Tall girls, I need a coat - can you help?

[HinnyPet]

I had a black mac from TallGirls ordered but they are out of stock.
I have about £60 to spend, it has to be fitted, cover my bum, make me look tall and slim and elegant and also have a hood that will stay on and do it's job!

Help!

Any suggestions anyone?

It is not black, obviously, and the swinging ties at the bottom could drive you batty (see vid on site for proof)

Can't guarantee elegance, but at least it is black this time

Perhaps a bit more like your initial spec, but not so helpful unless of course you are an 8 or a 14, the only sizes available.

This one is both black and white - mini gingham. Daft sleeve embellishment - ooh hot pink lining, aah soaking wet forearms.

Good luck

Ooh thanks HulaHooper, there are some really nice coats there!!

i'm tall too,so buy in tall ranges for extra arm length!!

i use dorothy perkins,top shop,next and new look ranges

also south do tall range

Thanks Three, have you got monkey arms like me? Mine are a good 3 inches longer than a lot of my sleeves!

yes,and dd is 15 and finding she's inherited them too!!

even the 'tall'ranges arent brilliant,but better than nothing

at least its nearly summer and my sleeeve nightmare will be over for a while!

Yes I like summer..For that reason too!
