    Hi Have you looked in Debenhams? They go upto a 22 I think and they have small sizes as well. If you can get one in the sale they are reasonable.

    my bridesmaid has her dress from florence and fred I think it it they do plus size from tesco? but we got it off ebay. Luckily though she's my maid of honour not bridesmaid and my little girl and h2b's little girl have proper bridesmaidy dresses that are the same as each others. Did have problems getting a dress though I think it's a 20 as well but watch out for the cut and shape as it may not flatter either!

    I was going to suggest Debenhams too, thats where I got my bridesmaids dresses from and they're lovely :o) Oh by the way, I was a size 20 a matter of weeks ago, I'm now an 18 and have lost a stone just by joining weight watchers online. I've got a borderline underactive thyroid but its worked wonders for me. Perhaps you can suggest that to her? xx

    they had 25% off all debut dresses last time I looked and I know they're having another upto 25% off sale this weekend - if you get a debenhams card you can get another 10% off the sale prices so you can save a fortune! I got my dresses for £57 each instead of £85 by buying them when the offer was on xxx

    what colours you looking for? as the other girls have said debs is great bhs also do 20's, infact a fair few shops do these days. im a 20 myself and to be honest never have a problem in finding pretty dresses. also bay of e dresses go up to 20 and beyond and light in the box do too. look online at catalogue stores too i got mine from very and they go up to 20, its just what your used to looking for i suppose.

    Monsoon also do bigger sizes as I've had some 18/20 dresses from there but sometimes you have to have them ordered in. You could always have them made? Mine are costing me £150 max to be made to measure and they are fully lined and also full length and that is from a local dress maker. The younger one is going to be £70. They are £120 odd in Debs and BHS for the adults and you don't get the choice, colours, sizes that you want and still have to have them adjusted if they don't fit properly.
