If only men knew what a headache buying tights and stockings is when you are a plus size woman.
Most men’s clothes are simple to size but every company that makes tights and stockings seems to have a different woman’s legs in mind when measuring – medium in one range can be small or large in another.
If you are a plus size or curvy woman, TightsPlease (link: www.tightsplease.co.uk) certainly has a stylish collection of styles, colours and deniers to choose from, including full tights, stockings and knee highs, from a number of well-known brands.
The TightsPlease online shop has a tab for every product that describes the sizing in minute detail, but if you are shopping make sure that you check out that what you want is actually in your size.
To determine your tight or stocking size, you need to know your height and hip measurements – and that means no denial and no thinking you’ll squeeze a quart in to a pint pot. Be real, take a tape and measure yourself honestly.
Then, pick a product in the Tights Please store and check the sizing guide before buying.
TightPlease stock hosiery and plus size tights that cater for women of every shape, size and leg length, so somewhere, there’s bound to be a product that matches your needs.
You might have to search a bit – but here’s a tip: Plus size tights and stockings are hidden away under the ‘Specialist Tights’ menu in the navigation – so here’s a quick link that takes you straight to the plus size tights shop.
Some stockings, pull-ups and other products come in plus sizes, but they are not that easy to find – shoppers have to search through each item in each category, which can take a bit of time.
Unfortunately, the site does not allow you to search by size. If you input ‘XL’ in to the search box no products are returned.
