I’ve found the ultimate Christmas party dress for plus-size girls – it’s subtle and sexy, and only £18
FINDING the perfect party isn't always easy - especailly if you're plus-sized like this fashion fan.
Naomi Native wasn't convinced there would be anything for her at all in Primark, but she picked up a basket to have a look around anyway.
She was instantly shocked by Primark's offerings for curvy shoppers - with the clothing having a wider size range than she expected.
A few items caught Naomi's attention, including a few tops and two midi skirts, but it was a stunning dress that was the real winner.
In the changing room the s shocked the fashionista, who usually wears a size 26, even more.
"If you're still looking for a subtle festive piece, this might be for you.

"And the back is just my favourite part," she said.
The green and black slip dress is not only a wardrobe staple, but it's perfect for any upcoming festive parties.
Part of the fan favourite Rita Ora collection, the dress is described as "an elevated option that'll take you from sophisticated dining to evening drinks with friends."
The product description online continues: "It features a cowl neckline, slender shoulder straps and slip, slip-style silhouette that rests to a midi length.

"The piece is cut from soft material with devore zebra stripes for a subtle all-over pattern that leans into the current animalier trend, style yours with heeled black boots or classic stiletto pumps."
The best part is at just £18, the dress won't break the bank either.
It wasn't just Naomi who was impressed with the fashion find though, the comment section under her viral video was flooded with comments from stunned shoppers.
One said: "That dress was gorgeous on you oh my god."
"I walked past that dress but I think I might need to go back," a second wrote.
A third agreed: "That dress is beautiful on you!"
Meanwhile, others discussed Primark's size range, as not everyone was convinced they'd have larger sizes in stores.
"Just because a store as XL sizes doesn't mean they're always in stock, I usually have to go to a city Primark to get things in my size as the one in my village never has it in stock," one person noted.
But another chimed in: "As a size 18 I've been shopping in Primark since 2008, their sizing has only gotten better but they've been inclusive for a while, also their sizer are defo generous."
And Naomi replied to the commented: "You're so right, I remember really struggling with their sizing when I was younger/smaller.
"Definitely much improved, wouldn't quite say they're inclusive, but definitely generous!"
According to Primark's size guide, the shop does have some items in a 3XL, which is a a size 26-28.

However, many TikTok users pointed out they could rarely find a 2XL in store, let alone a 3XL.
And notably, even Naomi's stunning dress is only available in sizes 6-20 online, even though the size 26 fashion fan could fit into the XL.
Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget
By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor
AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it’s about time that celebrities started catching on too.
For as long as I’ve been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those “I have nothing to wear” moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect.
And I’m definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you’ll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time.
But no matter what, Primark always delivers.
Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores.
While Rita’s not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she’s proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less.
Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards.
With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I’m sure more stars will be following suit soon enough.
