Hey Everyone,
Today, I got a catalog in the mail that I have never seen or heard of before. It is called: "Style Midnight Velvet", and it features plus size clothing up to size 3X or 24W.
It's basically uber feminine, frilly, mostly dressy stuff. Some items are very over the top, BUT there were a few which I would love to get. Their prices are on the steeper end, which might very well be worth it (depending on actual quality). The thing that got me interested was the fact that many of the items are silk, which as you all know, we (as fat women) are generally not allowed to buy.
Here is the link to the site: http://www.midnightvelvet.com/Midnight-Velvet-Style/index.cat. Below, are some things that I thought were gorgeous.

Check out the tailoring on the back of the jacket!!! I think I'm in love! :smitten:

The dress isn't really me, but I thought it was absolutely gorgeous.
So, all this made me think that since it is so hard to find decent plus size clothing, if any of you come across little known catalogs/online-retailers, maybe you'd want to post them here to share with others. Even if it's something you can't picture wearing yourself, it could be just the thing for someone else. If the thread proves to be a useful resource/popular enough, maybe it can be made sticky. Just wanted to throw it out there, see what you think.
