[quote=Anonymous]I used to buy clothes from Lands End for summer wear (shorts, tanks, loved their fit and flare dresses), but recently everything I’ve looked at in plus looks like something my grandma would wear. I realize I’m older than I used to be, but I don’t want to dress like grandma. But they do inclusive sizing and have a lot of options. I’ve been pleasantly surprised at brands that have expanded their sizing beyond traditional sizing, but I’ve also found that a lot of larger sizes are cut WAAAAY too low and have giant armholes. I might be fat but my boobs still need to be covered and while my arms are flabby I don’t want you to see my bra under my arms. I wish brands could figure out how to cut plus sizes. It’s not just bigger all over. Old Navy is a good example. I can try on almost everything in the store now, but most of it just looks like shit on me. I’ve had marginally better luck with brands like Anne Klein, Calvin Klein, etc. at Macys, but those are more for work clothes. I still struggle with weekend/vacation wear. I’m intrigued by the Kiyonna dress and am going to see if I can find it at Macys![/quote]
