Here at Long Tall Sally, we pride ourselves on being the leading fashion retailer for tall women worldwide. We truly understand the difficulties taller women face shopping in regular high street stores. That’s why we’re constantly expanding our ranges to ensure finding your perfect fit, whatever your height, is as easy as it should be.
We asked our loyal customers to tell us about their experiences shopping for swimwear that complements their frame. The results? Well, they’re pretty eye opening.
Our survey found that out of 216 women, 95% claimed they struggle to find swimsuits that fit from high street brands. When asked if they struggle to find swimsuits that suit their body proportions, 91% answered yes.
Designed For Real Women
We asked 232 women what their top priority is when buying swimwear. The results were clear: 55% chose fitting a tall frame, and 17% decided that the design was top of the list.
Our survey also revealed that 90% of women feel brands aren’t listening to the fit needs of tall women – and that is exactly why we are here to make a difference! Our longer length swimsuits cater to all body types, ensuring the perfect fit for you, regardless of height.



We also asked 246 of our customers which feature they find the most important when buying a swimsuit. 69% said true torso length, 23% answered bust support, and 9% said adjustable straps.
We’ve listened to your frustrations, and that’s why our latest swimwear collection was carefully designed with taller frames in mind with extra length throughout the body, longer straps for an ensured fit, and waist details in the correct position.
How To Look After Your Swimwear
- Quick Rinse – Rinse your suit in cold water after each wear as soon as possible. Remove excess salt, chlorine, and suncream.
- Suncream-free Zone – Avoid getting suncream and any lotions on your suit as the chemicals can damage or even stain it.
- Washing – We recommend hand washing your suit. Even on the gentle cycle, a washing machine can still be too rough on your suit. Use cold water with mild soap and lightly massage.
- Drying – For best results, gently squeeze out any excess water. You can also lay your swimwear on a towel and roll it up to absorb any water. Leave your suit out flat to dry.
The Best Swimsuits For Tall Women
The key to swimsuits for tall women lies with the torso length. If you carry your height in your torso, it only makes sense that you need extra length for a comfortable fit.
