Large Plus Size Clothing

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone has used asos curve and ax paris curve, are the sizes true to size or are they neat and are you better ordering a size up. And are they both reliable companies to order from. The dresses on these site are lovely and its great to see that we larger ladies are getting more fashionable clothes. lm sick of the fuddy duddy crap that we are expected to wear.

Hi ginger tony. I got an amazing coat from ASOS Curve two weeks ago and it is one of the best things I have ever bought. I ordered a size up for roominess in the coat and I was surprised by how well it fits. HTH.

I've just ordered a top from ASOS Curve, I've ordered a 22 (I'm between a 20-22) so hopefully it will be ok. They have some amazingly gorgeous stuff on there...

Terra It is lol.

It came via click and collect so no delivery charge, I ordered a 20 but was worried about the arms and my bingo wings, but it is perfect and very roomy for the size, I am assuming very stuff comes up large.

Bit suprised that very put the prices up and down though, apparently It's the norm for them, glad I got it at the cheaper price.

Must be the time of year to buy new coats. I bought two from Bargain Crazy a few days ago. They were delivered earlier & I'm very happy with them. I ordered a 24 in both as I'm losing weight and I've got coats to get me through this winter & summer. Hoping my mum will pay for one as a Christmas 2013 present and the other one I'll buy myself(unless hubby wants to buy it for my birthday...:D
One was £17.99 and is a casual short-ish white jacket. The other is a proper 'grown up' smart coat. Camel coloured, 70s style with a belt and was £22.99 (had an extra 24% discount on for 24 hours, which covered p+p and then some). Both are a bit on the snug side, although they do zip/button up, but will fit much nicer once my upper arms are more toned and my belly has shrunk a bit!

My top from ASOS came and its fab it looks pretty big though - I'm a 20-22 and ordered a 22 as I like my tops slightly baggy but it looks big! Not a problem really though. I was impressed with the experience of buying from them - free delivery, and I ordered it late Thursday night, I got an email on Saturday to say it had been dispatched and it arrived Monday
Another moan about Evans sizing... I bought a lurvely blue checked shirt in their sale in the Leicester store. Now, it was labelled as a 26 but my first thought is it looked way too small to be a 26. I didnt try it but I thought if it's a little big that's ok, I prefer to wear a t-shirt beneath my shirts so not a problem.
I bought a pair of their dark blue size 24 straight-leg jeans with it, normally a good fit.
There was absolutely no way on God's green earth that shirt was a 26 - it was a little big on the shoulders (but I have tiny, narrow shoulders anyway) but it was a lovely fit elsewhere. And like i say, I'm a 20-22 if I want the correct fit, at the most a 24 if I want it baggy. And the jeans were also on the big side - I stupidly put them on without a belt, assuming they'd fit as all the other pairs I have in the exact same style do, but noooo. I spent the day hiking them up... really good way to make a good impression at the open day of my prospective uni!!

I bought some yoga pant-style trackie bottoms in Store 21 in a size 24 - they were so big it was comical :rotfl: I have to tuck my t-shirt in to keep them up!!! (again though I prefer my tracksuits baggy and the hoodie I bought to go with them covers the waist so they do look ok) I bought some leggings in M&S and they are a 20 and fit :eek: it just goes to show how mad the sizing is in different shops..!!
