Finding the Perfect Plus Size Occasion Dress with Scarlett & Jo
Party season is on the horizon again, and we believe no one should have to miss out on a gorgeous occasion dress. No matter what your shape or size, the perfect one is out there for you, and thanks to retailers like Scarlett & Jo, those who have a fuller figure are now well catered for. This particular company take inspiration from vintage trends to create gorgeous designs that compliment curves. So, we’ve taken a look at some current autumn and winter trends to see which dresses fit the bill…
Bold Florals
This is going to be one of the most popular trends of the season, but we don’t mean any old floral prints. Glamour Magazine described them as ‘unapologetic’ and we agree – think dark backgrounds with bold flowers and then combine this with striking cuts and shaping. Shopping with our Scarlett & Jo voucher codes gives you heaps of dresses to choose from that match this description, including midi dresses, maxi dresses and pencil dresses. But our absolute favourite at the moment is the stunning Kemisha Sweetheart 2 in 1 Dress with Pockets. The neckline is flattering for those with a bigger bust, and their popular 2 in 1 dress style flatters and emphasises your curves. But when it comes to those bold florals, with think you’ll agree the skirt design fits the bill perfectly. The very best thing about this particular dress? It’s currently on sale – was £65, now £52.
Perfect Purple
It’s fair to say that when it comes to clothing, purple hasn’t always been everyone’s favourite. Whereas some colours never go out of fashion, purple has always been very much subject to trends. But thankfully this season, it is very much in. However, you can forget your summery lilacs and pastels and now fully appreciate a more regal shade of purple - just like with the floral trends, this is all about being bold with your purple garments and accessories. But today we’re all about the vintage look dresses, and Scarlett & Jo don’t let us down with their Twist Skirt Bodycon Dress (was £60, now £48). This is THE dress to order if you’re after the perfect hourglass figure and again, the sweetheart neckline is another flattering feature.
Seasonal Sparkle
We can’t talk about autumn and winter dress trends without talking about a bit of sparkle and embellishment, right? They are probably some of the most popular extras we look for in a party dress and thankfully all that sort of thing is still very much on trend this year. One of the best things about this trend is that it doesn’t really matter how overboard you go on the sparkle, because it is party season after all. However, Scarlett & Jo have an excellent option if you don’t want to go too full-on. Their Sophia Black ‘Pearl’ Skirt Fairytale Dress is a new arrival currently reduced from £95 to £76. As you can see, it has beautiful pearl embellishment on the floaty skirt and is complete with their trademark flattering waistband.
All the dresses we’ve selected are currently reduced on their site, but if you prefer one that isn’t on sale, our voucher codes could also get you money off full priced items.
