Any shops that cater for tall women I don't know about?

I'm 5' 10" with 34 inside leg and so usually shop at Long Tall Sally, or from Dorothy Perkins or Next's tall ranges.

I wondered if there are any other good shops that have a tall range that I might have missed, especially if they do nice coats/jackets.

ASOS tall is pretty good.

Thanks, I've never looked there.

Gap is good for tall jeans and trousers. Only online, not in store.

Boden does some longer length stuff.

New Look for cheap basics like leggings.

I just wish more places did longer length pyjamas. They're always so bloody short! Next Tall PJs are my saviour.

Topshop do a tall range. I looked for ages for a leather biker jacket as they come up short but Topshop were fab.

Wallis do a tall range. Great for work stuff.

I just wear men's ones, but then I like button top ones anyway and they're so much easier to find in men's - obviously not an option if you want a singlet and hot pants set!

You’re actually shorter than me and I don’t really feel the need to shop anywhere particularly specialist? H&M, Zara, Topshop Tall are my main go-tos. Also like & Other Stories, Cos, Arket... tend not to look at size labels too closely and just buy what fits, whether that’s a M, L, XL... I guess it’s maybe more about the kind of style and fit you like? What sort of thing are you looking for?

Surpisingly, Sainsbury's do long length trousers.

G star do long jeans, I usually wear a 36inch leg but had to send them all back last year for 34s

Hush do a tall size in their PJs, which are lovely (I don't go a bundle on their main clothing range but the nightwear is fab).

I'm 5' 9 and shop at the Scandi stores (COS, Arket, & Other Stories) but as PPs have said, Asos, Topshop, Gap all good. Asos has quite a lot of Tall ranges - YAS are good for dresses. Also M&S's excellent jeans often come in multiple lengths.

Sadly the Hush tall pj's aren't long enough for me. I'm only 5"8 but quite long legged!

Pollyputthepizzaon · 26/09/2020 13:22

@SacreBleeurgh it depends on proportions. I'm 5'10 with a really long body. I can buy off the shelf jeans and trousers but any top that isn't from a tall range looks like a crop top and I get cold wrists!

So just height doesn't necessarily tell you if you need tall clothing or not I suppose.

VanCleefArpels · 26/09/2020 16:04

If you use Instagram then Kat Farmer (does my bum look 40) and Helen (40 plus not giving up yet) are both v tall so you could see what brands they show

WhereAreWeNow · 26/09/2020 20:31

Definitely @Pollyputthepizzaon - I'm the opposite. Not especially tall but short body and long legs. I never have a problem with tops but trousers rarely fit me unless I get them from a tall range.

noodlezoodle · 26/09/2020 20:45

I'm the same height and inside leg as you, and nowadays I have to buy regular length M&S trousers because the long is sooooo long.
