T-shirts and vest that go to crotch (and stay that length)

Is there a range/brand you know of that does this length to cover a saggy 'Mum tum'? As well as a lovely muffin top I have a belly that hangs down, it can be seen through jeans so I try to wear long vests and tees to hide it. I'm super self conscious and forever tugging the front of my tops down as I move around. I once tried a tall top and found it resembled maternity on my 5'5 frame though maybe that was just that particular one. The oversized longline tees that are in fashion now are great with leggings but too long with jeans.

Matalan have a selection of vest tops that are longer length, and they stay long after washing and drying

Came on to say the long matalan vests are fab.

Hush long length tank tops (not sure if that link is working sorry) are fantastic; good thick jersey which doesn't go saggy, and properly long. I bought another last season as my first had got a bit grubby and it's still great quality. Have them in black and grey as well.

I’m a 12 and went for a L.
And they defo go beyond my crotch, but because the material is bloody decent for £3.99 it hangs well everywhere, so doesn’t look massive.
I have it in black and white.

How about a bodysuit? Added advantage is that it hides your knickers when you lean over and your trousers ride down at the back.

Thanks will give those a try, I'm an 18/20 on top.

I've worn body suits in the past and I don't want to get back in the habit as I get too used to seeing myself with it on and then struggle to not wear it but remember it being uncomfortable - sore foofoo when press studs nipped sometimes(like banging your coxyx, makes you suck air through your teeth!) and sweaty!

New Look curve and ASOS both do good ones.

Bamboo Clothing Sunrise Vest. Sizing is generous.

I buy cheap boob tubes on amazon:eBay to wear from under boob to over bum ! Under another top obviously, great for hiding wobbly bits and gives a nice layered look without bulk

vest

Next have longline vests in at the moment. Long enough that confident women could wear them as a short dress. I'm not one of those women but they work as a vest bunched up over tum and hips. I bought loads

Synecdoche · 10/07/2019 20:25

Tesco longline vests are also great. As is the tall range from Gap.

MrsW85 · 10/07/2019 20:26

I'm a size 18 and the matalan ones are brilliant. I have about 30 of them in loads of different colours. They wash lovely and go in the tumble drier. They are only £4.

Kalekitkat · 10/07/2019 20:30

I second ASOS, the curve range are longer and looser fitting. You can put in your measurements and how you like clothes to fit too and it suggests a size for you to buy

FrenchyQ · 10/07/2019 20:34

The asda ones are really comfy and wash well
