Hello!
I am sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section but I am looking for advice.
I need some new dresses- casual as well as going out. I'm a size 18/20 and I've scoured the internet for some decent dresses but I'm struggling to find any. I mostly shop at boohoo, shein and new look but even that can be a hit or miss. I've included some dresses that I do like.

Lady Vintage? Just to note the bust sizes can vary hugely between styles (some suit bigger boobs, others are better for smaller) but they do good reductions at the sales.

I'd recommend yours and new look. On the cheaper end boohoo, but their sizes can be a minefield.
Also h&m is really good at the moment and I'm the same size as you and get in a lot of their straight sizes, depending on the style of dress.
I'd avoid in the style, it's over priced tat.

I got a really good black long t-shirt from Shein, it’s been washed a worn a few times and it’s kept it’s shape and condition. Might be worth checking their dresses out.

Next online do some bigger sizes and Dorothy Perkins too. I’ve had a few items from New Look as well.

I’ve had some very similar dresses from asos curve but i find their sizes can be a bit weird, i had the same dress in 2 colours and they both fitted differently.

Yours Clothing is my go to for anything. I think their sizes are bigger than what they are elsewhere though.
I think there's still a sale on atm too.
New Look is another good one x

If you are confident of your size in the labels that you like, I find Vinted and ebay are great. Im a tall size 20-22 & personally love labels like Monsoon for dresses, but I never buy them new as they are pricey. Can always resell if I don’t like or they don’t fit.

From my friends’s experience, ASOS Curve, H&M and Mango/Violetta by Mango do nice dresses in your size 🙂 Just make sure you try them on or look at the size guide before buying, sizing can be tricky x

Phase 8 and Monsoon are my favourite as I’m a similar size. They’re really flattering and although a little pricey so worth it as they last for years.

Just found a new Australian company called Salty Crush, who apparently ship to UK. They have some really nice dresses, mostly flowery, a bit hippy.
