Where to shop for a fat size 16?

[Fattybumbah]

So I’m currently not going out because I can’t fit into any of my clothes.

of course I’m going to lose it any moment now - but in the meantime I rally just need to embrace it and get some clothes.

where do I shop?? I am big off bosom - average height - rally just looking for smart and stylish but not wanting to stand out too much.

happy to spend a bit but not masses (as going to lose weight ANY MOMENT NOW).

im feeling so overwhelmed.

thanks in advance!!

Toast have lovely unusual pieces. Not cheap but the sizing is usually on the generous size.

I really like Yours Clothing. I get a 16 from them and it's always very generous for my 16-18 frame, tops in particular are a nice length and flattering. I recently went on a cruise and got some nice bits from them. Easy to return too.
Trousers are harder for me, I have massive legs! Don't tell anyone but Bon Marche fit me well.

Ohhh these are all fab recommendations thanks!

I do think there is a lot to be said for confidence

i used to work with a woman who was a size 22 (I know because she told me) and good lord she always look soooo well put together and gorgeous

Also try magic trousers in the XL, they are so flattering and so comfortable.

I'm your size and I love Roman Originals

Maybe you are so distressed by this because you used to be thinner, so consider yourself Fat. I am a size 16/18. I don’t consider myself Fat and I shop where others shop 🙄 Mostly Other Stories, Hush, Boden, Cos, Arket and Great Plains, occasionally H&M. I don’t understand your problem. Just shop where you have in the past 🤷‍♀️

Op, please try Bloomchic.
I am the same as you and had fallen into a terrible habit of minimal effort feeling that nothing looks good so why bother??
Since buying some bloomchic dresses I feel a million times better and regularly get complimented. It feels great.
Be careful with their sizing though as it's US sizes.
