Francesca wishes to turn our readers’ attention to the sale page at Evans, the plus-size clothing chain in England, which is similar in price-point to Lane Bryant. Few of the items are spectacularly pretty, but there are many good staple items which can come in handy. Many thanks to our internet friends who told Francesca about Evans before she left for London!
Evans has a fairly decent selection in the plus-size “Petite” and “Tall” categories, which Francesca appreciates, being only 5’1″!
Note for American readers: The shipping charge to the USA is only about $20 (presumably per shipment, not per item, but check this.) So if you order a few items, the shipping is worth it. Also remember that sizing works differently in Europe, so use the size chart!
The problem with Evans is, while the price is close to Lane Bryant, the quality is closer to Torrid, or even Walmart. Well made, their clothes are not. But cute! I bought my favorite pair of boots in the whole wide world there–unfortunately, they’ve not pretty much completely fallen apart.
