Mikafish Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 Yay! Glad to see that this is getting some support! BlueSky perhaps we could put some info together on Zazzle to show a solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiibet Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I bought a white ladies T-shirt from the Boston gig, size Large. And it was way too small... And I'm not a big girl, just medium size. I gave that T-shirt to my son, 11 years old... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAK1 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'm with you. I'm size 16, and I bought the ribbon hoodie, it kind of fits, in a very snug sort of way. But I'd rather have a little more room under the arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emika Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Well, i'm not a big girl (size 6-8) but my Mum is a size 16 and a huge Mika fan so she can't get a female top, only a mens but she doesn't bother, so i'm totally with you on this case.

Blue Eyes Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Great idea!! Please could you add me to the Big Girls list I had my little moan in the merchandise thread, but this really does pee me off - as I couldn't buy any of the nice ladies t-shirts / hoodies last time - just 'cos I'm cuddly Hope we get enough names to make the powers that be take notice... Oh and Blue Sky - Zazzle sounds perfect - WE WANT ZAZZLE !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nielo Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'm not really a big girl, but I do think there should be more choice in sizes, especially for merchandise of a guy who sings about big girls. So count me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pideh Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 seriously I'm not big but the sizes are kind of stupid:teehee:..There should be larger sizes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuchAShame Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'M IN! That's so annoying, and it's not only problem with Mika's shirts, almost every band shirt sized Large that I've bought are really size Medium. Why? What's the point? makes me angry.... Well, actually not angry more like sad Anyway, we have to make BIG NOISE, 'COS WE ARE BIG GIRLS and I know Mika is looking us like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisag Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'm 5'11" tall - so if I am in the same proportion to someone of say 5'3" I need obviously a larger size. I would love to buy a womens fit tshirt if it went up to a 16 or 18. I can see that Zazzle might not be the way forward for the majority of MIKA merchandise, as the profit per item is much lower than you can make if you have a printer to print up a large number if items up front, but it might help them to quantify the demand for larger sizes out there, at little cost to themselves, so they can change the sizes they order in future. My only worry (as someone who has two shops with Spreadshirt, a Zazzle competitor) is that they may well not offer women's cut products in larger sizes either, it is an ongoing gripe for us and our customers generally. The sooner clothing manufacturers start to recognise that not everyone is a 5'3" twig the more money they will make! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjbsrbab@hbibby.orangehom Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I am a 17 year old girl who has a curvy shape-size 14-16. I have large breasts (34dd) and big hips. I wish I could buy a t shirt. Count me in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika Mad Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 This is a great thread that we should have thought of ages ago. -thanks MikaFish:thumb_yello: I think that even if Mika didn't champion Big Girls it would be a pretty poor range of sizes. As it is, it's very disappointing. I have a T-shirt in Large that is a pretty snug fit and anyone who has met me will know that I'm actually quite skinny! The time has come for some bigger sizes please Mika! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanou Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I'm totally in!!!!! I've only had a really quick look at the t-shirts because I already knew I wouldn't find one large enough for me.... This thread is a really good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
