Warmer weather is on the horizon, and the sun is popping out from the clouds a bit more. With these signs, it’s clear that Easter is on the way. The spring holiday is known for inspiring people to wear pastels, ruffles, and flowy fabrics, and if you haven’t already gotten your Easter dress, now is the time to shop.

But if you’re not into the usual floral everything you find during spring, don’t worry. Not everything is floral (but if you want it to be, that’s okay, too!). There are plus size Easter dresses of all styles, and we’ve found some great options for you to wear while kicking off spring.
