Hello, I am a plus size lady coming to live in Jeddah. If I am thinking in terms of a range of 14-20 in US sizes will I be able to find my size shopping. I live in Korea and these past few years the only thing I find are socks and accessories! Is their a good variety? How much more expensive is it for clothes than it would be in Canada or USA?

Hope that your stay in Jeddah will be a good and smooth one.

To answer your question, most shops will have up to size 18-20 especially brands like RedTag, Center Point, City Max (but not Zara, Paul and Bear) and then you will have some brands targeting larger women like Evens which is a British brand (I think) that has sizes up to 32.
