Everything's too short in the body

[curlywurlyupsydaisy]

Or am I too fat?! I can't work it out but everything I put in comes up really short in the body, is this fashion or am I just fat and middle aged?!

I'm sort waisted but still have this problem. I put it down to having large boobs

I am tall and a big cup size, so I have this problem but I agree it has got worse. Cost cutting with skimpy patterns ?

I have a long torso and large cup size. Even though I’m 5'5.5 I’ve started buying tops in tall sizes, it’s been a revelation. No more constantly pulling tops down any more or worrying when I stretch my arms up, marvellous!

I have this all the time

Yes me too but am a weeble stout.

The fashion does seem to be for short tops at the moment. I have gg boobs too which doesn't help! I always look at tunic tops because they're a better length.

I’m 5’8” and have had this for years! It’s so annoying.
Last winter I discovered that Tu & F&F do 100% cotton and 100% wool jumpers for men that were a lovely length on me. Bargain prices too. So many people asked where I got my jumpers from.
It’s not so bad in summer, I can seem to get plain t shirts that aren’t too bad (Joules Baukjen). But for some reason jumpers in particular are a nightmare, or were!

I have this all the time, pregnancy vests from gap were a revelation, they are long.also h&m do some long vests to wear under things.

I am 5'10 with large boobs but slim waist and trying to find clothes be it blouses , t shirts, dresses is such a problem.I was just shopping in Italy today with my somewhat smaller friends and they found such pretty dresses and tops but I bought towels and dishes because everything was too short for me.Same thing everywhere I go.One size seems to be the thing these days.

Try taller ranges

Try long tall sally.

Oh this is so fucking annoying.

All my weight is around my middle so I need long line tops to draw attention away from my truck tyre tummy.

I shop in Tall ranges, or search for long / long line / oversized fit. I find retailers like Hush, Zara, ASOS, H&M, New Look and All Saints often come up trumps.

This has been frustrating me for years and definitely more for jumpers. Dorothy Perkins sometimes cut generously in length, and they are one of the few websites to usually publish the length of a top. Otherwise you are left trying to figure out what a top on a skinny model is going to look on you. I also don’t like jumpers that are too long so it’s v difficult! Vests are a good idea but they can add bulk

I’m 5’5 and buy tops in the tall section and bottoms in the petite section. It was a revelation when I discovered it.

Also - long body swimsuits mean no more decided whether to flash my minge or my boobs or both
