to be annoyed that it's easier for fat women than for short women to buy clothes.

[moxiemonster]

A new Simply Be has opened here. We now have that and Evans. I should imagine the moderately stout can get into clothes in most shops. If you're short, there are rarely dedicated shops and the choice is limited and twee.
Obviously there is money to be made in the plus size market. It's just one of life's unfairnesses that the cake munchers are rewarded for their lack of self control with clothes to fit them.

Well I have just sacked my personal trainer, told some twat person on the web told me I would have loads of choice of clothes if I got fat. So what's the point, turns out fat people have it easy because somewhere there are 2 high street shops for plus size women. Lucky them

While I agree about specialist ranges for shortarses (petite - shudder) I find your attitude 'self control' a bit, er, Victorian.

I think we should have specialist Slapper Shops for the Sexually Incontinent, actually.

Oh and from now on I shall call myself moderately stout!! I love it..so witty!!! I would have thought of it myself but I was too busy eating a pallet of cakes.

Learn to sew. Or fuck off. Or both if you're able to multi-task.

Well I will say it's easier for both fat and short women to buy clothes, than tall people.
Unless you are tall and fat.
Then you are in shit street.

FALSE
There are shops with petite sections.
if you are a bit skint go to a kids/teen section.
..

Come back when you're tall and tops that aren't dresses are barely long enough...

I'm fat and also ridiculously tall, and manage to dress myself. Make more effort.

Yanbu 5ft 2 short arse here. Can't change your height but you can change your weight !

Petite stuff does tend to be a bit naff, though. One is expected to be a girly fluffy type.

'cake muncher' [hgrin]

Try being 6ft tall - then it's reaaaaaally hard!
There's long tall Sally and that's it and you have to be a millionaire to shop there

Especially when you through size 9 clown feet into the mix!

Shorties?! At least you can just chop a bit off the length! You don't know how good you little people have got it!

And lots of the nicer shops don't have Shortarse Sections.

*throw

Oh, do fuck off.

Also, at mrsdevere.

In Russia there are surgeons who'll break your legs for you and stick a bit of extra length in.

Admittedly it's pricey and it might sting a little for a few months and you'll need to relearn how to walk but those minor issues aside you'll have long legs at the end!

5 2 here and i dont find it a problem, next do petite rangers and their jeans are fine, hennes skirts etc are fine as are their tops, ditto white stuff tops etc. i like joe browns as well, sometimes get stuff from supermarkets etc, its not that hard at all.

I am short and fat. I hate clothes shopping because I can never find anything to fit however, I have got more important stuff to be worrying about than whether fat people have more clothing options tbh.

What about us poor sods who are somewhere in the middle height wise - too tall for petite clothes (trousers look like ankle swingers) and too short for 'regular' length clothes (trousers drag on the floor and get ripped/muddy unless you wear super high heels).

Buy children's wear? No VAT either.

Where's the OP gone?

I'm worried she's fallen between the keys on her keyboard

Banished to a life of munching on toast crumbs and chipped nail varnish...

Besides. Everyone goes on about clothes but what about bloody high shelves in supermarkets? I think Sainsburys should issue me with a tall person on arrival to go round and lift things down.... And if they DON'T then they can't object to me borrowing one of their stools.

All those Petite ranges, specially designed for short women. They no good then?

maybe she fainted with the very effort of typing?
