Height has always been an asset. Most women try to choose clothing that makes them look taller. So, women gifted with a good height should have an easier time shopping for clothes, right? Wrong. Most tall women have to wear regular length pants or else shop in the plus-sized wear section. Designers label women as Tall if they are over 5 feet and 8 inches. Tall women typically wear pants with a longer inseam.

Some tall women try and disguise their height while others flaunt it. Either way, they should focus on the right style and length of skirts and pants. Pants that have a tapering fit make the legs look longer. Low-rise pants look great. Capris and pants or shorts with cuffs look good on tall women too. Tall womens clothing should have pants and skirts that minimize the length of the legs to give an even and balanced appearance.

Short skirts look great on tall girls. So do peasant-style skirts. Long formal skirts with knee-length slits and formal knee-length skirts – both look good on tall women. Tops and T-shirts that fall over the pants or skirts look better on taller women because it gives a more proportioned look. Avoid going for too many colours. Wear matching shoes. You can go for tops with collars or bows.

Full-sleeve tops also look good. Bias-cut tops or dresses look wonderful on the tall woman. Avoid busy patterns on your clothes. If you are trying to hide your height, wear flat shoes or shoes with small heels. Flat shoes don’t add height to the person and help to underplay the height too. Girls who love their height and want to show it off can opt for knee length heeled boots to emphasize their long legs.

Straight skirts and fitted blouses are the classic dress choice for tall women. Tall womens clothing usually has a nice mix of light and dark colours. Wide belts are preferred over narrower ones. Tall women who carry themselves well look like supermodels. By dressing properly, they can use their height to their advantage and look confident and attractive.
