I'm due to visit Orlando in May and I'm hoping to do some shopping. Well, quite a lot of shopping if I'm truthful!! Anyway, I'm quite a tall lady (6'0') so I would really appreciate it if anyone could recommend some good stores. Also, I am a UK size 18-20, so any assistance on plus size shops would also be appreciated.
Thanks.
Not too sure about tall but Dressbarn Woman is a good store for larger sizes and there's a store at http://www.lbvfs.com/mall/Stores2.asp
There's also Bon Worth whose large size fits an 18-22 at the Beall's Outlet Mall which is opposite Siesta Lago on Highway 192.
Also, keep a look out for Capacity Woman (there is one in Florida Mall).
Don't forget Wal-Mart which also sells larger sizes as does Target and K-Mart.
Having said all that, a UK size 18-20 is actually US size 16-18 so you could well find that you don't need a large size store! [msncool]
In the Florida Mall there is August Max which caters for sizes 14+, also New York New York has trousers which are extra long. The dept stores have specialist areas as well - J C Penney also at the Mall and Maceys at the Millenia Mall. You really want a Long Tall Sally type shop which I don't recall seeing, but will have a search and see if anything comes up.
