Shorter length scrub tops

[R5RN, BSN, RN, EMT-P]

I see a lot of threads looking for petite length scrub pants, but not so many asking about shorter length scrub tops. I'm very short/petite (

I want so badly to wear Fashion Seal type tops, loose fitting, kinda boxy, and simple, but the XS is not even close to fitting without looking like I'm a child in an adults T shirt. I realize some are unisex and some are women's, but neither work. I usually wear the Grey's Anatomy mock wrap tops because the length seems to be on the shorter side (around 25.5" I think). But any time I try to deviate from those tops, I end up looking swallowed because they're too long/wide, or they seem like they fit but the fabric is so stiff that it just doesn't work.

What are some shorter length tops that other petite people like? Or if you're taller, tops that you can't wear because they're too short?

Have you considered having them altered to fit you? Check your local fabric store for the names of seamstresses in your area. I think you may be surprised at how inexpensive it is. You could also have scrubs made to your own specifications!

I agree about trying to get then altered. I have had jackets and tops altered to make them shorter. It's annoying to pay for that in addition to the top itself but worth it for me.

I'm vertically challenged at 5'1". Urbane scrub tops are fairly short in the context that they fall just a couple of inches below the level of my navel. I specifically wear the 9501 crossover style scrub top. Other styles will be longer than you'd probably like.

I only wear Greys Anatomy tops. I've come to accept that it's the only fit for short, busty gals like me. 😩
