There are so many things about this retro ruffled dress from Torrid that makes it a plus sized pick. First of all, it is super trendy and stylish. Belted/tie waist button down dresses are making a comeback this year. This dress also has a classic retro black, white and red checkered pattern. Patterns like this are flattering on most plus sized women because they help create a visual distraction. It is finished off with a cute puffed sleeve and a ruffle trim on the sleeve and hem.
