Help please - tracking a very specific tshirt

Hello all,
I've been asked by my mum to find her a particular type of long sleeve tshirt for her birthday. She wants something long sleeved, round neck (with what I would think of as a very high neckline, not as low as many shops), and in a couple of interesting colours. And good quality fabric. Solid colour, no stripes or patterns :-)

Oh, and it needs to be available in a size 18-20.

I've had a hunt in shops and online and can't find much - these are the best I can track down but the colours aren't great. www.landsend.co.uk/Womens_Supima_Long_Sleeved_Crew_Neck_T-shirt/pp/P_34872.html?cgid=11301

Does anyone have any good ideas? I'm willing to pay more than usual for a good solution. I have a newborn so online is better than physical shops.

They have some in M&S. Sorry I can't link.

What about joules harbour tops ?

Thanks, I've had a look in Marks but they seem to be selling cheaper ones just now rather than thicker fabrics 😀.

Ooooh I'd had a look in Joules but hadn't checked the website - thanks!

Something like this from Uniqlo? I think an XXL would be about an 18 and there is a reasonable, if muted, range of colours.

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 18/05/2018 21:16

Sorry, long-sleeved here. Not as good a range of colours though.

I hadn't heard of Kettlewell until tonight but it looks good!

This is brilliant, I would never have found most of these. I'll probably go with Pure Collection. Thanks so much for all the suggestions!

The pure collection ones are not cotton and look like the fabric is thin and clingy...

Zogthebiggestdragon · 19/05/2018 07:18

Thanks, @notcontent, I hadn't got a proper look at the fabric on my phone. The boden ballet neck looks a bit odd, not sure she would want something which scoops at the back. But still some lovely choices! Thanks all!
