Does anyone have any advice where to find affordable, 100% cotton gingham dresses that are plus (generous) size? M&S used to do a cotton plus range and they were absolutely perfect! I have not seen them this year?! While it’s still warm, we’d like to wear the summer dresses but last years are getting a little tight. The 100% cotton styles are usually longer anyway so much bigger sizes will be very very long..

“We”? Is that why you need plus size? 🤣

What about your local Facebook page which might have parents with kids in year above on? Or asking parents you know with older kids, if they then know other older kid parents?

Next do a plus fit range

@Cocomarine - thank you for the advice, but I have already searched local groups and eBay for possible options and there isn't anything in the right size. And unfortunately, the school does not have second-hand sales etc. We are in one of the last years and the only school with this colour in town so not many options! It's also quite a small school.

Thank you @Pieceofpurplesky but Next are polycotton, not 100% cotton.

@Pieceofpurplesky - just had a quick look on Next, just to see how much polyester their dresses have and they are out of stock in all the bigger sizes anyway!
