Long Tall Sally

Long Tall Sally is a clothing and shoe brand for tall women 5′8″ and over. Founded in London in 1976, the company offered clothing with sizing adjustments for longer torso lengths, rises on pants, and dart positions on blouses. It sold under several labels including Karl Lagerfeld Paris and its own LTS labels.
The first store was opened in 1976 on Chiltern Street in the West End of London. By 2012 the company had stores in UK, US, Canada, and Germany. The company also sold via mail order using catalogues. In 2018 the business became a solely online .
In June 2020 the company announced its closure. They cited a highly competitive field and the additional impact of Covid-19 for making their business financially unsustainable. The business is anticipated to wind down trading in August.


I was very sad to hear the news of the demise of LTS and being 6'1 and not finding those sellers in the 'competitive market', apart from NEXT, I think I'll just have to get the sewing machine out again, not to make shoes though!

You'll see the LTS (HB) here at our new campsite near Bewdley, Worcs. The views are indeed fantastic and very panoramic and our hosts as welcoming and kind as the reviews.

Weather: no rain but very windy and getting the awning up was more than a little struggle, at times I thought we might be having a go at hang gliding!
