Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Beyond Soft Short Sleeve V-Neck Tee

The shirt was far too baggy for my liking. It made me look way larger than I am. The bonus was that it is really comfortable. The material is unbelievably soft, stretchy and cozy.It needs to be far more fitted though. The bottom bows out and looks like I am wearing a potato sack. Love the material but that doesn't excuse the way it looks.

Starts out as "Beyond Soft", but even after laundering as instructed, pilling develops and fabric becomes limp and stretched around the neck. I wished it stayed as beautiful and smooth as when I bought it.

The color was exactly what I was looking for but the size was way too big. I guess I have to stay with your Petite, Petites size so they will fit. Please, please come out with colors like gray, tan, brown, or rust in petite tees. I'm so tired of the same colors every year!

I love the color and the cut but very disappointed with the quality of this top. After the first & second wash, the V-neckline lost it's shape and will not lay flat. Now looks a bit shabby. Not the quality I expect from L.L. Bean!

I returned this shirt. Very thin and clingy fabric and a odd cut. Not flattering at all.

Looked cute in the catalog, but I didn't it at all. I hated the shoulder treatment and the pulled-out v-neck. The fabric is too thin and wouldn't work as any kind of sun protection. It doesn't drape well And the color doesn't look like either the catalog or the online photo. It's supposed to be some kind of salmon, but it's just plain neon orange.

Way too big. LlBean needs to rethink their sizing. Hangs like a tent with gaping arm holes

This tee is soft with a relaxed fit. It sits away from the body. I did not like the oversized look of the tee.

I was so excited to get this top! I liked the shoulder ruching detail. It was simple and could be worn everyday. I purchased a few colors without thinking twice. When it arrived, I tried it on immediately and was disappointed. The top of the shirt was very cute. It was very lightweight and good for warm weather, but the bottom was bulky and made me look huge. I don't want a top that hugs my belly, but this top was too wide at the bottom. It wasn't what I was expecting. I could tuck it in, but I was hoping for something that could lay nicely and stay untucked. Unfortunately, I will be returning them.

Boxiest, most shapeless tee ever! Side seams with no sleeves design give it a very strange fit (if you could even call it a "fit"). Can't believe Bean actually sells this item. The soft mint/seafoam color is the only thing this tee has going for it.

This is a cute t-shirt, the fit is good and it's long enough for me. But in the LLBean description it claims to be machine wash and dry. It's not. It's machine wash delicate cycle and no-heat dryer only. That's basically hand wash and dry which is not what I wanted in a $40 t-shirt. I want to run it through the laundry with the rest of my clothes. Because it's a t-shirt! Stop making t-shirts out of fabric that will disintegrate or shrink if you wash and dry them.

I ordered 2 shirts in petite medium. The one shown here was 6" larger in radius than the other one I bought. I wear this size in most all brands but this was enormous even compared to another one I bought in your brand.

The shirt is too large. A medium feels like a large. It was also too faded.

I loved these when I bought them but both were stained after just one wear. Even with proper laundering care, they did not wash well.

Very square in shape! Much larger than it should have been!

This looked very nice in the picture, but it did not fit well. I typically wear a large in tops, but this was far too big and baggy. I am 170 and 36DDD. I also did not care much for the fabric. It's on the heavy side and just hangs.

Got the petite size and it was so boxy I returned it.

Bought two of them and now I wish I had returned them prior to washing. The material is fragile and too thin for my taste. The label says not to iron but it comes out of the laundry wrinkled. The design is cute, the colors are beautiful, but the material is not acceptable.

These shirts hung off me in all directions. I ordered XS petit, and I am not tiny. I am taking them back.

The fabric in this tee is sheer and flimsy, and unless you favor the "nude" look, it probably shouldn't be worn in public. It's basically like wearing nothing at all! About the only thing it might be good for is sleepwear. It is also not as long as it appears in the photos.

Have always been able to count on ll bean sizing but these t's run very large and long. Material is very thin.

this shirt had no shape. It felt like wearing a box.

I own many LL Bean shirts and this is the first time that I have had a problem with them. I usually order a size up if the shirt is mostly cotton to allow for shrinkage so I ordered 1x: it was gigantic. Returned that size and went with my usual XL as I don't like shirts to fit too tight on my not so perfect older body: still way too large, like a maternity top that was 6 inches too wide. Sad because the material and style are nice and they would have been perfect for summer.
