Tall Women

What to wear when you are over 5'10"

Long legs, elegant neck and models are tall right, so everyone thinks that it must be the easiest body shape to dress because all clothes are made for models, so they must be made to fit all tall women? Wrong. Anyone who is tall will understand how difficult it can be to find clothes that fit the different proportions of your body.

Alissa (right) from Alissa Loves always tries her hardest to wear clothes that make her look in proportion. She is almost 6 foot, so she understands how it feels to be tall!

Here are some style tips for tall women:

• if you have a long torso, then make sure that you don't accentuate it by wearing long length tops. instead, wear dresses with a waist belt and high-waisted trousers.
• if your legs are supremely long, then lengthen your torso with longer length tops, and stick to mid-thigh length skirts with volume, like a puffball or tulip shape.
• if you find a place that sells tops with sleeves long enough to fit you, in a style that you like, buy a few of them, or you'll regret it later and wish you had.
• trousers should always be long enough. Never step out of the house in pants that are 1 inch too short, or even a half inch too short. It will look bizarre and people will notice. Instead take your time to find a pair of pants that fit perfectly, and almost touch the floor when you put them on.
• if you are very thin and very tall, then avoid looking too much like a bean by layering and playing with shapes. add cardigans and jackets, skirts with tights, socks and leggings.
• if you are a broader tall woman, then wear well fitted clothes and suiting, and avoid bulky fabrics
• don't be afraid to wear heels. for a special occasion, choose some proper high heels, especially if it's an occasion where you are sitting for most of the time. for everyday office wear choose some sexy kitten heels. and for times when you'll be walking around with someone far shorter than yourself, wear flat ballerinas so that they won't feel dwarfed
• don't style your hair high, instead style it voluminous outwards, with big curls. Short styles look great on tall women who already have a strong look, and can carry off such powerful hairstyles.
