Sorry haven't read all thread but love stripy tops. How long is it please?

Bunbaker · 12/09/2015 00:44

"How long is it please?"

It isn't very long at all and just reaches my hips - I am 5'7"

Littlepig8834 · 12/09/2015 05:06

I was so tempted to get this but now I hear it's not very long the search continues...

GoofyIsACow · 12/09/2015 10:30

Black and white bought. Fuck you all Thank you all for the persuasion. Because one can never have too many stripy tops. Hmm

ScarlettDarling · 12/09/2015 16:52

No, It's not long enough for anyone tall. I'm 5'11" and when I tried it on I was really disappointed, looked like I'd been chopped in half.

Nice and warm though but not for me.

mrslebon · 12/09/2015 16:55

The S was big and shapeless on me. No purchase made.

BrendaandEddie · 12/09/2015 17:35

Just bought it. Damn you all. S fits well even over the 7 month bump so I'm hoping for some forgiving room once the baby is here too. It does feel nice and cosy! I'm 5.4 and didn't find it too short at all, but I'm not a tunic type.

plum1304 · 12/09/2015 18:27

I also succumbed to the black and white and am very tempted by the red too....

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 12/09/2015 18:36

I didn't like it. I'm only 5ft3" amd thought it was too short. Don't want a tunic but it was only just came to under the top of my jeggings and wasn't a good look. If it had been 2 or 3 inches longer it would have been lovely.

CoconutAmericano · 12/09/2015 20:45

Im 5'9" and like the length. I tried on mine with a longer length vest underneath. I do wonder will it shrink after washing though. I wouldnt like it any shorter.

mrslebon · 12/09/2015 20:53

I'll get my coat...

Bunbaker · 12/09/2015 21:07

The sizing comes up large. I am a size 10 and the XS still looked too big on me.

yazzy85 · 12/09/2015 21:17

Oh no I'm a 10 and ordered a S, might have to get it exchanged for the XS then

TheImprobableGirl · 12/09/2015 22:18

I'm a 12-14 (river island 14, George @Asda 12), 34gg Boobs, 5ft1 (and a half) I bought M, long enough for me, really comfy, slightly odd neck, in that the inside flops outside occasionally, definitely Minnie the minx vibe, (or daisy dares you from when I watched zzzzzzap as a child) love it. 1 wash so far, no shrink, great length sleeves, am hoping to purchase the black and white tomorrow!

DingbatsFur · 12/09/2015 22:47

I was lured in by the stripey top and bought a lovely star top instead. Love H&M :)

ClaudiaNaughton · 13/09/2015 12:40
