Adorable eighties-does-fifties colour-block sundress in a generous size to fit UK size 18 and larger!
Fab gaberdine look a-line skirt with gold sailor style buttons in UK 16, my guess would be late 70s/early 80s.
Light blue denim original mod dress in US 14
1960s fitted leaf-pattern day dress with box pleats - one of my favorite features! Looks to be great quality and fabric. US 16.

Plus-Size Vintage Flares & Bell-Bottoms
I don't know about you but I'm obsessed with flared trousers of all kinds: timeless, flattering and oh-so forties and seventies (my favourite style decades). These plus-size picks are all available now on etsy.
These fan-dabby indigo flares could do with an ironing but look to be in great vintage condition and are a generous plus-size 36" waist.
Another pair of original indigo flares from the 70s, and these look like possibly the perfect pair! Maverick brand with a large 33.5" waist.
Peach! Such a cool colour for these US size 14 flares.
These are utterly FAB! Listing says they are from the 1930s, but they sure are timeless! Extra-large vintage palazzo pants.
Authentic plus-size vintage US Navy 'utility' flared trousers in a 32" waist.
