Pure Cotton Cropped Collared Shirt

A fabulous white cotton shirt with a very modern look.

This is an excellent example of M&S at its best, lovely material feels crisp and clean will go under jackets, over trousers or skirt a good all rounder.

Cropped = very very cropped, and also very boxy. I bought this cropped shirt to go under sweater vests, hoping to avoid the heaps of fabric that often sit at the waist of conventional collared shirts, and it's not quite what I'd like it to be, but might be nice for other things. I originally bought it in a 14 (my usual size), but it was so short that I gave it to my very slender 20 year old daughter who is not afraid to show off her midriff, and wears it over t-shirts. I'm very short-waisted, but this shirt was still far too short for me to wear without showing off far too much of my decidedly less impressive mum middle. So, I then bought the 16, hoping for a bit more length, and I have to say that while there may be another cm or so to the length of the 16, it is still too short, and because it is boxy, made the sweater vest that I had over it poof out in odd places. I spent a lot of time whilst walking to/from the train & carrying my large shoulder bag, pulling it down because it kept riding up and showing my middle. Not ideal. The quality & finish of the shirt is wonderful, so whether or not you like this shirt will have a lot to do with how you are built (no bust, very very short waisted) &/or whether or not you mind showing a bit of midriff, or if you're planning to wear it open & over something.
