By: Murissa Barrington

After what felt like the longest winter ever, spring is finally here. That also means that it’s unofficially wedding season, brunch season and, depending on the forecast, patio season. No matter what the occasion, a spring dress that flatters your curves in an eye-catching colour is always a foolproof pick. We’ve rounded up 25 plus-size spring dresses that you’ll want to wear everywhere you go.
