Woman's clothes

Somewhat annoying because they always have something in them I would like to own. I get Roaman's and i like it. I also like to watch HSN and QVC on cable. Lots of casual clothes. Hot in Hollywood just has their line on lastnight. Pretty blouses and new stretchy jeans in pretty Springy colors.

I never order clothes from a catalog unless it's t-shirts in medium or large, other than that, I never order clothes from catalogs.

I wish I had your problem. I really like the clothes for younger people, but I am way too large. In the US we have Misses sizes, Petites, Juniors, and Women's. I find that I fit right in between Misses and Women's. Misses is often too small, and Women's is too big. Honestly I am not built like a Fifty Plus.

When I used to look at the Sears catalogue, it always seemed that any clothes I liked usually started a size or two larger than would fit me. I pretty much have to try everything on to see if it fits.

ya you are very funny my friend. you are posting these stuffs here

What are English sizes? Like American sizes? LOL I guess I don't really know. That cataloge might suit me - depending on the style of it that is. I haven't really been sent too many clothes cataloges, the only ones I've been sent are from Victoria's Secret. I have a credit card with them (don't worry, I am not carrying a balance on there thankfully LOL) - but they send me a catalog EVERY SINGLE MONTH. I end up looking through them, but I detest the idea of paying $50 for a bra. And some of their clothes are cute (although overpriced), but I would never bother with buying their clothes because you can't try them on (they only sell them online and by catalog) and there is such a huge risk involved with buying a piece of clothing you can't try on. Who knows what it will look or fit like. *shrugs*. You would think they would stop sending me so many darn catalogs considering I have NEVER bought anything from them, EVER, since being a credit card holder and since I started receiving them (like TWO years ago!). Ha ha. Oh well. Sometimes they can be fun to look through.

Don't those "supplement" catalogues tend to cater for people that have issues with the limited range of "normal" sizes you'd find on the high street? If you're tall or small or big,you can be looking a long time for something you'd want to wear in a regular shop..My Brother's wife in the US can shop in the kids department,She's so petite..

It sounds to me they presumed your size by your age. Maybe Im wrong. I do hate when i see something so cute but it doesn't fit, either in a catalogue or out shopping. There are some very cute clothes that I can't wear either for it being too small or too big.

i will admit that most of us over 50 has trouble , more then ever before, of keeping our weight down. but they shouldnt assume all older ladies are larger thats just dumb of them.

I like a catologe that stats in the front what it is about. I don't like to get half way through the book and find out there is nothing there that I would like to have.

sometimes clothes catalogue are not so good and i wonder how was the cloth, i do prefer actual shopping.. im really addicted to forever21 clothes! i want all of them.haha

I remember I once ordered a pair of shoes with my viza card and the shoes were cheap , the shoes started to tear apart at the first day I used them. So , make sure the clothes are strong and of good quality , hey , maybe if they are bad quality , those will shrink after being in the wash machine , so it's good for you. About the size , I think you could still pick up the phone and ask them if they got something for your size. Maybe they have some small clothes in the storage as leftovers ? If they don't , you can still order it and then take it to the dressmaker or to the tailor and ask to make the clothes smaller. It will cost you money though. But you will be able to wear the clothes you wanted.

I think the catalogue was meant to target the English Women and it just happened that women above 50 were in that range of size. I think you can contact the manufacturers if you find something that you like to buy and there is no available size.

Yeah, I found catalog that sells cute shoes but the size is 38-39 (Indonesia size), SO, I can't buy it because my feet size is 37. And feet with 37 size is no hard to find the shoes in that size. But, this catalog not sell it in my size. In other hand common Indonesian size for feet is 38-40. Very annoying...,

I went into one of those Plus Sized places once looking for what we call a "big shirt" and I was at that time a size 10 and they wanted to chase me out with a stick (figuratively speaking) -- seriously, the Plus Sized clerk was really rude. She looked me up and down and said I was in the wrong store. I was looking for size 15, which they carried, but they were too expensive anyway. I went into a different Plus Size store and ended up buying several items. I am way over 50 but still have and wear and like those clothes.

hiAnne and for us that are really big why do they assume we are at l;east five ten to six feet tall? I am big yes but short five foot two inches eyes of blue green lol.so I try on dresses that look like evening gowns on me, slacks that are five inches too long,skirts the same way. sure it fits my body width wise but not length I look like a fat kid trying to wear moms dresses not an elderly lady swimming in garments meant for a woman six foot tall.

Anne,I am morbidly obese. I have to buy clothes in the plus sizes! I will be 50 in May,too! It is not fun shopping at my size! Sometimes I order out of magazines to buy some of the clothes I can't find in the stores! I never liked to shop and being this size makes it even worse!

I find the name of the catalog to be somewhat offensive, but I don't think that a catalog that features plus sized clothes is a bad thing at all because there are a lot of women in the world today that do need to wear plus sized clothes. However, those women are not all older women. As a woman that wears plus sized clothes, I know that there are women of all different ages that are plus sized.

No, I can't stand buying clothes from catalog, I had a bad experience one time a few years back, where I found this nice bathing suit that really caught my eye, at the time I was a size 10 (english size), when I got the swim suit, first the material was horrendous and it looked and fitted like almost a size 12 or even 14. I was so disappointed, luckily I was able to return it with a full refund, but that was the last time I ever ordered anything through a catalog. I do however sometimes order things online, like store such as Macys, JcPenny, Kohl's because their return policy is convenient and I could just return it at the store instead of having to ship it back.

Clothes catalog could be annoying especially when they contain clothes that are not quite what you like or that are not your style
