The Finest British/UK Stores for Plus Size Fashion
We do not understand what it is but we hope they don’t stop whatever it’s they’re doing. Not merely are the fashions hot (that creature print number above), but cheap, even AFTER you factor in the market rate (which can be around 2x the cost listed in pounds) and shipping ( that is usually a set amount to the US). Thus, being the Budget Fashionistas we’re, we compile a listing of our best online UK stores for plus size girls to shop online (and that provide to the US).
Best UK Plus Size Shops Online
ASOS Curve
ASOS, the worldwide internet fashion and beauty retailer has won the hearts of both and size girls. They had a following for their straight size brands but their popularity sky rocketed when they introduced their Curve lineup, made for women sizes 16-22. Because it offers a conglomeration of fashion pieces specifically cut for a plus size figure we adore this UK brand using an US site. In the ASOS Curve range you will find an range of skinny jeans, peg leg trousers body hugging pencil skirts in bright colours, and a bunch of casual and office chic tops. The ASOS Curve line also challenges the fashion rules of what size women shouldn’t wear. You’ll come across mini dresses and playsuits as well as pleated shorts, cropped trousers in vivid colors in fun prints. An additional plus is that ASOS offers free shipping on their US website.
Dorothy Perkins
Dorothy Perkins is kind like the British Forever21. As soon as it’s not a”plus size” website, the does go up to a Uk dimensions 22/US 18 and, because of their generous cuts, their fashions can be worn with those around a US size 20/22. Since it offers pieces from pretty much every fashion 14, we like Dorothy Perkins. It is possible to find jackets 50’s fashion dresses, and fun color sweaters. Not only do they have an great choice of apparel however handbags and their shoes are terrific. The shop offers a level rate 7.95 pound shipping to the US.
Evans
Evans is kind of like the UK’s variant of Lane Bryant- a omnipresent shop that tends to appeal to the”older” set. While the store has ventured into more fad focused wear (ie a line by Beth Ditto), for the large part the shop concentrates on classic styles and basic bits in US sizes 14-28. A size fashionista will find loads of maxi dresses bohemian prints and style dresses. You will also find a selection of work wear pieces along with colorful t-shirts. Interestingly, Evans is possessed by the same people who own Topshop (so why is Evans so behind about the fashion curve?)
Simply Be
If you’re looking for comfy dresses in standout prints then Only Be is a website worth checking out. Note: you may require a little bit of patience because the site is a popular mess. We enjoy Be for plus size women since it’s a mash up of styles which range from unique. Locate a set of flowery palazzo pants and on this website, a 70’s style paisley print tunic, to some tribal print maxi dress in US sizes 10-28. They also carry plus size brands like Anna Scholz and Joe Brown. Looking for calf boots? Simply Be has you covered.
Style 369
This Junior plus size website (owned by the very same people who have Evans) is to get the curvy girl who desires trendy fashion forward pieces on a budget. Presently the face of the brand is Hayley Hasselhoff, the daughter of David Hasselhoff. The site also provides a medley of other UK brands such as Lovedrobe, Max C. and Praisin. Our only grasp is that most of the items are in dark black or gray.
New Look-Inspire
New Look is one of the UKs like brands that are in the UK. Their size section provides everything from denim coats day dresses to knitwear and hosiery. Even though they carry pieces in way too much gray and black, they do try to throw in a piece like this chopped yellow shirt. Sizes range from 14-22.
