Shirts for Tall Women: Where to Buy Them Online

You can always tell when a shirt is not the correct proportion on a taller lady: it rides up, the sleeves come up to mid-forearm (they were the 'long' sleeved variety, mind you), and you can't keep it tucked in. Finally, retailers have actually figured out that most tall women would like to be fully covered! Who wants to always be wearing a cut off shirt, anyway? You can't tuck them in because they come out easily, and they don't stay put for a clean line against your torso. It's about time they recognized the need and supplied it. So, don't worry here are some sites that have you covered.

Gap.com

The Gap always seems to be on top of the trends and now they provide their well-made button down shirts in longer lengths. They have a lower arm opening to fit your shoulders correctly, a longer body length, and, thankfully, longer sleeves. These shirts fit tall women perfectly and come in sizes up to XL in most styles. It doesn't matter if you are looking for prints, stripes, or solids because Gap carries it all. And if you are looking for layering tees, than Gap is the best place to find something that will actually layer with length.

The tall section of JC Penney's websites provides you with reasonably priced shirts and blouses that come in styles from elegant to trendy. Although their selection in tall is sometimes lacking, you can find a good fitting shirt for under $30.00. You can find oxfords, non-iron button down shirts, or luscious silks for less. However, if you are 6'2" or over, you might find that even this tall selection is still a little short for your arms.
