Amethyst Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 My dd15 is long waisted. She is tallish and very thin. So clothes that are size 0 or 1 which seem like they should fit, are too short in the waist (and the sleeves). Maybe I've been shopping at the wrong stores??? Are there any good stores that you've found that are better suited for tall teenage girls? Thanks! Quote
AK_Mom4 Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 I get the long tanks and camis from Old Navy - their perfect tank collection. We have also had good luck finding shirts with longer sleeves/bodies at Gap and Nordstroms. Quote
itsheresomewhere Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 I second Old Navy. I buy the tall length so it fits right. I have also had the occasional luck in Macy's. Quote

I wear an Old Navy tank under most things, because they are long, thin, and make a good base layer. Quote
Amethyst Posted January 11, 2013 Author Posted January 11, 2013 Thanks, everyone. We have Old Navy, Gap, and Macys at our mall. No Norstroms unfortunately. I'm not generally an Old Navy shopper and Gap only rarely, so I'll give them a try. Thanks! Quote
hmvaughan4 Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Old Navy does not carry the tall sizes in shirts in their stores. I like the way they fit, but the quality of shirt is definitely not the best. Quote
Farrar Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Target has a lot of "long and lean" tanks and camis as well. I think if you use those as a base, she can wear whatever she wants over them. Quote
Um_2_4 Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 When shopping for our nephew (who is super tall, but super thin due to a medical condition) I discovered that Sears of all places has the skinniest and longest clothes (at least for boys). DH's bro actually lives in Germany and had a hard time finding clothes to fit and was THRILLED with the clothes we sent... Might be different for teen girls, but worth a check... Quote
