Large Plus Size Clothing

millsymuttleylaugh

I've bought two tops from Yours Clothing. I generally begrudge paying delivery (it doesn't fit in with my bargaining ethic) but they were reasonably priced tops anyway on the first one I had a £2 off code and on the 2nd I've had a 10% off code.

I've been to the shop in Retford, was basically expecting similar to whats online, but found it quite disappointing, it may not be free returns but theres definately more variety online.

Both tops I've bought have been of really good quality and they fit great. I ordered a top in a size 18 as it was the only size they had left (I'm between 18 & 20, generally a 20) and was certain that when it arrived it wouldn't fit, I think I almost willed it not to fit, but it arrived this morning and it fits lovely, not tight at all, so the sizes are also generous.

I'd recommend yours clothing, they deliver reasonably quickly, the clothes are good, the prices are cheap and you can generally pick up a discount code and save yourself a few pounds.

I can't comment on returns as I've not returned nothing yet.

Also for plus size I've recently found that Peacocks are doing some nice things in bigger sizes, I think the biggest I've seen is 24, but its not a special plus size range it is just the normal fashions up to that size which I think is great.

And finally, for plus size men, in Doncaster there is a place called Big Fellas, they sell a variety of mens clothes up to 8xl, you can buy in person, over the phone or via their website

Hope this is useful to someone

I don't think anyone's mentioned Planet yet - they go from 6-20 but they size up so in reality its up to size 22.

They have great sales - I got a gorgeous pair of silk trousers for £15 and a lovely red tunic for about £13. It was 20% off everything that already had 70% off instore:D

There is a wonderful shop in the Hackney area of London. Sizes are stocked way up to the very largest, higher than clothes size 32. Extremely inexpensive and very up-to-date styles.

It is really worth a look if you can get there easily.
The shop is called

Hi all, I have not been on for a while for many reasons. I too have just discovered the Asos good news, hopefully this will be a popular range(Curve) and it will build the collection, they have some good basics as well as bang on trend outfits. In response to the lady wanting Maternity plus sizes I remember getting a few bits from Littlewoods and Next, so have a quick look and congratulations x Hi Terra ferma I am still working on something for us juicy lucys, hence not been on, I will let you know soon as ready, I am soooooooo excited!

Just wanted to thank everybody. This is the fabbest thread ever!

I was feeling a bit scruffy and slobby -and bored witless of my current wardrobe which seems to be all jumpers and jeans. I nipped over to the Anne Harvey sale at H of F that I read about on here and got a waterfall cardigan, a jacket, and two tops for £48 inc postage. I could have bought more but £50 seemed like reasonable limit to set myself.

I am made up! :j

I forgot to say that my ideal top would be empire line, no ties, not too low cut, three quarter sleeves or full length and 31 inches long which hits me just at the top of my thigh and safely under my tummy. Stretch fabric, not too thick and not too thin, and I hate pastel colours and foiled placement prints.

Most of my wardrobe comes from Tailissime at La Redoute, Next and Simply Be. I haven't bought anything from Evans for years but I still pop in there once or twice a month just in case. Eve jeans from Simply Be solved the gaping back problem for me, but H&M ones used to work too. Have added Yours to my faves for future reference.

A massive thank you again. I'm so grateful. I might actually go into Bon Marche next time I'm walking past.

I've seen a few organic bits and bobs at La Redoute but it won't let me post links.
