Lulus Carries Plus-Size Dresses & These 8 Are The Best

Over the past year, we've been noticing you noticing Lulus. According to our anonymous shopping data, our readers have quite the appetite for the California-based retailer's selection of affordable, stylish dresses. We went digging to learn more and found its surprising extended-size offerings. After poking around, we uncovered a handful of dresses ranging from XXS-3X in varying cuts and styles with extensive reviewer feedback.

We know how difficult it can be for plus-size folks to find quality retailers who do a range of sizes well, so we sorted out the best Lulus' plus-size dresses to help you make a more confident decision. We found options fit for almost any occasion: a casual but cute first date dress, an eye-catching wedding guest dress, an elegant wedding gown (!), and a very sparkly party dress. We hope the brand continues to expand upon its size-inclusive range — but, until then, we'll be keeping you in the know on all of Lulus' best plus-size dresses on offer.


At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29

Sizes Available: XXS-3X

What They're Saying

"I bought this dress to wear to a wedding. I ordered a 3x based on the size chart, and it was a little big but not too noticeable. Next time, I would buy a size down. It's also longer than the picture, which was a good thing because I'm tall and always have a hard time with short dresses." – Taylor R., Size 3X

Lulus Taliana White Lace Button Back Maxi Dress

Best Plus-Size Dress For Intimate Wedding Ceremonies

Sizes Available: XXS-3X

Are you eloping, tying the knot at your local courthouse, or getting hitched in the backyard of your childhood home? Then this might be the dress for you. This elegant white maxi is designed to be wedding-ready right out of the box with adjustable straps and stretch fabric. A lace panel in the back is a sweet addition to the otherwise minimalist style. Just note one taller reviewer wrote that to have some more lace added to make it floor-length on her 6'1" frame.


What They're Saying

"I wish I could post a picture, but I didn't get a good photo. The dress is BEAUTIFUL, the back detail is gorgeous and looks so elegant. The only caveat is that the dress itself is about 3 - 5 inches too short barefooted. I have an AWESOME seamstress who has taken the job of adding a few extra inches of lace to the bottom of the dress, so the purchase isn't a complete loss. If under 6'1, I definitely think it'll be perfect, but as a 6'1 curvy gal I needed the help with the extra inches." – Francia P., Size 3X

Lulus Tale to Tell Blue and Ivory Embroidered Shift Dress

Best Plus-Size Dress For Tea Party

Sizes Available: XS-3X

Do you have a garden party coming up? Sport this dress with your pinkies out while sipping on the hot tea — and spilling some (figuratively). It's a shift dress silhouette, which means it's a teeny bit boxier around the waist area and won't hug your middle, but some well-placed darts still give it shape.


What They're Saying

"I often find cute Lulus clothes but then extended sizes aren't available, so I can't order. This was the first dress that I finally liked that I saw that's 1X, so I was eager to order it! It fits perfectly and is so cute! Definitely will keep my eyes peeled as they continue to add extended size options!" – Christine W. , Size 1X

Lulus Eternal Bond White Satin Ruffled Flutter Sleeve Maxi Dress

Best Plus-Size Bride Wedding Rehearsal Dress

Sizes Available: XXS-2X

This dress is ethereal and flowy, and white — which is to say, exactly what everyone wants in a rehearsal dinner get-up. Some plus-size reviewers cautioned that the top of the frock can be loose and on the larger side near the shoulder area, but the weight of the fabric and the design are both on point.


What They're Saying

"I used this as my rehearsal dinner dress and everything fits well just a teeny bit large on the shoulders and long but I wore heels and just let the dress drag like a train. Everyone loved the dress and got so many compliments. I looked good at all angles, the fabric is soft and extremely comfortable. Love this!"–Sarah V, Size 1X
