A friend in need. Help me out?

Here's the deal. I have a friend who very recently made the decision to end a 7 year relationship with the father of her children because he was psychologically abusive and he was cheating on her. When she left a couple weeks ago, he went a bit crazy and got rid of all the clothes she didn't have with her. On top of all her daily wear clothing, she lost LOTS of vintage style lingerie that is almost impossible to replace. Not because it's hard to find, but because it's hard to find in her size.

This is where you all come in.

This friend of mine is looking to rebuild her vintage lingerie collection but her measurements are 38F-26-38 and this makes it somewhat difficult for her to find anything in stores. Despite her hourglass figure, she's actually rather small. She's only 5'5" and her waist is tiny even when she's not wearing a corset.

I know a few of you share this pain and I thought that maybe you could recommend a place where she can buy stuff online to fit her curves and size.

So, if you have any online sources for what I'm looking for, please share them with me so this girl can rebuild her collection.

Also, if you know a place where she can get dresses, slacks, shirts, etc that would fit her and flatter her figure a bit, please include that information as well since she did lose a lot of other clothing.

Thanks ladies!

Good luck to your friend - it sounds like she has been through hell, and losing all her gorgeous things a last kick in the teeth!  Evil or Very Mad

Oh, thank you Violet! I'm sure she'll love this stuff!

I'll be sure that she knows that you ladies are understanding and supportive. I may even be able to convince her to come here once her computer situation is a bit more stable. The guy took off with THAT, too!
