Okay females I am so tired of going into a store and trying to find something that fits and is in style. I am normally a size 13 which is a regular size standing 5'7 and 185 lbs. well I just had a baby and im dying to get back into those size 13 pants. I am now a 15 and its driving me crazy i cant find clothes that i like and oten get diguisted with women that are half my size. Its aggrivating and since i am so tall being much smaller then a size 10 would have me looking anorexic. So when are they going to start making cute clothes for us umm thick women out there. I ust dont understand i mean we want to be cute to? other thick women how does this make you feel or am i truly alone in this?

No you are not alone, I hate to go buy clothes, I look on the rack and it says large, large for who a pigmee. Seems everything that is cute is for a small person and we get stuck with the big flowers or prints that make you look like a whale when you put it on. I don't dress up too often and I hate it when I have to, I just go for black pants and a black or dark shirt. I see so many pretty things and I get discusted when I get to the racks that has my size and see there is nothing on them that is cute or in style. Guess if you aren't a size 2 you should stay in the house in your pj's.

I ask the same thing about finding a blouse or other top to fit a 40DD! If you are bigger than a 34C, it seems you are out of luck, unless you want something that is so low cut "it" all hangs out and slops around cause it is so tight you can't breath!!

i seldom shop in the mall for clothing because of my body shape (i am short and a size 12, but no hips or butt to speak of) i usually shop at thrift stores and resale places because i find the nicest stuff there (of course, you have to look around and be careful) but it is worth it!

I'm a size 4 petite and it used to be really hard for me to find clothes that fit, now I simply have them made or I spend more time searching or I keep on wearing my old clothes for many many many years. Anyway finding clothes that fit right is hard for most people because the standard sizes don't always match your particular body shape.

I know exactly what you mean! I was a size 11 for the longest time. Then, my boyfriend moved in and he's an awesome cook... I've gained enough weight that I'm in a 13. I can't find a thing I like when I go shopping for clothes, it's really annoying. My sister is literally a size 0 and shopping with her is awful!!! Of course, she can never find anything in her size either, there aren't very many stores around here that carry a size 0 so we're pretty much in the same boat, just on opposite ends. If I do manage to find jeans I like, they are generally about 6 inches too long for me because I'm only 5'5" and that makes it even worse!!!
