All about Plus-sizes

[beach]

US Size 18 ako... Sa Maldita X 2L ako....

[calimaki]

I try mo sis sa Forever 21, marami silang plus size outfits dun. Not so sure about white but who knows, you might get lucky.

^^same tayo ng size. weird ang sizing nila, sa blouses tama naman, minsan nga 1x lang ako pero sa dresses yung biggest size dapat. Medyo colorful ang dresses ng F21 pero malay natin baka makajackpot ka nga. M&S naman too plain, debenhams parang too formal/oldies for my taste. Minsan meron din sa tiangges kaso medyo mahirap din maghanap lalo kung gusto mo mabilisan na shopping

Thanks sis. Puntahan ko bukas yung Forever21... Sana... cross fingers... Saan branch kaya sis? How much yung price range sa M&S? Pero at this point, I don't care na... basta makahanap lang ng white dress.

how many pounds ba do i need to lose to reduce 1-2 dress size? May size 16 kasi na white sa SM Dept. (just in case wala talaga). Grrrr... I might need to starve this week and next week para lang makasuot ng white dress.

^sis try mo kaya magsuot ng shapewear? medyo nakakaliit sya ng tummy at hips kaya mas okay ang fit ng dress pag may suot ka. problema pag sa bandang arms and boobs ang masikip lol! May branch ang F21 in SM Megamall, Makati, North, Moa.

M&S nasa 2-3kup ang dresses nila pero don't expect too much, kasi plain talaga ang designs. Topshop and Dorothy Perkins they have big sizes din pala, di sila nagkakalayo ng pricing.

Sadly... may kasama ng shapewear ang size 18 ko... 

[abuanddiego]

^kelan ba ang event? tyaga lang yan sa paghahanap, makikita mo rin ang right white dress for you

April 28 pa sya sis. Kapag wala pa ako mahanap bukas, magpapatahi na ako.

Maybe 10 minimum? 10-20 lbs. I jump down to size 14 when I'm 20 lbs lower. Now 16 ako. (

@beach -  Just in case, wala ka mahanap, maybe you can opt for a simple white dress basta good fit and then bawiin mo sa accessories and/or a belt para fashyown pa rin. Just a suggestion. 

[abuanddiego]

^ganyan din naiisip ko, bawiin na lang sa accessories kung wala talagang bonggang makita. Ang hirap kasi pag mali ang fit ng damit, makikita na uncomfy ka and it can ruin your mood.

sis beach, I was at Sm North yesterday, wala ako nakitang white dress sa F21 and dept store. dapat ba plain white? or pwede naman cream/dirty white?

[ablosh]

I saw a plain white sleeveless dress on Dorothy Perkins' fb page. Maybe they're in stores already? Might be a bit pricey but they sure carry sizes up to the double digits.

Good luck!

Hi sisses! Thank goodness, nakahanap na ako ng white dress... actually, cream sya... pero bahala na, hehe. I bought 2 dresses, both from Dorothy Perkins!

Pumunta ako ng Trinoma... went to Dept store... found some dresses from Occasions (too sheer), Nina Lee (ang pangi) and Isabelita Novenario (Filipiniana, papuntang beige na, pero maganda sana ang fit)... and then went to Debenhams (may cream na sleeveless, which was okay, pero grabe... almost 6K). I was losing hope... I crossed to SM North... wala akong nahanap dun, not in M&S (walang plain white or plain cream) and not in Forever21 (kasi puro printed and blue yung andun)... Akala ko nasa SM North ang Dorothy Perkins pero wala pala. I went to mananahi na pero inayawan ako kasi too late na daw...

So I went back to Trinoma... resigning myself to the Filipiniana dress nalang or yung cream dress sa Debenhams... tapos bigla, nagflash ako na may DP sa Trinoma... went there to check.. and lo and behold... found 2 dresses na kasya sa akin!!! and they look good on me!!!!

Thanks so much for all your help, mga sisses. May happy ending ang search ko for a white gown!!! Yipee!

[beach]

By the way, 50% OFF selected dresses sa DP today... I dunno till when... Madami size 18, natetempt nga ako bumili kanina pero priority ko muna yung white/cream dress ko.

Yung cream dresses ko... 2895php yung isa, and 1895 yung other one. Okay na rin. Hindi on sale, pero less than the price of the one dress I saw in Debenhams... Sorry, kwento ako ng todo.. I am just so happy!!!

where can i get the floral jeans/leggings and how much?

[beach]

I saw fitted pants na floral print kanina at Forever21 (SM North Edsa)... medyo jeggings na rin ang dating ata.. just dunno the price.

[ablosh]

Floral pants ng F21 Plus would be around 1200+ or 1400+ usually. Meron akong nasukat doon, super nice floral print pero I didn't buy because the pair I got from M&S twice ko palang nagamit eh. Hehe! Have to hold back from impulse shopping pero maganda talaga!

[beach]

further reductions ng dorothy perkins starts today!!!
