9 Plus-Size Sweater Dresses That’ll Keep You Warm And Chic Till Spring

Wearing dresses in the winter can be tricky — especially when your measurements don’t fit into “standard” sizing ranges. Between the harsh elements and the lack of options, it ends up being a lot easier to throw on a pair of jeans rather than hunting down the perfect not-too-warm, not-too-bulky but still stylish dress option. Fortunately, more and more plus-size winterwear options have been popping up and plus-size sweater dresses are no exception.

Sweater dresses are more than just easy to throw on cold weather frocks — they actually do what their name implies, and act as the full-body warmers we’ve always dreamed of.

Ahead, we’ve rounded up 9 plus-size sweater dresses that are sure to keep you nice and warm all season long.
