Dress shirts that are long enough to go over stomach and not come out of pants

[jmabry 11]

I have to wear a suit soon. My shirt fits in neck and arms. It is a little small but manageable around waist but the length is too short. I have a 19 34/35 and 20 34/35 that fit but the length is too short. Does anyone know if you can buy shirts that are longer without going to large in other parts of the shirt? I was going to try big and tall xl store. Thanks in advance

If you have a Dillard's near you, they sell them up to 37/38 lengths with still a size 19 or 20 neck (look in the big and tall section). So does does Destination XL (DXL).

You can also find LT, 1XT, 2XT, and 3XT sizes at Dillard's in their big and tall section.

Great thank you. I have a big and tall xl not far from me. Hopefully I will keep losing weight and will let have this problem much longer.

You don’t need to go to big and tall stores any more. Burlington Coat Factory has some nice inexpensive dress shirts in various sizes. So does Walmart.

I’d also go to a Men’s Wearhouse or Brooks Brothers just to get your neck measured.

Late to thread....
Getting a tailored shirt, is worth it. A high quality, well tailored shirt will wear better than a presized cheap shirt, will last longer, and can sustain my dry cleanings. And good shirt material, can be taken in if you are still loosing weight.

I would give it a good 9-12 months after surgery before I bought any non-disposable clothing. I made the mistake of buying a suit mid-weight-loss-journey that I never actually wore.
