a question for my plus-size ladies????

**shayo4real** · 05-31-2005, 09:22 PM

so i have serious issues when it comes to shoping for clothes: when i go to express and all dem their bigest clothes do not fit or it's really tight....but when i got to ashley stewart/lanebryant the smalles sizes are to big, i'm stuck in the middle and it's really fustrating...that is one of the main reasons i'm losing weight(shop with ease and convinence)....anyways for the meanwhile(before i can fit into a size 4

) do any of you ladies have any suggestions...i.e: stores that carry clothes for those who are big but not to big(if that makes sense?)

i'm not a big ghel, but u cn try big department stores like nordstroms, saks, robinson may, macy's etc. they have womens section from a lot of different companies. they all cut their sizes differently. good luck sista

go to stores that cater to a wider range of sizes..that go from small sizes right up to a size 16 or so..which is equivalent sometimes to the smallest size in the plus size stores..so, you'll definately be sure of getting your size there..NY and Co is a good possibility..

i just went to ny and co the other day and i was quite suprised, i was able to get a lot clothes....i never really thought to shop there.... i thought it was a store for lepa's...but i found clothes for work and party and not to expensive.....

NY & Co is definitely a good store because they cut their clothes a bit bigger... a size 2 there is like a size 8 at the Gap

... also try H&M. I know they carry up to size 16.

You should be able to go to Express & Co sha cos they carry 12/14...
