plus size range
I am wearing the 3/4 length leggings (available here). These are possibly the most comfy bottoms i have ever worn, the length is great and they have a little zip pocket in the back. The waist band comes up high, which i like. I am wearing a size 20 and the fit is great. I really wanted a crop style top but they didn't have anything like this in stock so i picked this t shirt (available here) so i opted for this, i wish it was a bit longer, when i was stretching it rides up, but it isn't the biggest issue, i like this top because it is designed to keep you cool and lock in moisture. I know that pilates isn't something that makes you sweaty, but i have also been known to do Zumba or legs, bums and tums and i get hot, so this is great for that. I am wearing the 22 and i would say it is a good fit, it is meant to be tight fitting.
The last item i was sent is this swimming costume (available here). I like to swim. and most of my swimming costumes aren't really designed for doing proper swimming in, i needed something with a bit more support. My mom is going to do some swimming to help with her shoulder post surgery and i said i would join her, so this will be great. I like the back detail as it makes it more fun and less plain. I am wearing the 22, the fit is good everywhere but my bust, where it is a tad low, i could have done with a bit more material to hold them in more, but the fit everywhere else was great.
Overall i was really impressed with Sports direct, the price points are great, as normally sports wear can be quite expensive, the size range could do with extending as it only goes up to a 22 at the moment, also the website needs some work, it isn't that easy to navigate, some of the stuff isn't actually listed in the plus size section and you need to look elsewhere for it, but i'm sure in time this will be sorted.
