Hi Bees-

I need help!  I love the girls in my wedding party, they are all bigger girls and trying on dresses is agonizing.  Nothing in the stores fit and it is so hard to tell what they would look like in their size.  One is also very short proportioned and that adds another difficulty.

Do you have any suggestions?  Are there even such a thing as petite Bridesmaid or Best Man dresses?  Having SUCH a hard time.  Thought I found a dress I loved and would look good but…it didn’t!

Time is running out…now taking any and all suggestions

Thanks ladies!

What about just picking a color and letting them pick the style of dress that best suits them.  Some of them may already have a dress style that they really like and then can look for that style in your color.

strapless with a modified sweet heart neckline look great on bigger girls. i looked at ball gown type dresses and chose love by enzoani style c4. i have skinny to bigger girls and tight on top with a flowy botton looks great. and everyone looks great in dark purple
