Plus Size Clothing

Post by Hilly » Sun, 04 Apr 2010 3:12 am

I need formal clothing such as blazer, skirt and blouse, however the cloths here in Singapore is not big enough.
I had went to Mark & Spencer but the biggest size (UK 20) there is also not big enough for me.


Does anybody know any places that sell even bigger size clothing?

Or do anybody know any good and reasonable priced tailor shop that make ladies clothing that is located near the east side of Singapore ?

Do a search of the Beauty, Health & Fitness forum. It's been discussed numerous times

large sizes really hard to find out here. Why not find a tailor? I don't buy ready made clothing anymore except for casual clothes - tailor is so much better and less costly in the long run for better quality and fit. Far East plaza has a great selection. Try Mohan's - he does mens and womans and is very flexible and easy to work with.

Hi Hilly! You can check out Sant Rolane, they have many outlets. They have a website but it's currently down. They have a sister site, http://www.santrolaneuniform.com/, and addresses for shops are listed at there.
I bought my office wear there and they definitely have sizes bigger than M&S 20.
