Plus Size Party Outfits For Winter

It’s that time of year again, the days are getting shorter, the nights are getting longer, and most places are starting to cool down. While most people are planning on wearing large sweaters and warm, thick socks there are of course those moments during winter where you’ll need to dress up. If you’re looking for some party outfits this list is for you. Below are a few party outfits that will not only keep you looking absolutely adorable but they will also keep you warm all winter long.

Sometimes it can be difficult finding plus size party outfits too, but that isn’t the case here. Everyone, regardless of size, can look stunning. These party outfits were designed with larger sizes in mind, meaning they aren’t just enlarged versions of straight sized clothing. The party outfits below will make sure you’re comfortable while still looking stunning. 

1. Flowy Dress

Some party outfits are clingy and can be uncomfortable, not this one. This black dress is flowy in all the right places but remains true to the natural curves of a person. It’s cinched in at the natural waist and the billowy, chiffon skirt drapes nicely over the rest of your body. This also has a lot of dimension to it, layering thinner material over the top of thicker ones to make it seem flirty without revealing too much. The lace detail and slight thigh slit makes this appropriate for a work holiday party but it could also be worn on a night out. 

2. Bodysuit With Pencil Skirt

The MVP of this outfit is the almost lingerie bodysuit. The juxtaposition of the sexy bodysuit over the more conservative pencil skirt makes this one of those winter party outfits that will surely turn heads. Here it’s all about creating balance. The top is revealing, sexy, and almost over the top. The skirt is what pulls it in and makes it appropriate to wear out of the house. The nice thing about this bodysuit is that being black it’s perfect for all year round, meaning this is a great investment for a piece you can wear time and time again. 

3. Velvet

If winter had an official fabric mascot velvet would be it. This fabric is popular in the winter months not only because it provides slightly more warmth than others but because it’s also just stunning. Velvet is a very versatile material too. You can wear it as a nice, prim and proper formal wear or you can toughen it up with a choker and a leather jacket. The latter is the popular choice here. To get the look below find yourself a beautiful velvet dress preferably in a jewel tone, and pair it with some biker boots, chunky necklaces, and a mauve lip. 

4. Sequin Peplum

Peplum is a naturally flattering cut. It cinches in at the bodies thinnest part and accentuates curves. Find a peplum top in sequins to make it holiday appropriate like the one below. Pair it with a pair of black leggings to ensure it’s the showstopper of your outfit. 

5. Sequin Dress

This is really a simple dress but the sequin detailing is what makes this one of the best party outfits. You’ll want to ensure that you’re comfortable doing whatever celebrations you have planned. If you’re concerned about looking cute and being comfy these are the kind of party outfits for you. 

6. Off The Shoulder Sweater And Black Shorts

There are the more daring party outfits, or the party outfits that are designed for warmer weather like the one below. If you live somewhere that your party outfits need to be on the cooler side this outfit is for you. Find an off the shoulder sweater and tuck it into a pair of high-waisted black shorts. If you still want to make sure you’re kept warm you can always add tights and the thigh high boots below help cover part of your legs as well. 

7. Shiny Shorts

There are some party outfits, like the one below, that are not for the faint at heart. The outfit below is simple enough but you’ll definitely stand out with a pair of shiny, metallic shorts. These scream New Years Eve without being too over the top. You could always pair it with an equally loud, sequin top, or you could of course just wear it with something more toned down like a black sweater with some edgier detailing at the neckline. Be sure to add tights if you live somewhere cold!

8. Metallic Dress

Metallic party outfits are your best friends during the holiday seasons. The one below will have you looking like a disco ball in the best possible way. Be sure to pair it with equally radiant earrings and a highlight that the gods can see. 

9. Velvet Duster

Here’s another great piece made from velvet. This is again another pretty simple outfit that will still make you stand out. Find a velvet duster, like the one below, and pair it with a bodycon dress. That way it will ensure you’re warm and make an otherwise sexy outfit a little more tame. 

10. Wrap Top

This is one of the more daring party outfits but it’s worth the risk. This wrap top is something that is great if you don’t have that many winter clothes but still want to go out during the holidays. Pair it with a pair of high-waisted jeans, leggings, or a skirt to ensure warmth while you’re out. Plus it might be a little sheer so it is the perfect opportunity to show off any cute bralettes you own as well. This is a sexy outfit that seems effortless. 

11. Little Red Dress

If you’re wanting something that is definitely meant to be worn out and will catch someone’s eye you’ll want to wear a little red dress. The sister to the little black dress this one will surely get some heads turned. It really doesn’t matter what cut or style you find your dress in, the one below has a deep cut but you could always find something not as sexy. Regardless of the style the little red dress will look amazing on anyone.
