Do Joe Browns clothes like those of us with Grand Norkage? Or not? Hmmm?

Now I like Joe Browns clothes.

I am also blessed with Grand Norkage.

Opinions sil vous plait....and advice on fitting and sizing.

Merci buckets :)

I also have grand norkage and I find Joe Browns to be rather good. Their tops seem to be good size wise. I'm a 16-18, more an 18 at the moment.

Depends - I am a size 14 with 32E norks - I have sent Joe Brown's size 14 tops back because they looked like a tent, but have a shirt that is also a 14 which I cannot get into. I love it though, so am kidding myself I will lose weight and fit into it soon. Blush

I knew the grand norkage gals would be wise (and fast!) Thanks :)

I'm a 36FF/G and am planning on smaller norks in the near future.

i am interested to find out to - i love the clothes but have been nervous of ordering. i wear a 14 but have 34G bust.

TheVisitor · 05/04/2011 15:44

Katz, try a 16 to start with.

style - Grin where else do you shop then, i've found mantaray at debenhmas is great but white stuff too small in the boob dept.

White Stuff makes me feel enormous, as does Karen Millen are her compadres.

I'm currently going through a big order by Pepperberry (ye olde bravissimo) and am loving have it fit my boobs and then tuck in to show a relatively neat stomach area kinda.

I also like Wallis but they can be a bit frumpy but are great for everyday tops and their jeans are a great fit I like John Rocha at Debs too.

Other than that it's always trial and error and never-ending returns to the Post Office.

Damn grand norkage Wink

I could probably find more stuff if I wasn't so disgusted at the site of my 'back hamsters', you know when a top is too tight and shows your back fat trapped in your bra all pulling and that

i like the spotty prom style dress pepperberry currently have but have no where to wear it. i have a few of their smart tops from ages ago but they do fit very nicely, although are rather cleavage tastic!
