Designer Wedding Gowns for the Curvy Bride
AB16+ is our range of designer plus size curvy wedding dresses, available in New Zealand exclusively from Astra Bridal. They are ideal for any woman who wears a size 18 or over. We carry samples of a large range in a size 16 or bigger, available to try in Astra Bridal salons. We can order MANY of our gowns up to a size 32.
Our range of Curvy wedding dresses in larger sizes, to suit all New Zealand women, is something we pride ourselves on. If it's on this site - even it's been photographed on a slim model - we have it in a larger size.
