    wow that was quick LOL hope u find them in store and they r a nice fit let us know how u get on...

    I managed to find a couple of styles in my size and bought a pair of these. They are quite thin though - I'm not sure I'll be warm enough in skating classes where I'll be standing around a lot but we will see. My current joggers are almost falling off me so if they are too thin for skating they'll still get used doing my pilates and workout DVDs!

    Thanks again!

    i would just like to say i am not the seller ms_enterprises on ebay
    i purchased some tom hagan shirts sized 4xl off them and just thought i would let people know how happy i am with the product and the price i paid .
    :D

    I'm afraid when I see someone who joins MSE just to post about a specific company I don't trust them.
    We get this all the time, then people disappear never to be seen again....

    When sellers resort to these methods I refuse to buy from them!
  • well we all have our opions dont we
    but i can not stress enough i am not the seller.

    Time will tell. I may be wrong and you may become a valued contributor to MSE. Sometimes I like being wrong :)
    Are there any other ebay sellers of oversize men's clothing that you would recommend?

    I like idea of a short shaped shrug in principle because you don't want to swamp a shaped top with a nipped in empire waist and chest detail with a big baggy ole cardigan - but I also wanted to suggest that perhaps you could think about wearing something underneath instead of over the top.

    Next do some cheap stretchy long sleeve and short sleeved T shirts in black, white and bright colours that might work:

    (I could barely find anything with actual sleeves at Yours! :eek:)

    As for colour - what about a string of beads, and/or a bright bangle or bag? Primark is brilliant for stuff like that if you have one nearby.

    Depending on what type of shoes you plan to wear, something as simple as bright pink toenails can look funky and feminine whilst adding a touch ofcolour to your overall look.

    I'm not big into hair accessories myself, but a cute little clip or hair band can look really pretty.

    I really love make up, nail polish and accessories - none of them have ever been known to make me feel fat! :D
    Wanna be my personal stylist?! lol
    Thanks for the tips! I got some matching accessories they are sort of pinky pearly beady, with a littlle flower IYSWIM, will try to look at similar styles to show lol

    I was having a sneaky peek at me muvva's tv book earlier in the week & the ad inside the back page was for a company called julipa.com The pic was some pretty nightdresses for x amount but went up to a 32 I think. I've been meaning to have a look at the website but keep forgetting :o [could be on purpose as I've some 3vans gift cards to use before I spend my own money]

    ETA..just had a look & it doesn't appear to be yet another version of the usual 'suspects'...

    Also just had a look & there looks to be some nice stuff, but it is part of the usual suspect JD Williams !!!:):):):):)

    That one too, I don't know why JD Williams confuse the market so much, probably a strategy to target as many segments as they can, but the websites are so similar, the branding is not clear enough.

    Anyway here's the JD W. portal where you can acces ALL of their websites.

    Often you will find similar items at different prices, so looking around is a good idea.

    I don't think they have already been mentioned, but I've come across an ebay seller with large size bras (DD cup and higher), selling branded bras at good prices.
    They have 100% feedback so they seem quite good.

    For example they sell Triumph Doreen from £13.95 (to £17.95) inc p&p while on sites like Figleaves they are £24-25.00 + posting.

    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/BIG-BEAUTIFUL-BRAS

    PS Only neg: they don't refund p&p you pay if you return an item because it does not fit or you don't like, only if it's faulty.
