Specialties
Emma Plus is a specialist plus-size women’s boutique. We sell UK sizes 18 – 34, and stock collections such as Anna Scholz, Elena Miro, Marina Rinaldi, and many others.
We have a highly experienced, friendly staff, and are able to offer a superb consultation service to our customers.
We undertake expert alterations on our garments, to ensure that everything that leaves our store fits beautifully… and most of the time these alterations are free.
We are situated in Brighton’s vibrant North Laine area… the centre for independent retailers in our city, and are placed next to a large, accessible car park. We are just round the corner from the railway station, and near to most bus routes.
Our shop is spacious and fully air-conditioned. We always welcome customer feedback, and have a forum/blog on our website (www.emmaplus.co.uk/forum).
History
Established in 1994.
There has been a plus-size designer womenswear store on this site for over 25 years. It has had a couple of incarnations, but has been Emma Plus since 1994.
The present owner is a plus-size woman herself, and is passionate about women’s fashion. The look of the clothes stocked reflect an edgy, fashion-forward approach.
Nowadays, it is very much a ‘destination store’ with customers travelling from all over the country to visit the shop, often dovetailing the trip with a stayover in the vibrant seaside city of Brighton…
