Tall clothing

Where do my fellow tall ladies get their clothes from? Mainly trousers Smile
Always stuck with Topshop tall Joni jeans but find that the material thins quickly and end up with holes easily. Tried cheap ones from boohoo tall but felt they didn't stay up well.
Then black work trousers I've got boohoo again at the moment but don't think they'll last long as weird material

Palones are quite good for tall people. I'm 5'9 and most of my trousers come from Palones. Their models are around 6 feet so it gives you a good indication of length/fit. They're also great for blouses, jackets and coats that actually have sleeves that fit people with long arms. They're a fairly new brand (2 months old) and online only.

They're doing some good discounts at the moment. For example, spend £200 and get £50 off using code SAVE50.

Their clothes are beautifully cut and made with archive fabrics so sustainable. They also make most items in limited numbers so you won't bump into people wearing the same clothes as you. Smile

Uniqlo jeans are really long! I am 5”8 and have to turn up their 32” length.

Long tall sally has some decent items. Some are frumpy but always worth checking to see what they have in the work wear range.

I’m 6’. ASOS, Zalando, Gap, New Look & Next all have specific tall ranges & ASOS in particular are good for carrying smaller labels who do a few tall bits (YAS, Cheap Monday etc).

I’ve recently got some 34” leg Levi’s which are amazing quality, but love the higher end H&M 34” leg jeans for every day.

I’d avoid Boden ‘tall’ because not only will their shit website filter give you the rage but all of their ‘tall’ offerings are just regular but longer (so all detailing/pockets/sleeves are the same as regular sizes which make the proportions weird) - I’ve given up on them. Also given up on LTS as their clothes are so depressingly frumpy, although occasionally something worth wearing slips through so I occasionally travel through the website! Never had much luck with Topshop, the jeans are such poor quality & whoever their buyer is who endlessly decides a ‘tall crop top’ is a thing clearly isn’t tall themselves. All normal bloody tops are crop tops on tall women - no shortage of them!
