The A-Z Of Plus Size Brands In Australia
If you range between a size 8 to 12 in Australia, you rarely have much of a problem finding clothing, sizes 14 and 16 still aren't that hard to find either - but once you hit a size 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 or 30 - your options can seem like they're seriously low. But fear not my gorgeous, Effortless Bitches.
I've been making lists again and from the reaction to our last curvy girls post where I made a lengthy list of brands you can shop with for formalwear if you're a size 16 to 22 in Australia (which you can have a geez at here), I decided to make another one!
This list is from A-Z and will give you a brief description of what each one sells and will provide you with a hit list of stylish brands for your next shopping trip!
