Where do you buy your adult size teen girls shirts from?

Can someone please tell me where you buy your teenage girls adult sized school shirts from? My daughter is a ladies size 14-16 and I can't find anything! Last year I found short sleeve BHS shirts for her on eBay but they no longer trade I don't think! I'm getting stressed trying to find any.

I got school shirts for my daughter who is similar sized from next and marks and Spencer. I went for the oldest age group i think age 17. The next ones sit a bit better on her but both are good.

The M&S ones are also available in longer length but I imagine you've seen those- we have a similar problem with shoes, girls school shoes in a 7H!

i had this issue with DS15 needing 17” neck because of his broad shoulders - fits on the shoulders but massive elsewhere - I ended up looking at George at Asda as they were cheap and fit him! Might be worth checking their website for DD?

I was going to suggest asda george too I'm sure they go up to age 17-18 which are pretty decent sizing. if the girls don't fit how about the boys shirts because the only difference is that the buttons are on the opposite side nobody would notice the difference, boys are probably more generous sizing too. infact I've had to get my dd boys this year as because I've left it late they've sold out everywhere in my dds size in the girls so just bought 2 boys shirts that'll have to make do until girls are back in stock.

And girls shirts have darts in for their breasts. They are cut differently.

@HouseOfWaffles I think the boys tend to look broader though so that may compensate for not having the darts for bust, always worth a try she can always return them if no good. must admit my dd is only very slim with a small bust at the moment so boys are OK for her would obvs prefer girls blouses just wish I hadn't left it so late to buy uniform this year they sell out so quick.
