Over at...

youlookfab Ms. Angie is talking the changes at Ann Taylor...

A more fashion forward Ann Taylor

While I agree with Ms. Angie that AT has made some interesting updates to their usually dependable, but somewhat uninspired classic offerings, I do beg to differ on her comment that they offer a "wide assortment of sizes". Basically they offer regular sizes only up to an 18 (And I'll bet dollars to donuts that they don't even carry the size 18 in their stores!) and in petties only up to an 16P! NOT my idea of a wide range of sizes, which is probably why I don't feature the store here very often.

I tend to favor retailers that offer a truly wide range of size choices (Talbots, J Jill and Liz Claiborne New York, to name a few) because I find 50+ women run the gambit of sizes!

I SOOO agree with you! There's nothing worse than clothing that doesn't fit! Ann Taylor's size 18 is actually a missy 16; if you need the extra inch to make a jacket hang correctly, you need a Women's size, and Ann Taylor just won't do. I won't even buy my accessories from stores that don't carry my size!
