What clothes can I wear to make me look taller?
- Monochrome look. Wearing clothes from head to toe in a single color or similar shades can make your figure appear longer.
- Print like vertical. Vertical stripes on clothing can visually stretch your figure, creating the illusion of height. Pants, skirts or dresses with vertical stripes are all great choices. There are also shirts or sweaters with this print.
- High waist pants. They are popular because they fit around the waist and elongate the legs. Wear it with a crop top or tuck the shirt into pants to accentuate your waist.
- pointed toe shoeslike stiletto boots or slingback pumps.
- Avoid wearing clothes that are too long Or they drag on the ground. Logically, they flatten your figure and make you look shorter. Make sure your clothes fit your height, or opt for culottes.
- V-neck. A V-shaped neckline, whether on a shirt or a dress, will visually elongate your neck and make you appear taller.
- Hair tied up. The same thing happens in the neck. If you have long hair, tying it into a high bun or ponytail can add height to your final look.
- Short jacket. A cropped waist-length jacket or coat can help accentuate your waist and make your body proportions more balanced.
- Vertical accessories: Long necklaces, long scarves and other accessories can create vertical lines, making you look slimmer and taller.
How to make yourself look taller?
Besides clothes, there are other aspects that can help you look taller: we talk about posture, attitude and confidence.
- Maintain good posture. Posture plays a vital role in how others perceive you. Keep your back straight, shoulders back, and head elevated. Avoid hunching over. It’s silly, but it makes you look shorter than you are.
- Avoid horizontal stripes. Unlike vertical stripes, which can visually elongate your figure, horizontal stripes can make you look wider and shorter, especially if the stripes themselves are spaced out and too thick.
- Take care of your hair and makeup. Styles that lift your hair, such as a high ponytail or bun, can make your silhouette last longer.
How to look taller without wearing high heels?
except all tip We’ve got you covered with stylist information on outfits, poses, makeup and hair, and there’s more to put into practice if that’s your goal Leave the high heels at home:
- Thin-soled shoes, nude color. Wide soles add bulk to your feet, but you don’t care about that. Nude shoes tend to visually lengthen your legs, making you appear taller. On the other hand, choose mules or shoes without bracelets, as this cut at the ankle is not flattering at all.
- High waist pants and skirts. We insist on looking for this silhouette because the illusion of longer legs and a higher waist is obvious.
- Tight-fitting but comfortable clothing: Clothes that fit well but are not too tight can flatter your figure and make you appear taller. Avoid baggy clothes as they can obscure your silhouette.
