When I was asked if I would like to do a Pink Clove review, I have to admit I wasn’t sure. Pink Clove are a plus size clothing company, and if you are a regular reader of my blog you will know that I am no fashion blogger. I am however a woman, and I do like adding to my wardrobe so I had a look at their website. Honestly, I wasn’t sure if their clothes would fit me – I’m sure everyone has experienced the vast sizing differences in clothing from different retailers. Luckily Pink Clove have a size guide on their website. A few measurements later I discovered that I was perfect for their size 16 clothes. So I decided to go ahead.
The first item I choose was a floral t-shirt swing dress. Now, I realise that a swing dress is supposed to be loose fitting, but I felt it was a bit unflattering for me. I am only just over 5 foot, so perhaps the length on me didn’t suit the style. I added a belt which I thought instantly improved the look.
The fabric is 96% polyester and 4% elastane. I don’t think I own many clothes in this fabric, but it was definitely very comfortable with lots of stretch. It’s definitely the sort of fabric that will cope with putting on or losing a few pounds. The dress costs £18, which I feel is in line with most high street retailers.
The second item I choose was the monochrome print bomber jacket. This jacket is the sort of thing I would wear every day. This would be really easy to throw on for the school run. It is also elasticated so perfect for juggling a toddler in one arm and a schoolboy with the other. However, it is also smart enough to wear out, so it offers the best of both worlds.
The jacket is currently on sale at £14 (reduced from £26) which is a bit of a bargain in my opinion.
Pink Clove are a UK based company providing clothes in sizes 16 – 32, although they do deliver worldwide. If you are a plus size I would definitely recommend having a look at their range, as my impression is that they provide affordable fashion, suited to those with a fuller figure.
I’m glad I decided to complete this Pink Clove review as to be honest I wouldn’t normally consider looking for clothes in a plus size shop. I forget that the clothing lines can start from a size 16. And although I was gifted these items, all views and opinions in this post are honest and mine.
I am also delighted to be able to offer one lucky reader a piece of clothing of their choice, from the Pink Clove New Arrivals range. All you have to do is fill in the rafflecopter below, and don’t forget to read the t&c’s. Good luck everyone!

I love Pink Clove – I got my Christmas dress last year from there – a red tartan dress. I love it! x
Oh, there’s nothing quite like a bit of tartan at Christmas time, it’ll not be long coming round this year either eckkk x
fab, I see there’s plenty of choice and the products look great!
Love the swing dress. Can I ask if adding the belt made it shorter. I’m 5ft 9 and unsure if it would be too short for me but do love it
I wouldn’t say the belt made it that much shorter. If you click the link through to the dress, the model on the Pink Clove website is actually 5’9″, so that might be a better guide for you. Of course if you have entered the competition, the winner can pick any item from the New Arrivals range, so I’m sure you could find something to suit.
I LOVE the swing dress and it looks lovely on you!
Thank you for your kind words. Good luck on your entry to the draw.
Lovely dress 🙂
