Curvydiva.co.uk - these have some stunning evening dresses that would make a stand. But you'll need to find out hip and bust size in inches are there sizes are bizzare. They also do made to measure for only £60 more which would fit with the budget.

Hello, I know how she feels. I was a size 16, but gained weight and now a size 18. I wanted to look elegant and beautiful. I shop at Ross, but for more stunning outfit, I shop at IGIGI http://www.igigi.com where the designs and clothing are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! I have most of their dresses because I'm a fan and attend a lot of events... I do get noticed at events because of the elegance and cut that tailors and essentuate my figure... blew me away from all the responses of what I wore... just check it out.

I wear an 18 so I feel her pain. I am not sure of the occasion but check these places most have websites. Lane Bryant, The Avenue, Torrid, Baby Phat, Apple Bottom, or Old Navy. all these places have plus sized apparel some only have it. They are in her budget and have a variety of styles for her to chose from.

Have you tried Principles, Next or Debenhams because they usually have some nice things and they cater for size 16's and upwards so it is worth looking at their websites to see if you can fine anything

It depends on where you live, if you live in London there is a famous road called Fonthill Rd in Finsbury Park N17 where you can get fabulous clothes for all shapes and sizes and at reasonable prices. good Luck

I know that the fashions on QVC are always designed for plus sizes as well as smaller ladies because they say it all the time when presenting the items.
Susan Graver, Denim and Co., and Citiknits are all lines with QVC that are fashionable, durable, and flattering.

Try all the others advice about shops but also try something differant.
Try differant styles when we are bigger we tend to stay in a certain style. Try varing different styles you will be surprised. Have fun be outrageous you will be surprised.
