Elusive midi for tall women

6 replies

Howdidthathappen1 · 20/06/2020 13:10

So I thought I was fine for dresses but... almost all I own are above the knee and feel a bit dated and not ok for work. I'm hunting for a nice flowing midi - the catch is I'm 6 foot tall!! They all come to right on my knee so look proper frumpsville.
My go to cos is not doing it for me atm.
Any ideas very gratefully received and if they're in the sale even better!

Try ASOS tall, I've bought a few from there

You could try Long Tall Sally while they are still there. There are a few mid length dresses

I’m taki but not as tall as you op and I find buying maxis in normal range’ fits as a great length midi on me. Or ASOS tall. Long tall sally will not help you feel unfrumpy Grin

I am not a floaty dress person but If you are still looking try ASOS tall or Debenhams (you may be lucky).

I am also part of a two tall FB groups both of which have fab tips in about where to buy tall clothing etc.

‘Long tall sally but sell and trade’ and ‘Now LTS is closing, what’s the alternative?’

Also you could look on instagram for inspiration try following Kat Farmer, Danilonglegs blogs or similar for inspiration.

Hi, also in the 6ft club.

Try Boden Long dresses (I still find their long trousers way too short, but the dresses add a nice bit of extra length). Next long (or extra long in trousers) are pretty good too. M&S and H&M have a few options too. Unfortunately, as tall people, we're tied to the big high-street brands and their limited collections...

Dorothy Perkins has a few lovely ones. They’re a little bit too long for me and I’m 5’10 so could be perfect on you.
