SueOverend Posted October 14, 2007 #1 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Can anybody recommend any good shops that I should visit to buy a plus size evening dress - I'm struggling to find what I want in the UK. We have a full day in NYC before we board for our cruise and I'd love to get a new dress. I don't know the names of any chains to target. Any help would be much appreciated. Obviously mail order is not an option. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megr1125 Posted October 14, 2007 #2 Share Posted October 14, 2007 There are lots of places and I am sure others will have more ideas, but i would start with Macy's on 34th street. Flagship store for this chain in the US and that would be a good place to start. Also Bloomingdales on 59th street. http://www1.macys.com/store/locator/index.ognc?action=locatorSearch&ZipCode=10001&City=&State=NOSELECTION&LOCATOR_BUTTON.x=24&LOCATOR_BUTTON.y=5 (the top store in the list) http://www1.bloomingdales.com/store/index.ognc?action=STORE_DETAIL&lstRegion=all&storeId=40002&x=11&y=10 Or Bergdorf Goodman at 754 5th Avenue http://www.berdorfgoodman.com For a good discount store try Century 21....nice store, some great bargains...designer clothes at good discounts, but since it is a discounter, you never know what they will have--but worth a look. If you will be in Lower Manhattan (not sure what your plans are, but it is near Ground Zero) it would be worth a trip....I used to go when I worked on the New Jersey side some years back...great stuff http://www.c21stores.com/#/store-locations/?store=manhattan (above link is about the store and how to get there) http://www.c21stores.com/#/store-directory/ (above is the directory of the store) well that is a start.......i am sure that others who spend more time in NY will offer ideas too! but, those are the places I would start! happy hunting!

megr1125 Posted October 14, 2007 #3 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Looks like you will be here in Novenmber, so you may find some good sales too! (Plus most of the stores should be decorated for the Holidays...which is always lovely!) enjoy your trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamaofami Posted October 14, 2007 #4 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Lord and Taylor has a wonderful plus size department. They are on 5th avenue and about 38th street. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smeyer418 Posted October 14, 2007 #7 Share Posted October 14, 2007 http://www.monifc.com/m-boutiques.php also do a google search for plus size dresses in Manhattan.... all the above are good ideas. At Macys at 34th street if you go to the Mezzanine customer service and show an out of area license or passport they will give you a day sales pass for 13% off almost everything....sale prices included.
