I don’t know if you can relate, but when I walk into a room, I want everyone to stare (in, like, a good way, and not in a way that means I have toilet paper stuck to the bottom of my shoe). It doesn’t always happen for me—OK, it’s happened maybe once—but that’s mostly because I have a limited number of going out or party clothes. But, recently, I have noticed a plethora of incredibly trendy plus-size cocktail dresses just begging to come home with me. Whether you’re like me and need to stock up on some event-worthy outfits, or you just love a good cocktail dress (You know who you are.), this shopping guide is about to be your saving grace.

Maxi, midi, mini—whatever your jam, cute plus-size cocktail dresses are the solution to every party wardrobe crisis. Need something work-friendly? There’s a cocktail dress for that. Need something sexy? I’ve got a cocktail dress for that. Need something for that event where you’re not sure how dressed up you should be? Cocktail. Dress. For. That.
