Any over 5'11", plus size curvy girls (Lane Bryant, Catharines)? I am :)

[Alanea]

I'm 6 foot 290 pounds, size 3x 20 bottoms, 22-24 tops size 12w shoes, i get most of my clothing from woman within, lane bryant, burlington ,kolhs, and walmart. shoes online usally as most stores don't seem to carry my size, altho payless has some.

I'm on the edge of plus size - 5' 11" tall in stocking feet, and 190 or so pounds. 36 inch waist but a 40-C chest. I wear a size 14 to 16 skirt but an 18 to 20 top and size 11 shoes. I can often get away with a 1x or 2x women's top, and sometimes just a Large, rather than going to the 'plus size' product lines. Haven't tried shopping at Lane Bryant yet. I walk by that store pretty often when mall walking, but the clothes they have had on display just haven't whistled at me yet.

I'll happily wear 3" heels, and if people think I'm too tall, I really don't care. I know GG's that are much taller.

6'5", 230 lbs. here. I get most of my panties from Lane Bryant or Bali but clothing would have to come from Walmart or I've ordered from Glamour Boutique as well. My goal is to lose enough weight to get back into Victoria's Secret, but I worry that those days are behind me.

Hi Charlene, I'm 6'0 220# and wear either a ladies size 14 or a 16 pants or jeans ,
most of my tops are 16/18 or a 1X, 44-C or 44-D bra, Dress is an 18 or20 ,
ladies size 13 heels and my shoulder length Blond wig.~~~ >Orchid ...... <Triple Pierced

[Cheryl T]

5'11" and about 195# here. I like some Lane Bryant clothing, but typically shop Macy's and Lord & Taylor sale racks. I just think they have nicer styles and the clothes are a bit more tailored. I had some great luck finding things in the sale racks at great prices.

Size wise I'm 18-20 tops (42B) and bottoms are misses 14. I stay mainly with separates as it's so hard to find dresses that fit that range and look like they aren't just bags. Also it gives me lots of flexibility in outfits with fewer pieces.
Shoes are mostly 11W and range from flats and sneakers to 3" heels.

[Caden Lane]

It took me losing damn near 200 pounds before I felt comfortable enough to go out dressed as Caden. I was 6'02 Tall, 447 pounds, size 14 feet, built like an overweight linebacker. I've since lost two hundred, I wear a size 13 shoe, which is far easier to fit than a 14, take it from me, I'm a size 20/22 or 22/24 depending on the shop. (By the way, Long Tall Sally has he most big sized shoe options I've found) I started wearing a 52B bra, and I'm now wearing a 46D, oddly, I'm still using the same prosthetics. I'm about to go down yet another band size very soon.

I adore the outfits at Lane Bryant and Catherine's. They have been my saviors as far as finding fashionable stuff I can wear. Well that and eBay. As for Brandy, you cannot give up on your sizing issues. I'm willing to bet there is stuff out there which will fit you. There are lots of conversion charts which will help you find the comparative size which corresponds with mens sizes. I wasted a lot of money on stuff that didn't work as well. But once you get it dialed in, you will enjoy thigns like you've never enjoyed them before. You will feel like your world has opened up to you.

Ever & Always,
Caden Lane

Caden- your amazing and i celebrate with you. Keep your good thing going.

I was up to a 20/22w and more pounds also. Glad i left it behind

Enjoying that new world with you in spirit!

Hugs

PS - i checked out your website. Looks i'll be spending sometime there. You look fab!

[Barbara Black]

I'm 6'0", somewhere between 220 and 230. I have the same gut problem that most do, it's too large. I usually take a size 18 on top, partially due to my shoulders. I can fit a 16 below usually, but sometimes not. My feet aren't too large, a ladie's size 11, which is difficult, but not impossible to find. I like about a three inch heel, but haven't tried any spikes yet, so I don't know if I can walk in them. I do most of my shopping at thrift stores and at rummage sales. I'm more comfortable looking through women's clothing at the rummage sales that in the thrift stores, but with some friends with me, I'm sure I'll be more apt to search much longer.

[MissTee]

Talbots plus, Lane Bryant, Catherine's, Full Beauty, etc. I'm a whole lot of lovely. Oh, and the only thing in Victoria's Secret that fits me is their entry way.

[Robin414]

I'm 6'1" and I find I can get into pretty much anything at long tall Sally. They ship to everywhere I think as well. I'm a large or size 14 tip and size 10 (Ca) in jeans (now at least, body still changing so I'm holding off on shopping until September, good fit, reasonable quality, but not cheap😮

[sometimes_miss]

At six four, and right now 285 (weight fluctuates as i diet and go off), over the years I've picked up what I want from various places. xdresser.com had jersey material maids uniforms a few years back, which were stretchy and so fit me no matter what size I am. sexyschoolgirlskirts.com from Seneca clothing was my only source for plaid pleated skirts until I found Torrid. Lane Bryant now goes under several names and has also bought out Roamans and a few other catalog sellers for big and tall women, and I found my cute peter pan collar plain white tops there a few years ago too. My current favorite bras are the keyhole design, formerly available at Lane Bryant but now at shopnational.com. With size 15 to 16 feet, I get my shoes from various places, Pleaser shoes has lots of designs but no standard sizing; one style size 14 will fit, another requires 16, and some size 15 are so tight I'd have to cut my toes off just to get into them. Amazon is good for those so I can return what doesn't fit. Ebay has lots of things, and most important, has numerous vendors who will custom sew any of their designs in huge sizes. What you'll have to be careful of is making your measurements very, very carefully, because there's no way to make any alterations; I usually add about an inch or two to various measurements (such as sleeve thickness, I've got overly large biceps which I guess folks in China can't understand so anyone here should note that if you're going to order from there) everything just to be sure. Most of thier designs are then manufactured in cotton material and so will shrink in the wash too, so consider that as well. I have picked up several gothic lolita dresses, as well as a cute sailor girl school uniform dress from a chinese vendor as well. They even make custom size 16 shoes for me, my last purchase was a sailor moon 'jupiter' dress and shoes. Thigh high stockings, Leg Avenue makes queen size with white bows that sell for about $7 a pair on amazon or ebay which stay up rather well for casual wear, but of you're going to walk around a lot you'll need garters. and of course Birchplaceshop.com for sissy dresses and lacy short maids uniforms.

LOL! That would make a great tag line! thanks for the chuckles.

[Judith96a]

Yup, 6'0.5" and definitely 'curvy'. Unfortunately the curves are stereotypically male! And I LOVE 3.5" - 4.5" heels. How mad is that?

[Lacy PJs]

...and of course Birchplaceshop.com for sissy dresses and lacy short maids uniforms.

I'm about the exact same size. I've looked at those but didn't think that their size guidelines would "fit" this frame. Or, do you go the custom route?

OMG I am not alone. I get so envious of the 5'7" petite girls. I am 6'1" 270 lbs. 48 c 38w 13-14 shoes with a long torso. The quest to find clothes that fit and look good is tough. It is a separates kind of world for me. Dresses for the most part fall way funny. Shoes are getting better. There seems to be more large sizes being produced and they are not all drag queen shoes.

Hi Vicky!
You are no alone and be happy in you are becoming!
The average 5'6 GG so much the idea of the perfect 'pass model' not taking away any of that.

Many us of can find our own 'glam' self in who we are.

It takes awhile to go down that road on your journey and it comforts me to know that we have each other to support in this.

Sometimes I will see a nice pic of a CD or TS dress in cute business attire and spot on yes they are truly a sight, 'passing' easily.

We (i do) have to remind myself of my self image dressed up and smile inside knowing that I'm not that size 8 or 12 person.

This girl has learned to be satisfied and comfortable in her own skin. My confidence went into the stars when this happened about 5 years ago.

Hugs!
Charlene

[Candice June Lee]

I am 6`3or4 215 pounds or so now. 38 inseam, 40 at the chest 38 at the waist. Finding anythjng is tough for me. I used to be thinner and a square frame and silouet. Large breasts look funny, small breasts now leave a gut out. I am intersted in the cowgirl look since i am from texas originally. I make due with my frame and recently been working towards more passing.
Any suggestions?

[Marguarite]

Hi Charlene, 5' 11" 210 lbs , size 2X with forms, but have found the joy of shape wear. Heard mention on this site of a Latex vest waist cincher ( Hourglass Angel ).
With that little miracle I can fit in 1X , my own fluff pushed around to small C cup and with a little hip padding, have a passable figure. Saving grace is size10 feet,
the shoe possibilities are endless, not the pocketbook. As you know, in Florida it's not just the humidity, it is the HEAT.

[Caden Lane]

Thank you Charlene! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Always nice to know someone enjoyed reading about my journeys.

Ever & Always,
Caden Lane

I am 6'2" and about 240-250 lbs... yes, Lane Bryant has made quite a bit of money off of me! Lol The good news is that my girlfriend shops there as well, so I always know what's on sale, etc!

[Lorileah]

c'mon ladies...go with what you got

At 6’8″, she is an extremely tall woman. The average height of a WNBA player is around 6’0″ tall.

[april_lynn]

I am 6ft 265lb and have often shoppend at LB. In fact, my only outing was to LB and the SA actually commented on my sweater being from their line the previous year and that she loved it on me. I have found that their panties tend to fit about the best for me being a little wider in the crotch than most. I have also become quite fond of Old Navy. They have some great deals and have gotten some great dresses, jeans, swimwear, shorts, and tanks all pretty cheap. Their XXL usually fits me and they have plus size online too. Even better they have a good selection of talls. This was a great post to get to know more girls like me on here!

At 6'2" and 272 lbs, more athletic than average build. I have found that dress size 18(UK) and 11 shoes are a good fit. My 34" legs look fab in stockings and tights. I use body/shapewear to shape my body, using hip pads and my own homemade wide elastic belt(without any buckles) that under a body/shapewear, and butt panties. I manage to achieve a feminine 42-38-44, which to me looks lovely. I love the feel of dresses against my body and have found that The Kim & Co dresses are superb. They feel great and fit my body perfectly because of their stretchy/slinky material. My ex-wife used to buy Kim & Co off of QVC on the TV. I soon discovered that even a size S/S had enough stretch in it to fit my frame. I now have a large wardrobe of Kim & Co with sizes from S through to L. Great for the larger person.

[Heelios]

I am about 6' 2" and 12 and a half stone (whatever that is in pounds!) and have always been relatively slim. I have in the past few years developed a bit of a gut tho which I am starting to really dislike especially now I am dressing more. It just looks rubbish!

I live in the UK and my shops of choice are Long Tall Sally which specialise in tall women's clothing and large shoes and Next also have a good range of clothes but their shoes don't go up to the UK11 I wear. It's hard to find large shoes that I like so a lot of my collection comes from the US via Ebay.
