Advantages: good fitting shoes and jewelry

Disadvantages: tops are short, and it's overpriced

Evans is a clothing shop for larger ladies. The clothes range from a size 14 up to a size 32. The also do shoes from a size 4 up to size 10 and in a range of widths up to EEE.

As a larger lady, you don't have a great deal of choice from the high street anyway, but Evans, who are specifically aimed at this area of the market are rubbish. The clothes are all hugely overpriced and frumpy looking. The one thing in particular i don't like is that the majority of the tops are too short. I would rather keep all the lumps and bumps under cover.

Evans shops are few and far between, there is 1 in my town, but it's quite a small one. If I'm looking for something specific I normally would go to a larger Evans which is about 40 miles away. Another problem that I often come across is that they do not always have all the sizes available.

There are a few things about Evans that I like. The footwear, although they can often be overpriced, I think they are a good fit for me, I always try to buy sale shoes and boots, they have some sort of discount on most of the time (there's 20% off footwear today online). I also like the jewelry (only when it's in the sale). I prefer the chunky plastic rings as the metal ones always leave a green mark on your skin.

Evans has a tall section and a petites section. These are not great, they have a very limited selection.

Summary: Try New Look or Marks and Spencer

I have to say- and I used to work for customer services for Evans/Arcadia, they really don't ever seem to get enough stock in all sizes, and I really don't know why! we used to get so many complaints!

The next catalogue also does larger sizes, but you rarely see them in store :o)
