Cliff Notes: ZM is a pissed off fatty.



WTF Macy's why would you not carry the plus size dresses in your stores? Not one store in the greater Seattle area had any of the 12 dress styles I checked on in stock, regardless of color! Ranting

So out of frustration and a lack of trust in Macy's stock system, I ordered the same dress in three different sizes, hoping one of them will be the right fit.

Just keep them away from your cats otherwise you won't be able to return it to Nordstroms.

laugh out loud

The frustrating part is Nordstroms and the Ralph Lauren website both had the same dress on sale for $70 cheaper than Macy's, but neither showed the dress in a plus size. So I'm still not sure if Macy's is really sending me a plus size or if they screwed up the stock online and those are really misses sizes. Dontknow

Do they sell girdles in XXXXL size?

The 16 misses fit other than the cleavage area was a bit snug over the double DD's. Didn't like that my tummy stuck out a bit too but no way am I wearing a girdle for an all day wedding.

laugh out loud Actually, I did a bra fitting recently, the fitter said I was really a DDD but the DDD bras were just a smidge too big for the girls.

hug Thanks! If this doesn't work, I'm SOL, as time is running out. It's really hard to find a formal dress when you're 5'3" and have a big rack, no one seems to design for that body type, at least not in formal wear. Annoyed
