

Another stylish multi-color prom dress for those who love a bold geometric pattern is the floor-length chiffon gown with beaded empire waist, black halter top with sensuously plunging neckline, and gracefully flowing geometric-patterned skirt. Colors represented in this stand-out design range from creams, taupes, and browns to graduated shades of orange, yellow-green, and blue.

One way you can create an exciting array of color magic that will make you stand out from the crowd on prom night is to choose from among plus-size prom dresses that feature contrasting bodice, skirt, and waistband colors. Whether the dresses you browse create contrast between solid colors or multi-colored patterns—or both—you’ll find that combining various hues when developing your own unique look will add a chic new dimension to your prom-dress shopping.

Making color work for you when choosing your plus-size prom dress will add to the thrill of that special night. As you experiment with different shades, note which ones bring out your natural coloring, putting a glow in your cheeks and adding to your natural beauty. These are the ones you’ll want to choose among to find the dress that will make you feel like the belle of the ball on prom night.
