Ohhh, I like that. Its something I would choose to hide my meno belly too

SBHon · 20/04/2025 13:12

It looks cheap, sorry OP. That website has sweatshop written all over it.

Please don’t worry about your stomach, life’s too short. You’re allowed to have a meno-belly, it’s your human body and there’s not a thing wrong with it.

I love that!! I might order it to cover my meno belly too. The blue is gorgeous, just need to work out the material.

😀I’ve seen similar tops that are £70+ and I can’t afford that.

Tuck it into the jeans

CookingFatCat · 20/04/2025 13:17

I think the style is good for the belly but this top isn’t so nice. Sorry.
Try google lens on the pricier ones to see if you can find something nicer ?
But if you love it, ignore me!

Ineedcoffeenow · 20/04/2025 13:17

There’s a video of it on Facebook showing how it can be pulled down long or bunched up around the middle, if that makes any sense. It looks quite versatile.

PS I have avoided tucking in for years but learnt that tuck in and pull lots of fabric out and it distracts from the belly.

BitOutOfPractice · 20/04/2025 13:21

It’s quite dated but if you like it that’s all treat matters. BUT On the second picture the material looks really thin and static-y. I don’t think it’ll be as nice as you imagine in the flesh.

I think most women if a certain age are looking to hide / disguise their tummy. I know I am. Yet retailers seem to be oblivious to that!

henlake7 · 20/04/2025 13:56

I think Id like it if it was just a boxy bottom, I dont like the cinched in bottom as it looks abit dated.
Also I like the neckline, esp if the zip is properly adjustable but I hate chiffon (no reason...I just do!).

So Im on the fence!

nobodywantsit · 20/04/2025 17:10

I think it’s awful sorry. It looks very cheap and dated.

Mydadsbirthday · 20/04/2025 17:40

It's horrible sorry I really don't like the zip thing.

stayathomer · 20/04/2025 18:04

Op I’ve tried on a few tops like that and because of the band at the bottom it actually draws more attention for me to my belly than if it was a normal tee shirt.

nobodywantsit · 20/04/2025 18:11

Just get a boxy t-shirt that comes slightly below the waistband but not too long. I promise you it will be more flattering.

BumbleBeegu · 20/04/2025 18:27

It looks very ‘old lady on a caravan holiday in Rhyl’ to me OP, sorry!

Not at all what I’d wear…and I’m 60 so I’d put myself in that ‘old lady’ category!

There are many beautifully flattering tops out there…this isn’t one of them.

GirlOverboard123 · 20/04/2025 18:34

Hate it, sorry. It looks like something you’d buy from a market stall. I find that shirred tops are the best and most flattering for hiding my stomach - ones that are fitted around the chest then flare out over the stomach.

Aparecium · 20/04/2025 18:43

I don't like it. I may be developing a menobelly, but I also have breasts. Something like that would turn me into an undefined lollipop.

Newmeagain · 20/04/2025 18:50

It’s really horrid. You can get reasonably priced clothes from “real” shops. This kind of stuff is just sweatshop polyester.

DarcyProudman · 20/04/2025 19:02

It’s awful, looks like an old lady on holiday in Benidorm type top 😀

BoredReceptionist · 20/04/2025 19:14

I am also blighted by a meno belly, the best tops I’ve found have a bubble hem, Next have a few this year and I’ve bought them all. Similar idea to this one but nicer fabric.

LoveTKO · 20/04/2025 19:38

I also think it looks cheap and dated. Don’t get me wrong I love a good doo in a social club, but it looks very middle aged “social club”.
