Happy Shopping,

Dear Sydney:
“…..For the first time in 4 years
I was the "Star" of my dance, not
the size 4 girl in the dress that showed her
midriff. Suddenly, everyone flocked to me too
see where I got my dress and to tell me that
I looked unbelievable. Guys that I thought
never even knew I was there were suddenly asking
me to dance and telling me how beautiful I
was. I left my house that night feeling like
a princess. Thank you so much for everything
that you and your staff did to help me get
the right size, and color, here and in plenty
of time to get everything else in place. You
are a Small Company with a Big Heart.

Dear Sydney,
It’s so hard to find a prom dress
in plus sizes and also one that is classy
enough for teenage girls.
It was such a privilege to wear my dress
and know that I looked as good as all the
other girls who are much slimmer than I.
Thanks for making this year special for
me.

Dear Sydney,
I ordered the
Carmen, and it was a huge success at my prom. Everyone
loved it! As you can see I wore running shoes with
the dress. They are comfortable and they are just
me. As you cannot see my hair was BRIGHT red..the
color of the roses. My prom date had a suit to
match my dress. It was so much fun!. Thank you
for helping me so much, and offering prom dresses
in plus sizes.

Dear Sydney,
Just want to say that I really love your website!
It's so great! I'm a big girl, I wear plus sizes. I am a senior
in high school this year.
Our prom is in May. I honestly thought
of not going because, I can’t find a dress large enough for me. I read the section
on your website, happy stories.
I thought ALL of them were WONDERFUL. You really
do make dreams come true, and possibly mine too. I was so happy
I almost cried…Thank You …!

Dear Sydney,
I cried when I came across your web page and
noticed plus size girls modeling. I’m 18 and wear
a size 20 and it's so hard to find plus size dress where
I come from.
I am very pleased with the quality and styles
this web site have provided for a girl like me. Keep up the
good work!
Thanks Again

Dear Sydney,
I found your site while trying to locate a dress
my plus size niece could wear to Homecoming.
God Bless You!!!
Being her plus size aunt, I am all to familiar
with the torture trips to the mall feeling
like Gigantor looking for Barbie size fashions.
It was such a pleasure to find an assortment
of cute, trendy dresses to choose from that
are just the right size. Thank you for making
the effort to recognize that beautiful girls
come in all sizes and shapes and they deserve
to have choice clothing too.

Dear Sydney,
I JUST got my dress in the mail today. and
OH MY, you have mad me sooo happy. I LOVE IT!
I went shopping all over town and have not been
able to find a fashionable gown for the Marine
Corps Ball. WELL, I found it! ALL the gowns I
have found were too old for me( Mind you I am
26) or too expensive. Just wanted to let you
know I have let some of those places know where
to send their girls if they cannot find a suitable
dress. The Ball is a yearly event, we curvy girls
NEED DRESSES!!! YAY, I am so happy. Expect some
pictures soon and of course more orders in the
future from me as well as my friends!!!
Sincerely
Melissa L. |

Dear Sydney,
I ordered the "Cassidy" dress recently
from your company for Homecoming. It is so refreshing to see a site that caters
to bigger girls and the styles are beautiful!
You guys rock.
Much luv,

Dear Sydney,
Thank you again for your response to our last
minute request! Your customer service is outstanding!

for more!

Dear Sydney,
I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my
heart. As a high school senior, I am looking forward to my Senior Prom.
At the junior prom, I got lucky and found a great dress at J.C. Penny,
but it was nothing like what you guys have. I looked at the other girls
in envy when they came in wearing their sparkly dresses. They looked
great, and secretly, I wished for a dress like that.
I have found my
dream dress! THANKS!

Dear Sydney,

Dear Sydney,
I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of
my heart!
I've always been so depressed when I had to go
shopping,
because no matter how hard I looked or how hard
I squeezed
none of the ordinary department stores had anything
that was
trendy or my size, and just forget about having
trendy cloths in my size!
I hate looking matronly, but that's all there
was to find in my size!
Now I don't have to feel bad about my size and
shopping is FUN!
Now I know what other girls who aren't as blessed
size wise as myself
mean when the say the are just addicted to shopping!
I am too, and
thanks you to I'll always look hot and feel comfortable
with my self!
Who could feel that way in a grandma dress when
they are 20 years old!
Love you guys!

Dear Sydney,
A couple of days ago I stumbled onto your web
site and all I have to say is wow!
You have gorgeous clothes at great prices!
I know how it feels not to be able to find anything
for plus size teens!
I had to wear an old grandma dress for my grade
eight graduation and
it was so humiliating! But since then I’m
now in my last year of high school
and I’ve lost 70 pounds! But it's still
hard to find some clothes for plus size teens.
I saw your formal dresses and they are beautiful.
Keep up the excellent work! And it just proves
to show that you can be large and still look
great!
Sincerely,
Casey Rapley

Dear Sydney,
Thank you so much for the Party Princesses
dress. It is perfect! I am grateful that you got it to me in a week. I
had time to get it hemmed and altered.
Now I am looking forward to my senior
prom. You have made it all worth it.
Thank you so much.

Dear Sydney,
…I learned about Sydney’s Closet
from Seventeen Magazine…I am writing you
on behalf of many plus size women, who, like
your daughter, find it hard to find dresses that
fit.
I would like to thank you for giving plus
size women a chance to shine. And your clothes
are not just cheap clothes that tear easily,
they are top quality, and even though they are
expensive, they are worth it. Worth a night of
beauty. So on behalf of me and many other plus
size women, thank you.
Sincerely,
Vanesha J. CA |

Dear Sydney,
I graduated in 2002 but I still love looking
at prom dresses. I didn't buy it from you, but I wore the dress "High
Society" to my May 5 2002 prom.
It's great that your site even exists, but even better that it's being advertised in teen
magazines.
It does loads for a big girls self esteem. Thank you so MUCH!!!!!!

Dear Sydney,

Dear Sydney,
First and foremost, I'd like to thank you for
your site. It's not easy for bigger girls to
find dresses (I should know! I've been looking
for a formal dress forever!). Not only are these
dresses beautiful, but they are also at a reasonable
price…
Thank you again! You don't know how great you
are!
Lots of Love,

to go perfect my SR. year and you made that possible for me by caring plus
