what is lacking in plus size online shop

plussizefanclub writes in General

Any plus size lady out there to share your online buying experience? what do you think is lacking in current plus size online shop? I am size 18 and purchase most of my clothing from online. Unfortunately most of my purchases are disappointment. What I find lacking in current plus size online shop are: number 1, lack of style: number 2, not using plus size model and number 3, no exchange. What is your experience?

Have you tried the wrap dresses from Anna Rainn in Great World City? They do have L sizes available as well.

I did online shopping most of the time. I have a UK18 top and a UK20 bottom. There are a few shops selling plus size clothing in Singapore but I find them expensive. Some online stores are also selling quite expensive and their prices are usually in the range from S$30 to S$80.
It seems like majority online stores including those selling regular sizes implement "No Exchange" policy. What I dislike most is they do not provide sufficient estimated measurements for plus size shoppers. This can be frustrating because we (the buyers) have to make sure we do not buy the wrong size, as we cannot exchange the wrong size received.
I found a few online stores quite good. Most of their apparels are from United States. Their style is good enough, good quality apparels and the prices are reasonable. Perhaps, you can try them out. They also provide sufficient measurements for reference before buying.
Here are their websites;www.plusylicious.com (Their prices so far are the lowest)www.pluspink.com
I found one store in Suntec City selling similar design but their prices quite expensive. Their address is; Divine Cottage, 3 Temasek Boulevard #03-026F Suntec City Shopping Mall

Any sizes above a 12 UK can be an issue in Singapore - as a size 14 myself I get quite depressed and made to feel huge so can empathise! I have bought a wrap dress from the shop mentioned at Great World and it was around $120 however do get a lot of use out of it.
