Help! Need recommendations for a yoga top suitable for peri-menopausal woman with bloated belly! Something comfy that doesn’t ride up or cling too much. Ideally stays in place in downward dog etc! I’m based in UK

Just a T-shirt?
I wear tee shirts. You can wear a snug tank top under a tee shirt for better coverage when changing positions, but that can be warm especially if you are having hot flashes.
May be too snug, but Sweaty Betty has great options. They're a UK brand.
High waisted pants over the belly is how I keep it tucked in. Then any tank top or sports bra combo on top.
I have a great top from BAM. It's fitted over my hips but flowy over the belly, so it covers that but doesn't ride up during downward dog. Might be called 'free flow' top.
I wear tshirts. I specifically use Lululemon Swiftly Tech short or long sleeves depending on the season. Everything stays in place, it’s breathable, comfortable and doesn’t restrict my movements. I hate compression, but I also hate having to tuck my top back into my yoga pants 10 times per class. I mentioned Lululemon because it works for me, but I know CRZ yoga and Sweaty Betty for example have excellent apparel, too.
Seconding this rec for the Lululemon swiftly's. The absolute best 👏
I would actually recommend TALA dayflex wrap leggings and shorts for bloated bellies - my partner has endometriosis with severe bloating and her TALA shorts and leggings look so good and cover the endo belly perfectly every time while being crazy comfy and not cutting in. I have the same leggings and love them also because they’re really high quality, and I pair them with the short sleeve tee they have, which doesn’t cover the tummy in and of itself but definitely doesn’t ride up - that being said with the leggings it also absolutely doesn’t need to. I’d also look for tops generally that are flowy but have a tight hem, I saw some from Halara and from BAM recently if I haven’t convinced you with all the leggings talk :)

I just wear a loose t-shirt or vest top which I then loosely tuck into my bottoms at the fron and back when I do inversions
It’s not a yoga top, but I swear by Sweaty Betty running vests. They don’t flap up when you’re upside down, but are loose enough to skim over you and allow you to move freely.
I prefer long racerback tanks and often wear a cropped tee or pullover sweatshirt over it.
Cami or tank top tucked into pants with t shirt over the top.
