Anyone know who sells this sort of thing?

I DON'T want:

  • wafty polyester, especially not with flappy sleeves
  • cut loose around midriff "because most women have bulges there they want to cover"
  • short length because I am too old to show bare midriff
  • high neck because they make big boobs look massive
  • floral print
  • also hate animal print and have already bought just about every stripy top ever made

I think I might be stuck in the 90s because whenever I watch Friends I keep thinking "ooh, ooh, I want a top like THAT!" (They are usually Phoebe's but not always.)

Anyone got any ideas? I have just lost 10lb mostly from round the middle and I want to show off my nice hour glass shape again.

Are you looking for plain or patterned ones? I tend to buy the pima cotton tees from Jigsaw - they have long and short sleeves and in a variety of colours with v and round necks. Feel nice on and wash/wear well.

Oh and Whistles is also good for good quality cotton tees!

I get mine from Seasalt & White Stuff (although often "boxy" & 3/4 length sleeves).

Yes, everything is very short this year, and I'm long-bodied, and don't want something that barely skims the belt on my jeans.

Sorry, OP -- no suggestions to make.

Gap, just bought exactly that top for my DD in women’s wear Xs to xl in sizes washed well around £15 but hers was in the sale.

Uniqlo... very nice basics that actually fit! (And not expensive!)
I'm the same op.. I don't wear wafty stuff and like slim fit t shirts and long sleeve t shirts that actually cover my long body!
