I own enough blouses, but avoid tunics since I'm short, but not petite.

Wow....what kind of response is that? Did you even read her post?

 

She's not singling out QVC, saying that they only have tunic length tops, she says no matter what stores/sites she's looked at, tunic length tops are mostly what she can find.

 

She then asks if anyone has suggestions where she may be able to find some tops shorter than tunic length.

 

Good grief!


I find that very hard to believe. I see non-tunic tops all the time. I could do a google search right now and find thousands of options.

Bringing this up again!  I wish there would be more variety in the styles of tops, almost all seem to be tunic lenght. Maybe designers could make some in petite versions?  Some of the styles are so cute but with the designs being what they are it makes them impossible to hem. Could usually count on Denim & Co. but now most of their styles are way too long as well.

I purchase a lot of tops from QVC because of the longer lengths.  I can never find anything at Kohls, Steinmart, etc. because they are just shorter than I prefer.  I really appreciate that I know the length before ordering and choose only those that are the perfect length for me.

Please, please......could we have more tops that aren`t tunics?  I know a lot of people like them, but when you`re only 5 foot, and not exactly skinny, I look like I`m wearing a tent.  Plus there`s just too much material.  Denim & Co., Susan Graver, Quacker Factory, just a suggestion, since I buy most of my clothes on QVC.  Thank You

I'm not wasting a dime on a tunic. Even tops not labled tunics are too long. The proportion is not good for me, and I'm not walking around lookinbg like I have no legs and pregnant on top.

I never see tunic length in stores.  Qvc is one of the few places where I see tunics.  Without a tunic everything would shrink up to crop top length on me.  It's not easy finding tops for talls.

I love plaid but your black hole discovery has an unfinished look, no buttons, no pockets, no shape, and odd sleeves. I'd send it off to GW.

I prefer tunic length.  I have long torso ... tunics work!
