I am plus size but that doesn't mean I should have to wear old maid looking clothes. I want to be stylish and trendy. What are some good stores to shop at for plus size women?

I have the same problem and so do a lot of my friends. We made a new forum where we can exchange ideas and stores, online and offline ones. Join up if you want, it's free and a really nice group of ladies. http://biggerandbetter.forumotion.com/index.htm

Layne Bryant, Fashion Bug, and Catherines are the trendy plus size stores. They have some really cute clothes. Good luck!

I have a plus size friend that shops at Layne Bryant. She said it can be pricey, but if you sign up for their email, they send you coupons. They are usually located in malls, but you can also buy off their website.

i reccommend torrid. it's sorta like hot topic for the more zaftig woman. it is a little on the goth side but it has some nice regualr looking clothes as well. also i would recommend her looking at the stuff on sale first as it can get kind of pricey.

Lane Bryant is popular. I know some places have Torrid stores but not all places and Torrid is another store that caters to only plus sized women so that's another option. Fashion Bug is not specifically a plus sized store but they do have plus sized clothing. I've found that their selection of nice plus sized clothing has gone down in recent years but they do have some clothes. Just have to look. Deb's also's has some plus sized things as well. I actually bought both of my prom dresses from them because I knew they'd have a great selection.
