No more dropped shoulders!

Hi, I’m seeking a tshirt which is like a loose knit or linen style slightly longer than normal sleeve, with a loose sleeve, just above elbow length which has a regular shoulder, not dropped shoulders but I can’t find anything suitable, I have found almost perfect by Weekday but the cotton is too thick.
i don’t necessarily want raglan sleeve but will take it, really just want a sleeve where the seam starts at the top of the arm, not partway down.
old school style sleeves but a modern shape tshirt, feels really hard to find women’s tees which are flattering for my short and curvy shape without being too boxy or too drop shoulder-y.
i can’t have too fitted cos of big tummy and scoliosis but I just want to be able to wear T-shirts like everyone else but also to look nice!
I found this on the telly I quite like but the sleeves aren’t quite long enough or loose enough.
google searched it but only came back with drop shoulders or too short sleeves
thank you
also seeking nice vest tops, ribbed , not too low neck, scoop or v!
like the colour in the pic, sort of rose pink but also will look at any other options want to build wardrobe basics

Cos do very good T-Shirts in a variety of colours and shapes. Definitely without dropped shoulders.

Amazing thank you, it’s more out of my price range but I don’t mind paying more if it will last, is cos generally good lasting quality?
I assume so but never bought anything from there!

Yes, the t-shirts that I've bought over the last few years have worn and washed well. The fabric is smooth and the seams are straight. I'm not sure about this year's offerings,they look the same but the fabric seemed thinner. Sometimes H&M have decent Pima cotton t-shirts. Arket is also part of the same group.

Uniqlo is worth a look. Lots of styles and colours. Fantastic quality and very reasonably priced.

Marks and Spencer usually do a good quality summer t-shirt. I have a red one that isn't dropped sleeves.

I've also had good tshirts from colourful standard but they are more cap sleeve.

Rapanui do a variety of shoulders. £18 each but they're really good quality.
