Help, I'm trying to find a plus size range that I actually like. I'm a size 18.
I do try standard size 18 but find it too tight but the size 20s are too big, I'm not quite a size 20 yet (trying to diet but obviously need clothes in the meantime!)
Many of the plus size ranges I try are either too big or too frumpy looking.
I like new look inspire for their tops but not their trousers. I quite like yours clothing for trousers but struggling for jeans.
I'm also struggling to find somewhere good for work tops, that makes me look professional and not twice my age
ASOS trousers are too baggy at the crotch and overall ASOS is too expensive. Yours Clothing whilst good for trousers are rubbish for tops that aren't mumsy. Evans is mumsy also.
Boohoo and forever 21 are just a bit too young I think (I am mid 30s). Pink Clove seems quite limited and not cheap. Same for studio 8.
Dorothy Perkins is great for standard clothing which I am not anymore, but their plus size range should be renamed skinny size range - my size 8 sister fits perfectly into their size 18 plus size trousers - what's that all about?? (yes I did double check the label!)
Has anyone got good recommendations for places I might not have tried that isn't ridiculously expensive?
