LBB Picks 7 Brands You Can Score Plus-Size Wedding Wear From

A Jaipur based brand, Divena is all about ethnic prints, cuts, and silhouettes that cater to the modern Indian woman. Known for their motifs, block print designs, and use of gota, you'll find everything from suits, salwars, ethnic dresses, to lehengas. Prices start at a modest INR 700 and go up to INR 5,000 which is great for light festive wear with bandhani and hand painted organza suits making big impressions. The sizes easily go up to a 7XL which we think is pretty great. For a puja or family re-union, we have our eyes on this hand painted anarkali suit. 

Size: Up to 7XL

Pro Tip: If you're on the look out for anarkalis, the check this out. 

Plus-size brides-to-be, look to Mirraw for traditional outfits that you can wear for the smaller functions. The website stocks up on plus-size embroidered blouses, skirts, and ethnic sets. The choices and styles are several with the sizes going up to 5XL. You can also put together an outfit by mixing and matching skirts and tops. Prices are pretty affordable too, great if you're looking to cut down expenditure on clothing for smaller functions. However, if you aren't eyeing anything that's mainstream then you may want to give this brand a miss. 

Price: Up to 5XL

Style has no size at Meera's Plus Size Store that stocks up on everything from XS to 10XL. We were even more elated with their extensive ethnic collection especially when it came to wedding wear. The anarkalis, sharara, and lehenga sets are not too over the top and fit the bill when it comes to dolling up for sangeets or mehendis. For a mehendi we'd pick the emerald green sequin sharara set with a heavy flare 3-tier sharara and a beautiful net dupatta with borders and tassels. Other than that, all their clothes can be customised too. The festive and wedding collection starts INR 1,450 onward.

Sizes: XS to 10XL

This e-store has a plus-size section that boasts of traditional wear across categories—lehenga cholis, anarkali suits, ready to wear attire, all in sizes up to 5XL. Their styles are very Bollywood-esque and fall under a budget of INR 20,000 which is rather affordable. On Andaaz's website you can also opt for custom tailoring options (prices start at INR 1,500). Options inclusive of stitching or without are available too.

Sizes: Up to 5XL

Aachho is a homegrown brand that is acing contemporary designs on traditional silhouettes. They play around with hand block and hand painted design sensibilities while they're best known for their classic anarkalis. And as we know, anarkalis are a staple during the festivities because they are not only easy to wear, but breezy and flowy and undoubtedly look great on all body types. When it comes to size, the brand goes up to a size 5XL. For the festivities, we have our hearts set on this beige embroidered chikankari kurta set. 

Even though sizes at Gillori only go up to 4XL, we had to mention them for their easy-on-the-eyes, appropriate daily and light festive wear with lots of silk, hand block, gota-patti, and embroidery work. The prices are affordable starting at INR 1,300 upwards and going up to INR 8,000 (post discount) which is a pure chanderi bota jacket ethnic dress that will have you sorted if you're attending a small scale function and want to wear something nice but not go all out. Over all it is not only a plus size inclusive brand, but also a wholesome all size inclusive brand. 

Sizes: Up to 4XL

Thread And Button is a treat for people who love the leheriya trend, indo-fusion ethnic wear, and basically anything traditional on modern silhouettes. The sizes go up to a 5XL which we think isn't exceptional, but it is still good enough. What's note worthy of this brand is that they also do kids festive and ethnic wear which is adorable, on trend, and starts with ages 12-14 months. For a low-key cocktail or card party, we choose this blue chiffon leheriya one shoulder Indo-Fusion suit. 

Size: Up to 5XL
