    For the NON conformist (size wise) .... faves

    https://www.dahlal.com/default.aspx?n=1&hs=rhapsody

    So this is my new favorite... the color may still not be good for me, or even the style, but it would fit! I Rarely find one on a site where every measurement would fit me. .. ok maybe a little padding even.

    Love it! That'd look great on you (and me too, but I am NOT buying anymore costumes lol)... is this why you're selling Barbarella? :)

    I wish. I'm just paying regular boring bills with barbarella. Really wish I could sew better. LOL

    I really like some of the new larger sized stuff on Dahlal and I hope they continue to add generously sized portions to their in-stock costumes. What I really appreciate is that even though these have larger cups and bigger hips, the costumes are styled in the same simple, sexy, elegant, and modern shapes that are popular for smaller figures. Its nice to be able to see thicker gals wearing those styles in cuts that fit and flatter. I've been struggling with body image since gaining weight in the past few years and have had to size up many of my costumes. It is inspiring to see that even in a larger size, I have stylish options and don't have to hide my extra belly rolls under layers of fringe. Right now I'm not loving the color palates--very muted and lots of beige-y bland tones, but there is potential.

    Totally agree. Even though many of them don't look great on me personally, it really sucks to have the bra/belt fringe monster as the only option.
