Anthropologie

I looove them. Always have. Finally they are in Canada but only in Toronto and Edmonton. Why would they would get a store before Vancouver I wonder.

Wish I could live in their world. Anyway, to live in this beautifully dressed, furnished and accessorized world I would have to be a size 12 or smaller. Late one night in a fit of passion I wrote them a letter. ( See Below ) They answered me!

Also I decided to try and find something on line and it was great they actually do have a few pieces that are XL and I found them by shopping by size. I also love that they post reviews of each item which helped me decide wether to splurge or not. It was almost as good as being there, with the exception of having to pay duty it was a great experience. We'll see if they fit. I'll post photos.
Here are some pieces I tried on on my last visit. They were all just a wee bit too small except for the black and white shirt which reminded me of a Poirot design.

By Common Threads. I so wish this would of fit!

I love your store for 10 years now, I love the clothes you have but have never been able to buy anything to wear other than accessories because your sizes are so small. I wear a 14/16 depending on the cut of the clothes. Women my size have money to spend and would gladly spend it on the beautiful designs you feature IF they covered the forgotten size range of us ladies who are not quite plus size but not a 12.

Please Please Please, some of the pieces would translate.
