Bonmarche
might not be a regular destination for plus size ladies, but recently I was
asked to have a look at the AW range on their website and I was really
impressed. Not at the very fore-front of plus size fashion, but certainly a
very worthy competitor, Bonmarche offer some fabulous pieces for the season
including an exclusive collection with David Emanuel.
As a
designer, David Emanuel understands the struggle that plus size women often
face when shopping for winter essentials and finding wardrobe staples that will
flatter their shapes. I've chosen my top pick’s from his Bonmarche collection –
all of which are available on the website.
Maxi Dress with Pearl Trim £39.50
This elegant
Maxi dress with pearl trim is ideal for Christmas parties. I love the detailed
neck line with a pearl trim and also a silk ribbon belt to give waist
definition. Bonmarche evening dresses like
this one certainly do not disappoint. Also available in black.
Ponte Print Dress £28
If you’re
more of a classic LBD kinda gal why not go for this lace
detail Ponte dress. I love the
lace overlay on this and the short sleeves.
Rose Print Kimono Jacket £38
This Rose
Print Kimono jacket is an ideal cover-up if you’re afraid to show off your
arms. I love the bright rose detail and would be tempted to wear this with some
tailored trousers when I’m out for cocktails with the girls.
One of the
things that shocked me most about Bonmarche were the great prices. I tracked
down a beautiful knotted lace dress for only £35 and a Chanel-esque tweed
jacket for £22. I've actually been trying to find a smart tweed jacket for a
while and I think this may just be the one. My favourite item from the site has
to be this AMAZING glitter/velour dress. I like to think of this as Grandma - chic. It looks as though it’s stepped right
out of an 80’s TV show, which I think is why I love it. Huge shoulder pads AND
glitter – bang on.
L: Rose Glitter Velour Dress £29
R: Lace Knot Dress £35
Textured Classic Jacket £22

I have NOT reviewed these products in person.
Bon Marche is the last place I'd think to look for nice clothes tbh but I'm surprised! I really do like the tweedy style jacket!
