Yep I suffer with this issue too. Who are these tshirts for? They are NOT flattering on anyone, are they?

t-shirts generally ok for length for me as I'm short - until I wash them, even one wash & they're too short grrrrr

Long Tall Sally

Top Shop taller section are good for Ts and for stretchy, strappy tops then H&M maternity! They're no different, just longer.

Yeah, the Tesco fair trade ones are quite good. I bought one the other week on the fishies recommendation on another thread, but they are quite thin, what do you expect for 4 quid I suppose ? .............

tesco have some decent F & F 3/4 length sleeve ones, kind of ballet crossoverish, lots of colors, and long. no muffin top exposed (not that anyone on thread has one of cousre)

I got some from uniqlo this week, not washed them yet but they are nice and long in the body

saffycat · 29/02/2008 12:53

I have bought some great longer length t-shirts from the La Redoute Autumn/Winter catalogue, i think there are some in the spring/summer one too

Another vote for Long Tall Sally. Some of the patterns are vile, but if you just go for plain T shirts you can't go wrong - good quality cotton, cut long in the body.

Another vote for Uniqlo - tend to be on the long side. Tall ranges. La Redoute Taillissime (plus size range) is good for length if you are size 14+. The length of their tops increases with each size up. But the quality and colours can be a bit dodgy - choose carefully. I like them for their cardigans and some vest tops are good.

If you are size 14+, shops that cater specifically for the larger lady tend to have lots of long tops but it is finding the few decent plain ones amongst the piles of vile prints and gathered jersey tents.

I'm the opposite - I need short t-shirts as I'm short and also have a short body. I end up with the bottom of my t-shirts all bunched up as they look even more ridiculous if pulled straight down.

All I ever seem to find is too-long t-shirts!
