The plus sizes still don't really fit until I get to 2X or 3X but then while my shoulders and chest fit, the rest is way too loose. I sometimes take something I otherwise love to a seamstress and have her resize it to fit me but that is spendy!

I have threatened to parade around in maternity wear to see what happens but haven't quite had the nerve yet!

Yeah that is one of the major issues with online buying. NO ONE understands female sizing because it does not make sense.

Hmm, learn to sew? You did say you needed another direction to go. Maybe you could get into fashion design, and you would have a unique perspective.

I have seriously considered maternity wear also...my tummy likes to grow and shrink without the rest of me.
