Womens section needs a major update

[simplispecial]

I always look by size first as I often don't now what I want. I may be looking for a dress but be willing to settle for skirt & top or dress pants & top. Then again a nice big bib for dinner is probably what I need.

Here, use this bed sheet... I've found it's the only thing that's really up to the job.

Years ago when one of my kids was in grade school, the Invention Convention required something from each student. His entry that year was a plastic garbage bag made into a bib, with a tray type bottom edge. He called it a Slop Stopper. I'm surprised somebody hasn't begun marketing it.

The concept's great... they're probably still working on the name. At least we know which category to put it in, when it appears on the market!

I think you meant 'dinner WEAR' and 'sportsWEAR' - dinnerware is plates & dishes, and sportsware is equipment! LOl

How I search:-
Clothes > Womens > Plus sizes > Size XX

Because I like to browse for non-specific items - ie - I don't particularly want trousers, but I might see some in my size and buy them - then I'd be looking for something to go with them etc etc.

It's the SIZE that's important to us larger ladies - (feebay messed it up really good for plus size sellers and buyers.)

Think they have do you mean something like this

!!!! NYSA. That is exactly what he made, with the addition of what looks like a velcro neck fastener. Where did you find that? Is it for institutional use? I think i might buy some if they were available. If it became the custom for use in spaghetti restaurants, etc., wouldn't that be great?

I realize it's usually preferable to have reusable items like Kimbo's bedsheet around the neck, but for those times when you've forgotten to pack, a disposable is perfect.

Gothicina - re. #9 - if you have 'womens' size 32' usually if you search for 'size 32' in a 'women's' category - it brings up size 32 bras, size 32 waists, size 32 skirt lengths, even 'euro size 32 shoes'!!

Please, please please - dont take away the 'plus size' categories, however inadequate!!

I agree that the bedsheet may be an idea but can be rather bulky, the bib on the other hand is wipeable and can be reused (and it does have a velcro fastening). Just the thing for spaghetti or even curry, wish I'd wore one last night
I found it on a website for procterhealthcare, do a google search for "Plastic Bib With Trough" and you should find it at the top, they deal in health care products and that was under the kitchen and dining category.

If they are reorganised the way I have suggested, you wouldn't need to search for size 32, all UK size 32 items would be together.
ie
Clothing & Accessories

Women
Size UK 6/ US 4 /EU 34/ or under> split into types
Size UK 8/ US 6/ EU 36/>split into types
with all the sizes in between
Size UK 32/ US 30/ EU 58/>split into types
Size UK 34/US 32/ EU 60 or over> split into types

Apparently the number search doesn't work well anyway, this way you wouldn't need to use it.

Bras's don't really fit well in with the other categories anyway.
Maybe they need a category of their own split by sizes?
ie
Clothing & Accessories
Women
Bras> split into sizes
