Ski outfit suggestions

I am size 20 on the bottom half and size 16-18 on the top half, and I am looking for a ski outfit that won't make me look any fatter than I am. I am a beginner so don't want to spend more than £100 for everything (I already have gloves, base layer, socks and goggles). Does anyone have any good ideas?

Stuff has come but not quite in a position to model it for a photo at the moment. But I tried it on and it didn't look bad at all. Grin

Went to John Lewis to enquire about extra bits and pieces yesterday, only for them to advise me Aldi was cheaper! Went up there and nearly fainted with shock. Got an adult ski suit for DS1 for £36, gloves for DH for £4.99 and thermals for DS3 for £5. Lots of other similar mums in there arms down in the rummage bins like ducks submerged in a pond! Children's ski suits for the price of a pair of technical socks in the resort!

Matalan seem to have gone into skiwear as well. Gosh, it's everywhere. Quite like their black jacket but I've taken the tags off the pink one now!

Yes to previous poster who said it will be cold.
Possibly very cold.
Take every layer you have, you won't care what you look like.
Last year I had some heat tec leggings from uniqlo, worn under tights. that worked well.
