T-shirts for tall women

9 replies

I decided to do a Corona wardrobe revamp and I need a few new t-shirts.

I prefer simple-ish t-shirts in black or grey.

I am just under 6 feet and have relatively broad shoulders and long torso. Otherwise I am slim.

where does one buy some decent quality cool looking black t-shirts that have a good length?

i have a long torso too - I find jigsaw t shirts fit well.

J Crew

Bookmarking. Because not all tall women have long legs. (I have slightly longer than average legs and a very long torso. Swimsuits are a nightmare. Have never worn a 'body').

On the whole I find Scandinavian brands good. H&M do properly long cotton vests and t shirts. Arket is good for better quality simple long-sleeved Ts.

What I would like to find are jeans which have a verrrry long rise. I always buy high-rise jeans, but they still end up showing my stomach/builder's bum.

ASOS tall. I’m just under 6ft not really in their demographic any more but they do lots of tall brands and their own brands are good. I really like the £15 collusion black skinny jeans, they actually come up to my waist above my belly button

didn't think of ASOS. I get all trousers from their 'tall range'. ever occured to my to check tops.

will also check jigsaw and j crew. Thanks all

If you’re not particularly busty, I tend to find that men’s tshirts fit me well and are longer in the body as men tend to have comparatively shorter legs. Oddly I also find them more flattering through the midsection.

I bought a few Fruit of the Loom crew tshirts off Amazon for cleaning the house (don’t ask) and they are a great fit. I keep getting ads for Colour Standard which are more expensive but look nice.

jcurve, I was eying up front of the loom mens shirts on Amazon earlier today. I may give it a go.
