In Gib you will find Evans they are good and LittleWoods also go up to size 20in somethings, M&S, well what can I say they go up to 20/22 in very limited range but you have to be over 80 to qualify to wear them. El Corte Ingles do have larger size but they also come with a much larger price tag, way over what I would consider paying, 199.00 euros for a pair of trousers I don't think so some how.

Bras don't get me started on them:curse:, 36J is a size that I think the Spanish have never heard of, I buy all my underwear and swimming stuff via the internet it's the only way.
I`m definatly in trouble then,lol. way taller then 5 ft. You said you get Underwear and swimmwear online,what website do you use and do they deliever to Spain?

Thanks
Nicky

They wear those very becoming tent style dresses.

Here in Spain, EBay is your friend, clothes for plus sizes, especially from the USA and Canada are easy to find, some UK people do NOT send to Europe, but the USA and Canada always do, and postage rates are very reasonable,
often cheaper than from the UK.
