Must admit I thought it was for hoodies, although I saw something of theirs in a shop at Seahouses last year that surprised me. I buy a lot of Maine tunics [I like Maine stuff because it's cotton and I hate synthetic clothing]. I'll definately check it out, Madrigal, cause it's the sort of clothing that I wear. Thanks for pointing it out.

phoenix, I couldn't care less about the label - I just wouldn't even look at a range called Fat Face in the first place. I can't understand why they would call it that!

sad the dresses are too short for mesad

Ooh I do like the butterfly top smile

Ana unless you go around with your labels on full view, no-one will ever know!

(And they do have some nice stuff)

Ana Thu 31-Jan-13 20:54:21

Yes - it's just the name! grin

Or this, supposed to be a dress, but would look nice over leggings. (I like my tops to cover my lumpy thighs!)

Like this, which also comes in a range of plain colours

It's actually a very popular brand, and used to be one of my clients!

Can at first be seen as a younger persons brand, but as Madrigal says, they do a really good line in tops that are both fashionable and flattering. Not the cheapest you will see, but usually sort of mid price.

Nor me!

I can't see how 'Fat Face' would attract customers....confused

gracesmum Thu 31-Jan-13 20:03:15

Yeah- I wonder how many customers that would attract!! grin

Anne58 Thu 31-Jan-13 19:56:34

Better than "Fat A*se" though, graces grin

I regularly pass the one just outside Euston station and always assumed it was for "young things" - will look with greater interest now. (Shame about the name though!)

Hi,
My first posting here! I was looking at the things that should/should not be worn post age 50. I have to recommend Fat Face for flattering tunics and dresses that have sleeves. I have three of theirs and they fit and flatter. Their tops are pretty nifty as well.
