Thought we could get a list going of clothing stores (online or not) because we all know how hard it is to find clothes. Thought it may be a handy reference that could get pinned to the top?


Dream Diva Link Store in Melbourne, otherwise online availabilty.

Igigi link - US online site but gorgeous dresses. Bit pricey though. Has wedding dresses available too.

A Cup Above link - Lingerie store in Joondalup, WA

City Chic Link - around the country. Just started stocking boots (yay!)

Anyone else want to add any??

Hello,

Some that I can think of now:

http://www.plusmaternity.com.au/ - as the name suggests, plus size maternity wear, made in Australia

http://www.2roads.com.au/ a reference for plus sized womens clothing stores in australia

http://entitled.com.au/

http://mysize.com.au/CMSHome.aspx - really good tops, I was able to wear their oversized tops as maternity tops throughout my pregnancy

http://www.ts14plus.com.au/home.html - funky clothes, more for a business/corporate look rather than everyday clothes

http://www.vivaswim.com/ - swimwear, 3 piece styles so you can mix & match, great maternity selection too up to a size 24

http://www.brastogo.com.au/index.php?optio...e&Itemid=53

HTH

I like big girls don't cry anymore. They are really pricey but the staff are lovely and their site is easy to use - I did it! ddance.gif And they talk to you over the phone and send things to you. It's really good for when you live a looooong way away.

Someone inanother site thingy on here said www.torid.com.

I don't know them myself but might be worth a look.

Great idea by the way OP. original.gif

Fantastic swimwear. I'm really happy with it. Love my rashie that actually fits and the sarong is lovely too.

My pets are trying to kill me.
Crossroads stock up to size 22. I am so annoyed they seem to be closing a few of their retail stores though you can still find them online http://www.crossroads.com.au/Home.aspx
I love that their range goes across the board of sizing and you dont need to feel stigmatised as a larger woman, confined to the plus size sections which often consist of tent type tops in unflattering styles.

Also I love the hippy labels Enchantress and Peace Angel that often go up to XXL. Available at Tree Of Life stores and other new agey type places.

JC Penny were great for maternity wear. Pumpkin patch also goes to XL in maternity too, probably fit a size 20 easily.
