I'd try a good tailor. Instead of trying to buy ready to wear, invest in a couple of good quality pieces custom made for your body.
When I was living in Asia, I had to go this route. I'm a 6' female and could not find anything at the stores. You can get a pair of custom pants for under $100 US and a shirt would probably be about $80. Jackets can go as much as $400 depending on the materials and weight. Skirts are pretty cheap at around $75. It seems like a lot, but if you can be creative, you can get a lot of wear out of just a few pieces.
If you can learn to sew, you can make your clothes for about half of that. You can even import US sewing patterns very inexpensively.

Hi,
Actually, I think Dorothy Perkins carries extra large sizes as well. But they are not cheap as well....
Have you ever considered an alternative solution like losing weight?
I used to be quite heavy and also had problems buying clothes that look good and fit. Now that I am a size M after I lost 15kg within 2 months, it is a lot easier to shop! ;)
You can see my before and after pics here:

Now, I specialize in helping people lose weight easily and quickly using the detox program i used.
If you do a detox, you will be able to:
- gain better health and
- better vitality and
- even more radiant skin and
- the loss of some excess pounds as well,
All you need to do is three things.
Number one, follow the detox programme which requires you to change your diet a little bit. Eg, take more vege and less meat and seafoods.
Number two, use 1 minute a day to take some natural health foods consumable even by babies and pregnant women that will enhance the speed and the effect of the detox.
Number three, drink lots of water to flush the toxins out.
If you exercise by either running or swimming, it will furthur enhance the results.
And that's it.
The rest is up to you.
So what do you think? ;)

hi, go to OG people's park look for this counter call "Passion" They have size 22 to 24. Opposite Passion counter there is "Dorothy Perkins" u may try there too. Local Marks and Spencer also sells big size clothes but only to size 20. Lastly u can go to this shop call "York Boutique" at Tiong Bahru Shopping Centre or the new branch at Simei Eastpoint. They have plus sizes clothes.
Happy Shopping!~ ^_^

I had the same problem when I was in China. All their sizes are so small!
I would just order online and have stuff delivered! It might cost extra for the delivery, but worth it to have something to wear!

Wear a McDonalds shirt, a Lyposuction hat and some oprah pants.
