Plus Size Shopping in Bangkok
27 Apr 2008 • Overseas, Where To ShopI receive an email from Liann, asking me where is good to do plus size shopping in Bangkok. I, of course, shared with her the information. But I thought it will be good for you guys to know also…Below is the email conversation between me and Liann. Hope it will give you an idea of where to shop in Bangkok as well. But I must say, stay alert and keep your eyes open cos its easy to miss the plus sizes among the many usual shops!
Hi Erica
Great job done on the amazing BAB website. I love the fun layout of things and regularly check out your products.
I was wondering if you could recommend me some good plus size shops to shop for shoes and clothes in Bangkok, as I will be heading there next week, and I hope to be able to pick out some shoes/clothing for myself, instead of standing by when my smaller sized friends shop and shop! So miserable!
Thanks and I really appreciate your help.
Regards
Liann
Hi, Liann.
Thanks for the great comments.
You can pop by to Platinam Mall and Indra Shopping Centre (they do wholesale there). They are quite close by. Your friends can shop there too. There’s a lot of stuff there. However, for plus size shops, there’s only a handful. The thing is I can’t recall where exactly are the shops. I only remember where they are when I am there. In Platinam Mall, it should be the 2nd, 3rd or 4th floor at the corner. The other plus size shop is called The Fat Story (it’s quite pricey here), you can find it at Suan Lum Night Market or Bo Bae Wholesale Center (this is not well-known among tourists). As for shoes, there’s this only 1 shop in the Old Siam Square, beside MBK, its on the 2nd or 3rd floor, beside a hairdresser.
Hope the above helps. Have fun!
Regards, Erica
