I have the same problem with plus size "petite" clothing. It ticks me off to have to pay as much as 10 dollars more for a pair of jeans because there is what, an extra four inches of cloth in the seat of the pants? and they are marked "petite" and I still have six inches of extra fabric on the bottoms I have to roll up or get hemmed or some damn thing. I ought to be able to send that fabric in for my 10 dollars back :D
I keep looking at the clothing in our local walmart and then looking at the people walking around me and don't understand why only 1/5 of the clothing selection is for so called plus size (I remember when plus size started at size 20, NOT 14, damned clothing industry) and wonder where are the people buying these clothes other than maybe some 12 year olds? Most of the people I see they clothing would not fit, or it is so trampy people wouldn't be caught dead in it. "family" store. Somehow sweatpants with "juicy" written across the ass in the pre teen department does not strike me as "family" oriented.
