Looking to start clothing chain in NY/NJ Area

The idea is to line up women in varying sizes, and we would all swap clothes amongst ourselves as we shrink. I have 2x sizes, size 22 pants, 2x skirts, size 22-24 shirts from Lane Bryant. I am currently in about a size 18. If there were somone in a 22, I would giv them to her, and someone else would give me 18s. Please reply if you are in the NY Tri-State area and would like to participate.

I have thought about this many times and would be so happy to participate, but unfortunately I am in S. GA!! I do have a friend who has had lapband too and I have given her a lot of my clothes, the only problem is that I have no one to give to me. angry.gif I am down to a size 14 pants and a L top.

Good luck to you in this quest for clothes.

I am a 22 now but anticipate going into an 18/20 quite soon. I have some new clothes, too and would love to participate in this. I live on Long Island.

It's like a chain. Sarah was a 22 and now needs a 20. She gives the 22 away to Jane, and Jill who is now a 12 has 20.

So basically u would wait ur turn. I get it now

I have a sister and friend who had bypass the three of us did just this! We all think it's a good idea except for tastes like I dress business casual very low key and my friend and sis are very bold color people so it'd be great to have a plays closet for plus sized women

I just ended up buying lots of clothing on eBay for cheap. Some friends at work have me their "fat clothes" after they had their babies. some skinny people keep lots of different sizes on reserve, too :)

Omg yes great idea I would love to. I'm in long island
