PLUS SIZE and in despair...
Sorry for reposting as I need more ideas from you all..
Which shops sell plus size clothes in Doha? I find that there is very little selection for clothing and footwear for the tall females, especially if they are overweight too.
Yesterday I found some stretching clothes for myself but came back and found my daughter who is 4o kgs less than me comfortably wearing them... :-( I dont mind handing them all over to her, if I find few for myself, somewhere :-)
Ulla Popken in Royal Plaza. They have some really nice gear. Apparently they are going to have a one day sale at some stage this month so even if you go in and have a look and put yourself on the phone list.
therez one store for plus size in city center -cant remember name...will check and let u know
Bhs in Landmark
sizes up to 22
Ulla Popken in Royal Plaza, Evans in Villagio and Landmark, H&M in Villaggio all have clothing and shoes :)
Also Splash has a selection of large sizes.
Try Ponto Roma (or Pont Roma )i think just after Mango (left hand side) in villagio.. very nice things in there, not that expensive. i mean no different then BHS, NEXT... etc.
but try the British stores too. as they take into consideration the length also (which i love) since i have long legs, and am not on the slim side either.
As for shoes. i guess stay away from the pins... lol.
get some nice wedge heals, thick heals, or since its summer, all the nice flats and sandals that are out there.
There is a place in Royal Plaza on the first floor... I can't remember the name of the store. Wallis in Villaggio has larger sizes. As for shoes, we're both out of luck on that one. However, I have been able to order shoes online from zappos or endless using an Aramex address. Pants are hard to find here, however, if you have some items that you like, you can usually find a decent tailor who can replicate them for fairly inexpensive. I can recommend my tailor if you are interested. I have had several items made and I'm happy with them.
