I also tried this, which is lovely bit not as forgiving on a size 17.

What size did you get if you are a size 18- large or extra large?
Would size 16 be large or extra large?
How did you find UrbanCoco.
All these obscure brands ( great finds) on Mumsnet - how do Mumsnetters find out about them? I'd love to know.
Would it suit an apple shape ?

I've got a 'Christmas Day' with PIL today and wearing a dark red sequin pencil skirt with a black jersey wrap top and black tights/boots with red lipstick.

For proper Christmas Day I bought this dress by Mantaray for £20 which has a woodland animal print (I'm obsessed with woodland prints)...

I had no idea that people dressed up so much on Christmas day. There are only three of us and DD and I will not be wearing jeans, but neither OH nor his family dress up for Christmas day.

hollyisalovelyname I got XL and it is a good fit, as I say a bit stretchy too. I often trawl through e bay and amazon for 'plus size' dresses / tops or whatever I am looking for and all sorts of random brands come up, usually from china, I have had some really cheap but lovely outfits from both. wore this to go out in at the weekend

I got the medium in the end but am sending it back as it's massive and too long really. I'm 5 foot 7 and it's ankle length. Just felt a bit heavy and overwhelming really. It was drowning me.
