Why does it seem that the majority of tops I’m seeing are tunics? And most are not in petites, which makes us shorter girls look ridiculous. Please, please please less tunics and more petite tops!

I know. I was just thinking I was not going to buy anymore tunics. I only wear them with leggings around the house so I have more than I need. When I go out, I want to wear something less casual. I have been getting some nice regular length tops from Appleseeds and Lands End. 

 

Also no more tops that are longer in the back, no huge florals, no more camoflage or animal prints.  Give us some nice classy looking items that won't be out of style in a couple of years.

I actually love tunics.  I am a petite and  all of the tops I have bought from QVC are tunics at least they are on me @ 5'1 (and I have bought quite a few this year)  The tops I bought fit well so I hope you can find something  you are looking for.    Woman LOL

Re: TUNICS all the time!!!!

I find lots of tops that are not tunic length, but I am tired of the high-low hemlines.

I agree tunics are great over leggings, but I don't wear leggings every day. Ironically, I'm not considered petite (5'6") but the first thing I check is the length and now order Petite Plus Sizing so I don't look as casual. I really feel for you petite ladies, it must be disappointing to see a top only to find out you can't get your size. Plus sized women struggle, too. I've found so many tops I like, but no inclusive sizing.

I have noticed as well.  I will not purchase those high low, shark bite tops.

If people only realized that when you wear a long top streached over your bottom it looks hideous. You look awful from behind, thinking you have it all covered up.  Actually you have accentuated the not so great part of you.  Land's end has almost every item in petite, and lots of classy stuff and beautiful cashmere.

Would love to see the tunic trend go away! I am 5'4" and the so-called tunic length looks like a dress on me and is overwhelming. I need 25-26 " in a top....getting harder to find.

Ladies, I'd look at Talbots, they're having quite a sale and they run on the traditional side.

I've never been a fan of tunics or leggings for that matter.  It's just not a trend that ever caught on with me.
