Plus Size Holiday Gowns

Holiday party season shouldn't come with a side of dress stress. You want a gown that fits, looks elevated and lets you enjoy the night, in any size.

Faviana's Spring 2027 collection includes extended sizes, 18E–24E, across a wide range of long styles. These four are party-ready, with shine, structure and colors that suit December.

What to look for in a plus size holiday gown

• Structure where you want it. Corset bodices and boning give shape and support through a long evening.

• Stretch you can feel. Stretch satin and mesh make sitting, dancing and hugging easier.

• Shine, placed well. Beading and sequins catch the light. Look at where they sit, because it changes the line of the dress.

• A true extended size run. Styles designated with an "E" are made in an extended range, not scaled up from a smaller pattern.

Style 11605: beaded corset, sheer mesh sides

Style 11605 is a stretch satin gown with an intricately beaded corset and sheer mesh side panels, plus a lace-up back for a custom fit. It comes in cotton candy pink, light yellow, red and royal, sizes 00–16 and 18E–24E. For a holiday party, red or royal is the pick.

Style 11607: pointed corset, sequin beading

Style 11607 pairs a pointed strapless corset with light-catching sequin beading and sleek satin. It comes in cherry, dark emerald, gold and ink blue, sizes 00–16 and 18E–24E. Dark emerald and gold are the two shades that say "holiday" without trying.

“A good party dress doesn't ask you to change. It just shows up with you.”

Style 11616: sparkle across a strapless line

Style 11616 is a tulle and appliqué gown with sweeping beaded accents across a sleek strapless silhouette and a lace-up back. It comes in black, light pink and red, sizes 00–16 and 18E–24E. Black is the elegant answer. Red is the one people remember.

Style 11653: mesh, bodycon, easy to wear

Style 11653 has a mesh V-neck corset top that shapes a bodycon silhouette, with a wrapover skirt. It comes in bright raspberry, light blue and royal, sizes 00–16 and 18E–24E. Mesh has stretch, so it's easy to move in.

Fit tips before the party

• Try it on with the shoes and undergarments you'll wear.

• Sit, lift your arms and walk a full lap before you decide.

• Order early. December is busy for alterations.

• Check the size chart for each style, since fit varies by silhouette.

The finishing touch

The last step is a spritz of Celebrate Yourself, a citrus floral with notes of pomelo, jasmine and sandalwood. Moisturise first, spray at the collarbone and behind the ears, and let it dry without rubbing.
