How to Dress to Look Slim and Tall
In this tutorial, I’m going to give you some tips and tricks on how to dress to look slim and tall!
Often, the reason we look short has more to do with our closets than our actual heights. With just two do’s and don’ts, you’ll be on the streets standing tall in no time. Let’s get started.
1. Don’t: Don’t wear long jackets with cropped pants and flats
The jacket and pants pairing is a staple in every closet, especially for those of us who wear business casual to work!
Unfortunately, this particular pairing shortens your torso and your legs without utilizing shoes to give you some much-needed height.
2. Do: Wear fitted short jackets with high-waisted, full length pants and heels
Instead, high-waisted, full-length pants will elongate your legs and make them appear taller than they actually are.
With a short, fitted jacket, you’re no longer drowning in your torso or hiding the length of your legs.
Instead, you’re showing off how long they are and utilizing every inch that your pants give you.
Additionally, your heels are going to give you as much height as you want physically and not just visually, making it the perfect piece to give you length.

Hi, I'm 5,11. 9 stone. Long legged lou. My nick name was....
I dress in flats and would love to wear high, high heels without looking like a lamp post. Lol
I think I'm trying to say is.. I'd love to be small where all my pants would be long.
I never try to look slim or tall I hide it.. strange but true. You look good whichever way.
Tall is not that good promise.
