Plus-Size Red Dresses for Valentine's Day Under $60

Lori May
Sorting through the abundance of plus-size red dresses for Valentine's Day can be a chore for any curvy gal, especially if you're trying to make a budget-friendly choice under $60. Fortunately, five stellar vendors in plus size fashion have plenty great red dresses available online in a variety of materials, styles and silhouettes. The following five examples are figure flattering and reasonably priced, which will allow you to splurge on a dinner date or fresh flowers instead of spending your whole budget on your new Valentine's Day dress!

Natalie Wrap Dress by Avenue - Accentuate the shape of your waist with this faux wrap dress, which ties at the front waist to create a lovely hourglass effect. The stretch knit material is forgiving, and the calf-length hemline will elongate your figure while drawing attention away from potential problem areas. The V-neckline is feminine and fashionable, and the ¾ sleeves make this red dress suitable for both chilly and mild Valentine's Days. This plus size red dress is available online for $34.99, and comes in sizes 14/16-30/32.

Tiered Skirt Dress by Fashion Bug - Consider indulging yourself in a splash of red this Valentine's Day with this charming, draping tank dress. The tiered skirt is flattering and slenderizing through the hips and the square neckline is modest yet appealing. Pair with sparkling heels, a sophisticated string of pearls, or lace gloves for a vintage twist. This plus size red dress is available online for $39.99, and comes in sizes 0X-3X.

Red Ruffle Front Halter Dress by Torrid - Make a statement that curvy is beautiful with this bold, red polyester dress. The ruffle front design creates a slimming, vertical line along the bust, waist and hips, and the high hemline is dangerously flirty. The halter neckline is eye-catching and feminine; add a velvet choker or sparkling pendant to draw the eye down the ruffled front. This Valentine's Day red dress is available online for $58.00, and comes in plus sizes 0-4.

Red Cocktail Dress with Side Drape by Roaman's - Rhinestone accents gives this red dress an added touch of intrigue, and the flirty Grecian wrap style is flirty and festive. The shirred bodice and gathered waist are flattering for a curvy figure, and the cascading drape skirt gives slenderizing movement to the cocktail dress. Pair with minimal jewelry to further emphasize the rhinestone accents, and a sparkling pair of heels to complete this romantic look. This Valentine's Day red dress is available online for $59.99, and comes in sizes 16W-34W.

Knit Dress with Flutter-Sleeves by Jessica London - This knit dress is a flattering plus size take on the popular sweater dress, featuring fluttering batwing-style sleeves and plenty of room to move. The V-neck lends a classic Romanic touch, and the knee-length hemline pairs perfectly with either cut heels or a pair of killer calf-high boots. To further emphasize your curvy figure, simply add your favorite belt to encircle your natural waist rather than along the hips; solid hues or rhinestone accents in your belt would add extra snap to this look. This plus size red dress is available online for $29.99, and comes in sizes 18-20.
