Julie I once sent an e-mail of complaint to M&S to say that all of the 'larger' sized clothes were mostly available in boring black or white and that the lovely PER UNA range didnt cater for the more 'comfortable' lady. They sent me a reply saying that 'George' who designs the PER UNA range felt that his styles wouldnt be suitable for the older lady,,!!!! How did they know how old i was ???!!! So off i wrote,,,saying that lots of my friends under 40 wanted to wear the PER UNA rang but were unable to find anything to fit them,,,How come they think that if you're fat,,,,you're old..?? How i wish i had kept that e-mail...it smacks of age-ism. |

Claire that's terrible. I'm a size 16/18 (don't know what size per una go up too) and I'm not 40 for a few years yet. It's not only ageist it's also sizeist (new word lol) Bigger women want to look fashionable and stylish too. |

Anne sounds about right lol. All I wanted though was a basic black t-shirt or multi way type. The one I got though is nice :-) |

Not a problem I've ever faced, being at the opposite end of the spectrum!! Always look wistfully at the Bravissimo shop though as the lingerie is so pretty. Store list online. Daisy |
