Clothing Catalogue recommendations for the Older Shopper

Hi there,
I've recently cancelled my mum's Abifel catalogues as I've not read very good things about the company.

As my mum's 84 and a full time carer for my dad, it's important that she's still able to shop from home and I'd love to sign her up with a different catalogue that caters for a slighly older clientelle, and offers good quality clothing at a reasonable price.

If anyone has any recommendations that would be wonderful! Thankyou.

p.s. my mum's not computer savvy, hence the need for a catalogue!

    Damart is a long established catalogue company for older people. Several of my friends shop with them and the clothes seem to be quite nice - certainly not cheap & nasty. A bit like B&M if you have been in one of their shops.
    You could ring them and ask for a catalogue. Don't be put off by the fact that most of the models appear to be between 25 & 40 though! Certainly worth looking at anyway.

    J D Williams - my elderly mum used them for years and was very happy.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!
