The Style Channel said "The highest quality special occasion
suits available online"
Fashion Today Magazine said "Womensuits.com carries the most
gorgeous church and special occasion suits we have seen" -
- and we found their prices very reasonable. Sizes to 30W
Using the net, Womensuits are ending the media myth that plus size
women aren't attractive and style-conscious. You can now buy the
same plus size fashion suit in Alabama that you can in L.A.
You
may not recognise Amerimark as a ' plus size clothing ' retailer,
but when we visited their site we found lots of womens plus size
business suits & smart skirt and pantsets in sizes 20W to 26W
with a few up to size 34W. Their suits look good value, and, of
course, they have a full range of blouses and accessories for a
complete fashion look.
Avenue aren't a women's
suit retailer as such, but they have an excellent range of work-casual
plus size dresses and fashion jacket blouse and pant sets. Size
14 to 32.
Always
for me we think offer a good choice for a less formal work setting.
{ really nice '' smart casual '' plus size clothing - but for sharp,
fashion work suits we would favour Amerimark, Elisabeth, and for
special occasion Womensuits }
We
like Lane Bryant's plus size business suit offering. Sizes 14W up
to 28W.
Their site gives you a "what matchs this" suggestion for all their
suiting section, which we liked, as it gives well chosen alternatives
to simply choosing the pants or top that was originally paired with
the other as a suit. Plus size models are used too, a big thumbs
up in our books. All the site lacks is a decent "search for
what's in my size" type function.
Chadwicks
have a good collection of "Career sets" and "Career
dresses" right now.
The "Womans" section of their site is for everything size 18 to
24. We would say that they make looking your best possible if you
are on a budget, with the latest trends tailored to a flattering
fit.
Catherines
plus sizes cater for career and workwear very well, with fashion
and styles aimed, in our opinion, at the age 40+ market.
Roamans have suits and co-ordinates
to size 34W in most styles, and to size 44W in some. They have 12
pages of " career wear " plus size business suits, dresses
and co-ordinates. The biggest drawbacks with their site are the
lack of a search by size function, and thin models.
Christopher
& Banks Corporation is a Minneapolis based company that specializes
in women's apparel. They provide a fresh and colorful mix of clothing
and accessories for every season, creating looks that work for their
customer's lifestyle. Sizes 14W to 24W.
Macys don't have the same plus size
range as others, but they do have suits to 26W by the likes of Calvin
Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. At least their models showing off the
Plus sizes aren't stick-thin.
Jessica London®
provides quality career, casual and special occasion fashion, plus
classic, easy-to-wear business separates, to womens size 32. What
we also like is that they unconditionally guarantee all merchandise.
If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, return it
within 90 days of receipt to make an exchange or receive a refund
(excluding shipping and handling charges).

NEIMAN-MARCUS
have one of the most difficult to navigate sites we have EVER come
across. ( It takes about 10 minutes to find the plus size section,
which they have hidden. Are they telling us something by this ???
) Although they have to size 3X in several styles ( all models are
stick insect thin ) we think that you would have to have more money
than common sense to pay the over the top prices that they are charging
