Dressing DH

I CAN NOT get the man to try on clothes or even get him into a store. He's tall, slim and I just can't seem to find tops that are long enough in body. A medium is usually perfect width but too short and a large is messy. He's only 27, looking for recommended shops or styles...

Ooooh, placeholding for the same reason. DH is perfectly capable of dressing/shopping for himself, but his t-shirts are always too short in the body.

He's tall, skinny and 27. Are we married to the same man? :o

The only way I can get DH into a clothes shop is to hang a teen and a preteen DD off his arms to pull and me shove.

Have u tried like Havana and big fish clothing ect they are not just for big people they so skinny people stuff and they do upto xxlong on certain clothes might be worth a wee look? Just a suggestion x

Have you looked at Gant? DH is tall (and not so slim) and the lengths are good on him. They are a bit pricey but often have good sales.

What do you mean by tops? I buy DH tshirts and sweatshirts usually from Surfdome or Chemical and just pick his only favourite colour and least busy logo (no mean feat these days). He has a jeans make/model he likes so I just get those in his size every now and then. It's like dressing a really rubbish dolly Grin

M&s was where my father (v tall and skinny) shopped as they had a long range of t shirts and shirts. Maybe they still do them?

I swear most of DH's not inconsiderable T shirt collection has been sourced at gigs. He also buys them in posh markets like Greenwich in London or art galleries
