Fashionable clothes, particularly of 'trendy' brands tends to be designed either to fit a stick insect or someone of really 'average' proportions.
I'm not fat, or chubby, infact I am very slim but I have quite long legs, 34 inch in fact, and trying to find a trouser length in my size from the high street can be a nightmare - I have around a 30-32 waist and trying to find trousers other than a 30 waist 30 leg or 32 waist 32 leg is often impossible! Not all of us have standard legs! Likewise I have quite long arms and so although a top might fit me across the chest and around my tum the sleeves are often a little bit too short! |

It's a bit of a cliche I suppose but sometimes catalogues specifically for people size 14 and over (like Simply Be, or similar) have some nice things, I've been told

ASOS have launched a new 'Curve' range, I know that because they twittered about it.

Try River Island, great clothes which are also fashionable plus they go up to XXL for men and size 18 for women.

Burtons do quite good sizes for bigger men, I have got my dad a few birthday shirts from there |

It's funny how quick you are to defend yourself, are you worried people will think you are fat and you buy from their yourself?

Finding jeans to fit you when you're below average height is near enough mission impossible.
No, I don't want to have to cut the bottoms off and re-hem, thank you very much ![]()
