Hi, I'm relatively new to this forum (and Malaysia). I am a 48 year old Brit living in Kota Damansara. Unfortunately, I am a fatty. On top of that I'm pretty tall too (178cm). I've tried Ms Read. I was very unimpressed. All I want is some plain t.shirts and shorts and skirts. They seemed to be aiming for the fat woman who likes floaty polyester. Does anyone know anywhere else I could try? failing that, recommend a tailor who could copy a couple of skirts I have.

Hi, there. I used to see the brand Scarlet Plus for a little chubby girl. You might try them.

Someone above (post #5) already suggested Flow (i passed by at KLCC)that's why I didn't. Looks not bad unlike designs like Ms Read that TS doesn't like. Isetan ones I think are in-house brands.

Lots of major retailers like Marks & Spencer and Debenhams would have things that suit your needs. On another note, and please don't take this the wrong way, if you have the time, do make time to exercise. Not only you would feel better, you will look better and have a better general well being. Not to mention more choices with a smaller dress size.  Have fun shopping!
