I really want that one -- most people who replicate that style just have it as a faux closure, which I hope, because otherwise it'd be dumb on me...
I think you would; that's what I ordered and I've got a ridiculously long torso, too. (I'm maniacal about getting tall sized tops/dressed, but it turns out I wear 30" inseam jeans. Dur! It must ALL be in my torso; I have dinky little legs.) I would maybe be more hesitant on the styles without any stretch in the bust, but I really HATE the feeling of chest-bindiness.
You'll notice I didn't pick any styles with weird bust shaping... I mean, they might well look awesome on other people, but I'm not going to recommend them. ;P
I'm definitely doing another order -- the question is simply when. Honestly, I kind of feel like I could get away with ordering everything in XXL, because hey, it could just be loose! But I was an XL once upon a time... I guess... (and my goal is to fit into my old Lippy dresses. If I have to do this, it might as well be worth my effort. I have some great crap in storage!) Siiiiiigh...
I definitely want a few jumpers (to wear as sundresses) and more skirts (to pair with teeshirts) for summer. Probably grab a pair of those cheap bloomers for underneath, instead of my usual boxers. ;)
Much cheaper to group order it, and then we'd have an excuse to meetup, too!
