Sad news for our devoted La Voca fans…. I received word last week that the entire chain will be closing down soon. Difficult retail conditions have been cited as the reason. This is a pity as those of you that I’ve introduced to La Voca stores, will know that this was a value-for-money range that catered for a much more realistic body shape (bigger in the bust, with a bit of belly and hips).
There is a real gap in the market for such clothing, with most stores catering for a slim-ish size 14 / 16, or else catering for a real plus-size in the size 18+ category. There really isn’t much for a lady in her late 30’s – 50’s, who is hovering in the size 12 – 16 mark. We love Veronika Maine but it is more geared for corporate wear than weekend wear. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, feel free to post a comment!
Meanwhile, run to your local La Voca store for a closing down bargain ….
