I was gonna go to an oxfam bridal shop to buy my wedding dress but a friend whet and was told her her bum was too big to fit in any of the dresses and my bum is way bigger than her's so thought I'd give it a swerve.

French connection though I tend to bulk buy during the sales! It’s expensive but each piece has lasted years if not decades. Some of them I still get complimented on 20years down the line. Buy quality that lasts.

I’ve been anti fast fashion for almost 15 years so tend not to buy lots of stuff

I literally can't do this, because there isn't a single store that sells an entire body's worth of clothing for people as outlandishly huge as I am. Most high-street shops don't carry anything at all I can wear.

I can get *most* things from 2Tall.com, but they don't carry essentials like socks and pants. Also, they often have quality control problems – their suits and trousers are especially terrible.

I love cp, prettygreen ted baker and the casual 80s brands. I used to shop all saints but their fit is shocking now days eveything seems catered to straight bodies, im very broard shouldered and slim waist.. everything just hands off me like a curtain

I'm with you on this one Ms B; charity shops are the way ahead! Although for me it would be the Red Cross one in my town.

The only problem with buying second hand men's clothing is that guys keep stuff for years and only get rid of it when it's totally worn out. I do get lucky sometimes as our Red Cross gets brand new clothing donated from Ted Baker.

John Lewis. Nice bags, good lingerie, decent work items. Not too expensive but not really cheap so I won't have to keep replacing items. And they price match as well! So yes, not wanky, not cheap. Solid middle classdom.

If I had to pick a brand it would be Montane (I just wish they would make more of their trousers with a tall option)

Retailors are hit and miss, I start with finding the item I want then look to see who has it in stock in my size. Maybe Cotswold Outdoors.
