I’m a size 16 – I shopped at H&M and found a great bodysuit but the jeans and pants left me frustrated
PLENTY of people might consider H&M to be a top-tier shopping establishment.
Unfortunately, one size 16 woman had a mixed experience trying to shop for her body type.
TikToker and fashion lover Tate posted a video highlighting her recent experience shopping at H&M.
She starts her video by saying: “Welcome to ‘inside the fitting room’ as a size 16… at H&M.”
The first dress she tries on is bodycon-style with spaghetti straps.
“This knit, cream-colored, kind of like crochet dress. It really wasn’t giving anything and it made my boobs look saggy,” she says.
The dress costs $29.99.
Next, she tries on a white bodysuit with long sleeves and thick seams down the front.
“Honestly, I really like the bodysuit,” Tate says.
A long-sleeved bodysuit from H&M costs $14.99.

The third piece of clothing Tate tries on is a pair of tan-colored trousers.
She says: “The top of them fit my waist really well, but the legs were super wide – like ridiculously wide.
“I just feel like they weren’t very flattering,” she continues.
They cost $29.99.
After that, Tate pulls on a pair of grey trousers from H&M’s lineup of items.
In her video, she showcases how impossible it is to button and zip up the pants.
“The biggest size they had was a 14 which clearly did not fit, so those went right back on the hanger,” she explains.
They also cost $29.99.
Lastly, Tate pulls on a pair of jeans that she said she was excited to wear at first.
She says: “They were in a size 18, but as you can see… I’m super confused because I couldn’t even button them. These were definitely not [size] 18!”
Jeans from H&M with tattered looking seams near the pockets cost $39.99.
Tate received some feedback from other H&M shoppers and TikTokers for her video.
