buzzard123 28-02-2017 04:44 A longline white shirt at last..... Having read a previous review suggesting it might be an idea to go up a size, I ordered a 14 and a 16. I'm usually a 12-14, and the 14 is the best fit - comfortably roomy - just what I wanted. I too will be removing the belt and tabs, very easy to do as the tabs are not sewn into the side seam. If I want to wear a belt with it, I'd prefer one of my own and not necessarily placed where the tabs are. I love the fabric, not too flimsy, and the cuffs have a long opening making it easy to roll the sleeves up if required. I like the curved hem and the side slits, and the length is perfect for my 5'9", just below the bottom. A good length for a variety of heights and outfits, jeans, leggings etc. At last - a classic longline white shirt with some feminine details, I've been waiting a long time. DELIGHTED.

MandyS 23-01-2017 08:28 Personally I would go up a size! I purchased this shirt in my own size but found the size up a more comfortable fit. My mother has done the same as well on my suggestion. We are removing the belt and tabs on ours to wear as a straight shirt. I have been looking for a pure cotton plain and simple long shirt for casual wear with Blazers and jackets for at least 3 years - at last. This comes just under bottom level (about 2 inches below) on me and I am 5 ft 6. On my mother a little shorter as she is 5 ft 9. Needs a good ironing to get the shape and crisp feel but good on the whole for the price. Please M&S more pure material; cotton and Silk, shirts that are longer in length.
