15 Plus-Size Holiday Dresses for Every Curvy Mom

Ask any mama if she loves the holidays and she’s bound to give a complicated answer. On one hand, the family togetherness, the tender moments, the joy of seeing the kids’ faces light up as presents are all highlights of the season. On the other, running around like a lunatic to make all of the magic happen – not so much. One thing is for sure this time of year: Moms always put themselves last on their lists of people to worry about. And when the holiday office party or the big dinner with the in-laws actually sneaks up on them, moms will wish they bumped a holiday outfit for themselves higher on that list.

Although it is true that every mom feels the pressure around the holidays, when it comes to shopping for a fabulous holiday outfit, plus-size moms have it a little tougher. In-store options can be super limited and often are so basic it’s not even worth getting festive. But plus-size moms, have no fear! In the world of online shopping, the options are nearly endless.

Turning to the Internet, plus-size moms are sure to not only find something that suits their style but also accommodates their shape and size. From flared-out flowy frocks to skin-tight cocktail dresses, there are options for every preference and type of event.

To help make finding these dresses even easier, we rounded up a variety of dresses for plus-size moms to choose from. Whether she’s looking for a quirky festive dress or a gorgeous holiday ballgown, we’ve got the outfit for her.
