  2. You can get bigger sizes at pretty much all good stores. Honestly, the plus sized clothing stores have really bad clothes. Their cuts and style in very unflattering and will do no good for your figure.

    You can go to Zara and Mango at Lower Parel Phoenix Mills Mall (Palladium) and get nice clothes. Vero Moda also has varied size options.

    Would suggest you also check this article and Gabifresh's blog: http://styledestino.blogspot.com/2011/09/not-slave-to-skinny.html
