Tall shirts are shirts specifically designed for taller women according to the so-called 'tall concept'. This means that the shirt is not only longer, but the entire design is adapted to longer body proportions.
With tall shirts, the proportions between the torso, sleeves, and shoulders are taken into account. This ensures a better fit, maintains its shape, and feels comfortable — even during movement.
