Bon March? or is it Marsh?

Oh that website is so sweet. They all look like my Nana. Have you tried Littlewoods/Debenhams or Bhs?

M&S?

Edinburgh Woollen Mill?

I work with elderly people but they just seem to look afetr stuff so well it lasts for years and they never update anything.

I think you could go down the high street and see stuff that you'd never even noticed before with different 'eyes'.

look at him with his expand a band trousers

My Gran is 86 and loves things from the Co-op, BHS and M&S classic section. Not sure whether you would find any of those dresses there though sorry!
Theres a thought... Where DO they buy them from?!

Bon Marche!

I did think of Bon Marche, but it's not quite elderly enough, IYSWIM! Same with M&S and BHS. My gran who died this year at 85 loved clothes from their classic ranges, but this is a whole other realm of old ladyishness!

I'm sure there must be shops that cater for this... I know my uncle got her a new dress for my cousins wedding about 6 years ago, which was probably the last new outfit she had, aside from nightwear.

Maybe I should try M&S ect first though.

bon marche or debenhams have some nice things

Cybil, I know! Aren't they sweet?

Go to a really good dress agency if she is incontinent, you can gets lots of things there and most of them look brand new. You can just throw away if they get too solied and replace them quite cheaply.

Boden apparently

I'm thinking you want Daxon

We have a bloke on the market who sells heavy polyester dresses with a floral print.He has about 100 of them on a rack, all slightly different, all about £15. He also sells very short leg, stretch waist trousers, tarten skirts, and odd 'silky' stretchy tops.

So that's where they all buy their clothes

At least they have models who reflect their customer base - unlike all the high street shops, grrr!!!

Damart was a favourite of my granny - she would have loved this dress.

Another vote for Edinburgh Woollen mill here - we got some lovely soft knits for my grandmas from there.

This is where my Nan (aged 89) gets all her stuff. We take the laptop over and she chooses what she wants.

Damart

My gran (89) buys things out of special old people catalogues.

Generally you can find adverts for these kind of places on magazines such as Good Housekeeping! No really.

She likes them cos they have details like elasticated waist bands. Gotta think comfort.

Charity shop/ebay?
