WOMEN'S
PLUS SIZE CLOTHES
- fashion for age 25+ to styles for mature ladies.
Elvi, the UK's largest independent
plus size women's fashion retailer, offer a comprehensive range
of plus size day, casual and occasion wear with a full range of
fashion accessories to match. With sizes 16 to 26, we find they
offer a range of plus size 'must have' fashion trends not seen
online elsewhere with the same choice. With colour and texture
being the most important features, their collection appeals to
the age "30 something" shopper.
MandCo. are an established High Street name that are now online.
Long recognised for offering value, their present 'Plus' range,
to size 28, offers styles aimed at the woman aged 30+ , who
is after either single pieces or an overall look with accessories.
Evans
are the largest retailer of womens outsize in the UK. We haven't
been their number one fans in the past, when their styles were
frumpy and boring. Thankfully all has changed for the better.
Designs and clothes fashion ideas have greatly improved, as has
their website. Well worth a visit now. Sizes 16 - 32
In our opinion Spirito's Italian designers have left better known
plus size clothes boutiques like 16/47 and Size Up far behind
them. They have fashion flair, they use excellent material like
cashmere, angora and merino, and have excellent looking finish.
Sizes 16-30.
They have shops in Cowes and Bournemouth.
Free UK returns if necessary.
Ambrose Wilson have an excellent site. Sizes 12 to 34. Plus size
dresses, coats, suits, tops, knitwear and more. We find the site
easy to use, and found loads of choice, even in the larger sizes,
at very reasonable rates, on our last visit. 10% off your first
online order. Free returns if necessary
Simply
Be
Simply Be we would class as the best 30+yr old woman's site for
those who want to set trends, rather than just follow fashion.
Their clothes have flair, exciting designs and the latest fashion
ideas in our opinion. Sizes 12-34
JD Williams JD Williams is a site for the 40
to 50 year old average to plus size woman. A little extra maturity
to the fashion offering here than, say, Simply Be or Fashion World,
but with more flair than the elegant style of the FiftyPlus site.
A very large offering of fashion here from size 12 to size 34,
and with some limited selections to size 38
Fashion World Fashion World is a site for aged
30+ in our opinion, with younger cuts and styles, but without
the very bright fashion looks of Simply Be.
We do not like
the appearance of their website. It's very dark. That said this
season's fashion is attractive and reasonably priced. Plus sizes
to size 28.
NewNow is the clothing site for the young, age 25+ woman who is
looking for cheaper versions of the Celeb fashions she has seen
in Heat or OK magazine. NewNow have the very latest trends as
they are happening, but at cheaper prices. Sizes 12-32
Marisota is another site for the young plus size woman. Their
styles are more Yours Magazine than the Celebrity styles of NewNow,
and more "contemporary high street" than the cutting edge of Simply
Be. They have a very wide range of fittings, so it's a must visit
if you usually have trouble getting clothes for your shape. Sizes
12-34

Jackets & Coats, Swimwear, Nightwear, Shoes, Bags, & Other
Accessories.
LX
Direct have a smallish plus size selection in their Women's clothing
