White cotton/linen popover style top for size 20 - where??

Help me hive mind, I've run out of places to look - I want a plain white, linen/cotton loose fit pull-on top for the summer. Short or 3/4 sleeves, either scoop neck or 2-3 button (definitely not all-button up), good enough quality fabric not to be see-through, in a roomy, low hip length fit (have a menopausal midriff and c-section sag to cover). I'm thinking White Stuff/Seasalt/Lagonlook -ish style - but can't find what I'm looking for! Any ideas?

Try Kit and Kaboodle: lots of lagenlook type stuff there. Check sizing as some goes up to 16/18, others are bigger

Thanks @TigerDrove Again, lovely stuff but too long - I have a long body and short legs so look very stumpy in tunic length tops.

Have you tried boohoo

Plainandsimple · 04/04/2022 21:13

No I haven't @sophienelisse, at 53 I think I'm too old for it!

I think I saw one on m&s when I was looking for something else x

M&S I bought one last week

It's the neckline that's tricky - everything is quite high necked, at the moment.

Fatface is worth a look, as well as kin and and/or at John Lewis.

M&S! Didn't even think of checking there! Thankyou, shopping trip for me tomorrow Smile

I stopped shopping at Fatface a few years ago - everything was cut too short for me, but having just had a quick look it looks like they've gone long-line again so I'll have a look - Fatface is more the style I'd prefer to M&S.

Try Uniqlo. I got a white linen popover shirt last Summer.

I saw these in Next yesterday, they look really nice.

I got one last year from monsoon and I'm sure they have them in again this year. Lots of other colours too. Sorry I can't link.
