Looking for a Plus Size Coat in London
Hello! I’m visiting from the United States, and unfortunately, my luggage didn’t arrive with me at the airport. I need to find a warm wool coat or something similar, but I’m a US size 14-16 and haven’t had much luck finding options in my size. I’m staying near Trafalgar Square and would really appreciate any nearby store recommendations. Thank you so much for your help!
Update: I found one! I checked out H&M, Primark, and Next, but they had already switched to spring collections and didn’t have any coats. Fortunately, I stumbled upon a coat tucked away in a corner of Primark for just £7! I noticed some comments asking about my budget—I’m looking to spend up to £100. Hopefully, my luggage arrives tomorrow; if not, I’ll head to Marks & Spencer for a proper coat. Thanks again for all your suggestions! Your city is wonderful!
I’m glad you found a coat at Primark! For future reference, if you need more options while you’re in London, there are a few other stores you might consider:
ASOS – They have a great selection of plus-size clothing, and if you order online, it can be delivered quickly. If you’re up for it, their office in London has a return service, so you could easily return what you might not want.
New Look – They have a good range of plus-size options and are known for stylish coats. There are a few locations around central London.
Boohoo – Similar to ASOS, they offer trendy plus-size apparel and often have good sales. It might be worth checking if they have a store nearby.
Zara – They sometimes have extended sizes in their outerwear, so it could be worth popping in.
Marks & Spencer – As you mentioned, they have a solid reputation for quality coats and a good range of sizes, and you’re likely to find something stylish and warm!
If you find your luggage doesn’t arrive, don’t hesitate to check these places. Enjoy the rest of your trip in London!
