Disco strap length for tall gals - add a hole or not??

[Karen Laughlin]

I have been wanting a good everyday cross body yet so many crossbodies are not long enough. BTW I am 5'10" but like a low cross body to really sit on my hip, not waist.

What are your thoughts on the Disco. Seems pretty good, although I do like it better with one additional hole added. Question. Does this leave the tail too short???? Then I read some shorter gals don't like too much of a tail on the strap as there is no hoop to keep it secure.

Hate to throw 1k on a bag and not have it perfect.

Thoughts?

i'm 5'10 and it was fine for me. i'm a thin 5'10, no curves, and i believe it sat close to the hip area certainly not at the waist, but like i said i'm very thin and perhaps more fullness in the frame would mean it would get shorter. the top of my hand could rest on the top of the bag itself, so it wasn't short, but it wasn't long. i didn't need another hole and never even thought it needed that. i'm sure i uploaded a picture someplace... i'd take a pic but i i did sell it for other reasons, but i personally never found it short as a crossbody. the little end piece did dangle and curl quite a lot so it must have still had length, b/c i remember buggering about with that extra piece.

I am just under 5'5" and here is how the disco sits on me on the loosest setting as well as the length of the tail, if that helps! I also shared some additional thought on the disco in a post here. Hope that helps!
