They have some longer styles in their women's buttondowns, although I haven't looked lately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tops-to-fit-a-long-waisted-figure#post-1019819 Mon, 02 Sep 2013 22:37:38 +0000 DonnaF 1019819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am very long waisted with a l-o-o-ong torso so I shy away from low rises since they make me look like I'm all torso with legs stuck on at the knees.&nbsp; At 5'1", I am also a Petite, but I've occasionally purchased in the regular department if the item is not long sleeved and looks like it is cut short in the torso.&nbsp; Basically, I study the online photos and review the measurements and reviews.&nbsp; For online retailers, you can usually email, instant message, or call them for measurements.&nbsp; A year or two ago I bought my only J. Crew item, a linen shirt.&nbsp; It is cut quite long, and their photos look to me as though their shirts tend to be cut long.&nbsp; Foxcroft, sold by Nordstrom, seems to be cut quite short through the torso btw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tops-to-fit-a-long-waisted-figure#post-1019376 Mon, 02 Sep 2013 01:35:22 +0000 Wendi1984 1019376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So it seems like I have a long torso or something. Tops are often a bit on the short side, especially with pants that have a medium or low rise. (All my pants!) I am constantly adjusting/pulling down my tops in the back after standing up. I've bought a couple of Tall size tees from the Gap; the length is nice, but the armhole area doesn't fit exactly right.</p> <p>Are there any brands that seem to fit better if you have along waist/torso? </p>
