    I'm looking for a plus-size dress for my 21st next month and don't even know where to begin looking! I don't want to go too formal, and I think the ideal length would be around knee length? Price range is under €100 preferably. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I'll save some cake for whoever can help ;)

    Try asos.com their curve range is lovely. New look also do a plus size range as do forever 21, both have websites who deliver to Ireland :)

    What size are you if you don't mind me asking? Monsoon do lovely dresses, maybe a bit over budget though.
    New Look's range isn't brilliant but you should get something with Forever 21 just be careful with the sizing if you're ordering online.

    I'd be around an 18-20, bust and arms are the problem areas! I'll have a look and see, thanks a million :) I'm not really a fan of the Forever 21 + range, I bought a dress there recently and it just wasn't great quality, although for the pricing I suppose I can't really complain! Thanks again :)

    Dorothy Perkins might be another option or even Penneys although I've never bought a dress there (I'd be around the same size!)

    Yeah I was checking out DP, I think I need to go in and try something on, I find it so hard to tell with looking online! Pennys do have some lovely stuff at the minute, but just because it's for my 21st, I'd be scared somebody would have the same thing or something!

    I was looking for plus size clothes one day on the internet and I found this website called www.yoursclothing.ie.
    This company is based in the uk with a delivery charge of €7 for up to 50 items.
    They have some really nice dresses for sale for €30 to €60 and they also do shrugs and boleros for apox €20 -€25.
    Have a great time at your 21st.

    Okiss is that a reliable website? Are there any hidden custom charges?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Yours is a legit website, I've ordered from them before with no problems

    http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_008010642964_-1?breadcrumb=Home~Women I thought I'd let everyone know what I ended up getting, found this in Debenhams. It's from Jenny Packham's collection and is exactly what I was looking for :) thanks again for all your help!

    Lovely, very classy. My graduation dress was the same sort of shape and it's very flattering.

    That's gorgeous! But I thought you were looking for a plus-size dress?
