The little black dress or “LBD” is a versatile workhorse that is a staple in every woman’s wardrobe. I say “versatile workhorse” because your go-to plus size LBD should work hard for you when you need it. It should be comfortable enough to wear for long stretches of time, i.e. you’re hosting a holiday party and can’t be worried that your dress keeps falling down while you’re trying to prep hor d’oeuvres. It should be a flattering cut, i.e. you can wear a “real” bra, you don’t need to double up your Spanx to squeeze into it, and you feel like a powerful goddess with hips that don’t lie when you slip it on. And lastly, it should be suitable (when styled) for a multitude of occasions and events, i.e. you can wear it for a date night, a casual party, a cocktail party, and even daytime events. Work. Horse.
If you are need of the perfect plus size LBD, might I recommend this Jersey Sash Dress by Anna Scholz. Aside from meeting all of the criteria above, it is a beautifully and thoughtfully designed dress. It features a v-neck, which is universally flattering, with just the perfect amount of coverage to be “appropriate,” yet sexy. With a wrap-front, it flatters curves and accentuates [or creates the illusion of] a waist. It falls to just below the knee, adding sophistication and suitability for all ages and occasions. Dare I say, this dress covers you enough to be considered “modest,” but emphasizes your curves enough to be “covertly salacious.” Anna says, “Many women have told us that they can’t believe how sexy they look the minute they try this dress on. It is a transformative experience.” Yasss!
The looks below are just two ideas for how to style this amazing LBD, but the possiblities are endless…

Plus Size LBD Outfit – Rocker Chic
This first plus size LBD outfit is for those who like a little edge. Add a genuine leather red biker jacket to really make a statement. By the way, this jacket also comes in black. And both feature intricate embroidery on the sleeves for a level of luxury that you just don’t see available in plus sizes. Mix with a leopard clutch and peep-toe bootie for the ultimate “rocker chic” look.
