Mumsnetters who know about clothes! Please help me!
For years and years I have lived in Matalan's "perfect t-shirt" range. They fit me like a glove, have a neckline I love and just the right sleeve length. I loved the fact that they were a heavier cotton and didn't have too much stretch so they skimmed all my wobbly bits instead of clinging to every lump and bump and they also came in every colour under the sun so I had one for every outfit.
Maralan discontinued them last year and I have been preserving mine carefully since then, but disaster has struck and I have managed to wash a pink biro with my lights load, leaving me down by 6 t-shirts. I am devastated and literally sobbed when I realised what I had done.
Can anyone suggest an alternative? Please excuse the bad pictures, but this is the shape / cut / fabric I am trying to replace.
In the interest of full disclosure, I had an eating disorder for many years and still struggle with major body-image issues. Finding clothes that I feel ok to wear and that I feel I look acceptable in still causes me major mental problems. I am aware that devastated sobbing is a massive over-reaction, but these t-shirts were my lifeline and I thought I would have a few more years before I needed to find an alternative.
