I can't help you with sarongs, as I'm not really a beach fan, sorry.
But just for information, as it can be hard to find things on MSE, if you want to search a thread you can click on the link 'search this thread', just above the first post on each thread.

Do you know anyone with an overlocker? Sarongs would be a piece of cake to make with an overlocker, and you could choose your own fabric.

Hi my fellow loverlies.. Not been on a while but perusing the online shops came across some real bargains for those who are size 30,32,34 and 36. Enjoy x http://www.curvety.com/S/All_Accessories_Sale_Dresses-(63).aspx

Adore Igigi, so glam! Shame they are 30+, or I'd definitely order one. I'm tempted by Igigi's US site, but the customs + vat has put me off so far.

Re Sarongs - not sure how practical this is, but would a Sari double as a Sarong? I found some lovely Sari's in a charity shop a couple of years ago.

Any thoughts on plus size exercise wear. Honestly, they're always telling people to exercise more, but if you're above a size 18...

I get my swimsuits from Lands End - they're brilliant, do larger sizes, and for a daily swimmer they last for ages. And when they say tugless, they mean it!

But I need tracksuit bottoms that are loose (yoga style) in a size 20, long length. M and S don't have a proper drawstring waist - and my waist is an 18, I just like them looser at the hips.

And I need a sports style top, preferably a simple t-shirt, in moisture wicking fabric (I'm afraid I sweat rather than glow!), in a 22-24, which is longer length - because I'm tall.

It is proving a fruitless search. Any thoughts?

Hiya, i am also needing workout clothes, i do zumba twice a week and kickboxing once a week, while reading Evolve magazine an online plus size magazine they tweeted about a company called state of mind active, they look expensive but you could give them a try, looking is free lol

i havent bought anything from them yet, need some money first! lol if you buy anything let me know what the quality is like! i am stuck in a pair of xxl nike mens bottoms and they are falling off me,but i am too scared to go and try a mens xl for fear it will be too tight, how embARRASSING.

didnt know ax paris did plus size, im excited until i saw about postage.

anyone know where i can get a plus size varsity jacket? im dying for one lol.

If you have a debenham near you that stocks regatta, & you don't mind mens, tee shirts are often about £4 and wick pretty well.

Have you thought about a t-shirt dress style rather than a t-shirt or looking in dance wear ranges. Nike and Adidas tend to make these and the dance wear ranges tend to be big and baggy so you could get away with a smaller size.

Stumbled across Evans busty fitted shirt but none of my local stores have my size and the website stops at 20.

Any ideas where I can get something similar?

Thanks
