Re: I hope u guys can help!!! Plus size evening wear!!!
Hi- my mil is a plus size too and we went to a lot of places w/ little sucess.
check out r&k bridal in the city. I went there yesterday and am going to take my mil there for her dress.
She is a size 18-20 and they had her size w/ good prices.
R & K 212-947-1155 318 w. 39th St. bet. 8th & 9th Ave.
call them and make sure they have her size, but there are samples for them to try on

Re: I hope u guys can help!!! Plus size evening wear!!!
JC Penney, Macy's, Sears, they all have plus size evening wear. One great place to try is Catherine's. I have 4 people in my family (including MOB) that got beautiful dresses there for a huge discount. I know there is one on Old Country Road across from Roosevelt Field, I don't know where else. Good luck!!

Alixgirl-
I got out of going to work tomorrow and am taking my mil to R&K- I will let you know what I find.
We wemt to:
Lord & Taylor in Walt Whitman- nothing
Bloomies in Walt Whitman - " "
Estelles dressy dresses - very little in her size
Oh so Dressy- not much
Macys- a little pricey for her
I stopped in R&K for a minute and they seemed to have a lot of samples in her size.
I will report back

Re: I hope u guys can help!!! Plus size evening wear!!!
Thanks Nov.Bride. I have been to Macys, Lord and Taylor, the wedding plaza in Baldwin, Lilletes, Bridal Reflections, Davids Bridal. I'm sure I have left out a few. My FMIL is over a size 24 so alot of the designer labels have stopped making that size according to Macys.

Re: I hope u guys can help!!! Plus size evening wear!!!
I looked on Catherine's web-site & they say they go up to a size 34.
The web-site says these are only $15.00!!
