An image for a short girl. Pants style for short women: which ones to choose and where to buy

Good day, dear readers and blog guests!

Such skirts are popular with women and girls of different ages, religious beliefs and status. Are you wondering how you can look stylish with a maxi skirt and what kind of skirts are suitable for short girls? Then let's get started!

Checklist: how to buy the "correct" maxi-skirt for a petite girl

I have prepared for you a short checklist on what to consider when choosing a miniature maxi skirt, regardless of where you buy it: in an online store or in a regular shopping center.

  • Length
    The length should be higher than 1-1.5 cm from the floor with the shoes with which you plan to wear them. Those. if you go to the store, be sure to take with you exactly the shoes with which you will wear the skirt. When choosing in an online store, look at how tall the model is and in which shoes the model is in the photo. You can also measure yourself with a centimeter from the waist (or from the place where the skirt will "sit") to the floor in the shoes with which you plan to wear. If it seems to you that the skirt is too long, it's okay - you can hem it. But if it is shorter than necessary, then it is better to refuse the purchase.
  • We say no to horizontal lines!
    This is how the lines make the young lady shorter and fuller! Therefore, preference should be given to solid colors or monochrome and floral prints, where the pattern does not exceed the size of your fist. By the way, horizontal lines are not only prints, they can also be flounces, ruffles, horizontal pockets, etc.

  • The size. Choose your skirt size carefully. If it is larger, then you will look ridiculous and baggy in such clothes. Please note that if a thing fits you well, then it looks much more expensive. If you liked the skirt very much, but does not fit very well, then take it to the atelier.
  • Model. It is best to choose a model that sits at the waist. This will visually make the legs longer. Styles with a vertical cut are perfect for miniature girls. Such a line will visually extend the growth.
  • Shoes: You can hide very high heels or a platform under the maxi. I recommend using this!

Golden ratio rule

Leonardo Da Vinci created the theory of the proportion of the ideal person. According to his theory, a person's height is equal to the length of 8 of his heads. Leonardo also worked on the Fibonacci sequence in order to derive the so-called golden ratio (division in extreme and average ratio).

The golden proportion is found in everything that surrounds us: in snowflakes that fall from the sky, in snail shells, in fern leaves. But when it comes to the fashion world, these same proportions can help us look more attractive and balance our look.

So what does this mean? Fibonacci proportions

1: 2 2: 3 3: 5 5: 8 8:13 13:21 and so on. We are only interested in the first 3 proportions. The ratio of top and bottom, then the image will look harmonious. For petite girls with a long skirt, the ideal option is 3: 5. And now I will show an example in the photo so that my historical boringness can be applied to life.

What to do, for example, if you are going to wear such a skirt with a long blouse? Just accentuate your waist with a thin strap!

What are the dangers of long skirts?

Let's take a closer look at each style and decide which skirts are for little young ladies and what should be avoided.

  • Boho style.
    The length usually ends at the ankle and is ideal for petite girls. Boho-style skirts perfectly create the illusion that the young lady is taller and slimmer. You can wear strappy flat sandals, thick heels, or platform sandals on your feet. However, there are many horizontal prints and ruffles in the boho style. Let's take a closer look at which skirts are not suitable for us, miniature.

Skirt number 1 will precisely "cut" the length of your legs, and visually make you shorter. With maxi number 2, the situation is similar due to the wide color bands. But skirt number 3 is fraught with several dangers at once! First, a larger fist print will make you look even smaller. Low seating will break the ideal proportions and make the figure inharmonious. Horizontal stripes will still take a couple of visual centimeters away. Also, due to the print, problems can arise if you need to hem the hem.

But what kind of boho-style skirts are perfect.

  1. Noisy May Petite Chambray Maxi Skirt... Correct length, sits at the waist and is tailored for petite stature. All perfectly!
  2. Band Of Gypsies High Slit Satin Maxi Skirt... The skirt sits at the waist, there is a slit - all this visually stretches the growth. By the way, it is better for petite ones to either tuck a blouse into a skirt or choose a cropped top.
  3. Glamorous Festival Floral Print Maxi Skirt... Vertical stripes, fairly small print and cut, fit at the waist. An excellent option for short ladies.
  • Tulle maxi


Please note that such clothes should sit at the waist and should not be too fluffy. Maxi shoes made of tulle should be worn with high heels. I wrote about these types of skirts in the article.

By the way, look carefully at the photo: the same girl, by the way, her height is less than 160 cm, the same skirt ... But in photos 1 and 2 she looks taller, and her legs are longer. Why do you think? Write in the comments!

  • Jersey skirts

These skirts do not add volume and can even be worn with flat shoes. But these skirts also have their own cunning: they can often emphasize the weaknesses of the figure. Therefore, it is very important to wear them with seamless underwear, to select them strictly in size and so that nothing sticks out or sticks out anywhere. Jersey skirts are great for casual looks. If such a skirt has a vertical cut, then it will make you a little taller. You can find and order these for low stature in online store LOFT.

  • Asymmetrical.



In these skirts, one side of the hem is shorter than the other. This outfit is graceful for cocktail parties and evening walks. Also asymmetrical skirts are found in boho style. Avoid rough fabrics and bulky fabrics; fabrics should be lightweight and flowing. For petite ones, it is important that the shorter hem ends above the knee if you plan to wear it with flat shoes or if you want to visually make the legs longer. If the shorter hem ends below the kneecap, then high heels and / or platform are a must! Otherwise, you will look even lower and fuller than you really are.


I found very beautiful asymmetrical models here.

What can I wear with long skirts?

Skirts for girls of short stature must be correctly combined with other clothes so as not to look small and plump. If the poppies are voluminous enough, then try to keep the top fit, and also be sure to wear heels or platform shoes. What will a maxi skirt always look great with?

  • Tight Tees / Tees, Crop Tops & Bandeau.
    It is best to choose T-shirts with a V or U-neck, and for an evening version, a bandeau top is perfect. It is best to tuck tops into a skirt.

To make the look with the most ordinary T-shirt look more interesting, just complement it with beautiful accessories - a necklace, scarf or brooch.

  • Knitted sweaters.
    If the weather is cold, then it is best to wear a cropped sweater with a non-bulky knit. If you decide to wear a more voluminous and long sweater, then it is better to grab the waist with a strap. This trick will help you keep the shape in the correct proportions.

  • Cropped blazers, cardigans and jackets.
    Cropped jackets and jackets with sleeves ¾ will look beautiful (and if the sleeve is normal, just tuck it up or roll it up). Long jackets are acceptable (eg parkas) as long as they can be fitted.
  • Blouses and shirts.
    Blouses and shirts are harmoniously combined that reach the waist. The most daring young ladies prefer to tie such clothes in the form of a knot at the waist. And it will look so elegant if such an outfit is emphasized with a thin belt.

A little tip:
If you do not know how and where to buy such clothes, then I advise you to look through such online stores as ASOS,Topshop and Loft.

So, with this I say goodbye to you! I am sure that you are already looking for a suitable outfit for yourself. Don't forget to subscribe to my blog! And, of course, share this post with your friends on social networks! Always be in trend!

Often, owners of small stature try in every possible way to look taller than they really are. And this desire can be understood. However, not knowing some important points, you can not only fail to achieve the set task, but, conversely, spoil your appearance. What is worth knowing and what mistakes to avoid when choosing clothes for a short girl?

So, today the stylists of our fashion site will tell and show how to dress petite girls of short stature in order to look proportional, spectacular and beautiful.

Your main butt is to visually slightly stretch the silhouette, lengthen your legs a little to make the figure more effective.

The most important rule for short girls is not to overload the image. Give preference to light and graceful sets with neat accessories.

Correct designs and patterns

It is known that vertical stripes visually lengthen the figure. This rule works not only with stripes, but also with any vertical patterns and elements: a row of buttons arranged appropriately, arrows on trousers, and even zippers.

In turn, horizontal stripes, large patterns and variegated ornaments visually make the figure heavier, making it more bulky and awkward.

V-neck

T-shirts and T-shirts with a V-neck should be an indispensable element of your wardrobe. This does not mean that clothes with a round or square neckline are not worth looking at. But it is precisely such a neckline that is able not only to visually lengthen your silhouette, but also to favorably emphasize the chest. At the same time, by decorating the neck with a long pendant, you will only benefit.

But it is better to completely refuse from bulky things with a blind collar or a voluminous collar.

Cheeky mini

In the warm season, you should not hide your legs under the midi length; this is very important when choosing clothes for petite women. Feel free to wear short skirts, dresses, sundresses and shorts - the more exposed areas of the body, the longer your legs seem.

Super maxi

Many girls of short stature avoid dresses and skirts to the floor, believing that they do not suit little girls. And in vain! Medium length is not your option, but super maxi visually stretch the silhouette perfectly. And if you still wear shoes with heels or wedges, then immediately add yourself a couple of tens of centimeters.

Tone on tone

Another simple but effective visual technique that allows you to visually increase growth is clothing of the same tone. Want to make your legs look longer? Wear shoes that match your tights or leather for the warm season. If you want to visually lengthen the figure, wear the top and bottom of the same color. It's that simple!

High waist

Dresses, trousers, shorts and high-waisted skirts are in fashion today, which suits you. After all, it is this style that suits you especially!

Outerwear

When choosing outerwear, you should give priority to things with long sleeves. They will visually lengthen the arms, which, in turn, will add sophistication to the image. Avoid items with bulky shoulders and oversized décor.

Choosing shoes

The choice of footwear should also be taken seriously ... Without a doubt, heeled shoes are perfect for petite girls. However, the main thing here is not to overdo it. Too high heels and too thick a sole can counter the effect, making you look squat and awkward. Nevertheless, do not give up wedge shoes. If the overall style looks neat and elegant, then you can safely wear such shoes.

The right accessories

When choosing jewelry, miniature girls should give preference to refined and discreet products. You should avoid bright and bulky jewelry, wide belts, large bags. The accessories you choose should delicately highlight your fragility and femininity.

Clearly in size, strictly in shape

Try to always choose things that would fit perfectly on your figure. This is often difficult, we understand. And the pants are too long, and the sleeves are larger than necessary. But on you such little things will be especially noticeable, they will only once again emphasize the short stature. Personally, we don't think this is a bad thing, but if your goal is to visually increase your height, then avoid things that are out of size. You can always cut, hem and tuck everything.

Petite girls are considered touching and more feminine, so you should not be complex because of their height, but, on the contrary, turn it into your zest.

Class

I want to make a reservation right away - I do not consider small growth to be a disadvantage. But there are times when women need to appear taller (for example, to be taken more seriously as a leader, etc.)

Rule one - concentrate the attention of others on the upper body

Because most of those around you look up at you, it is important that their gaze is focused as high as possible. Remember such a technique in the image as a compositional center. Putting on a skirt with a bright print, or, even more unfortunate, bright shoes, you automatically catch the attention of others. The gaze of people will slide over you from top to bottom, and you will seem even lower than you really are.

Compare these two photos - they are the same girl. In the first case, a bright floral print was used for the top (top), and when we look at this photo, our look goes back to the floral top. In the second case, the floral print was used for the trousers, and we automatically look down at the trousers.

From this we conclude that short women need to dress so that the upper point of your body is the center of attention. Use a collar, choker / necklace, earrings, glasses, headpiece as accents. And then the interlocutor will look you in the eyes, and not slide over your figure with a gaze from top to bottom.

The hairstyle is of great importance. Shorter women are more suitable for shoulder-length hair or long hair that is raised up. Thus, the attention of others will be focused on the face.

Rule two - decide on the type of figure

So, we found out that your top (in particular, your face) is what gives the main idea of ​​you to those around you. The second most important item is your figure. Most stylists agree that everyone, without exception, should emphasize the waist. However, very often short women seem to be "overloaded" at the waist due to fitted jackets, fluffy skirts and wide belts. One of the reasons for short stature is a shortened chest, which leads to an underestimated chest line and visually makes the waist wider. If small stature is combined with fullness and the waist, as such, no - you should not focus on it, it is better to choose clothes of a straight cut. Clothes with an accentuated waist are suitable only for those short women who have this waist is narrow in comparison with the hips, and at the same time high breasts.

As you can see, there are many nuances when choosing clothes for short women, so let's look at the point with the type of figure in more detail.

Conventionally, the types of figures of short women can be divided into three categories: a figure of straight outlines, a figure of conical outlines and a figure of curved outlines.

The figure of straight outlines

Women with a straight figure can be either slender or plump. Thin people can tuck their tops (shirts, tops) into skirts or pants and wear a belt. At the same time, the clothes should be straight cut. Overweight should avoid clothes tucked under the belt and it is undesirable to generally emphasize the waist.

Shape of conical outlines

On short women with a figure of tapered outlines, because of the shortened chest and low chest, clothes that do not strongly emphasize the waist look good, but only outline it - these are semi-fitted coats, jackets, dresses and blouses. If there is a desire to emphasize the waist, narrow straps / belts are preferable than wide ones. With excessive fullness, the distance between the chest and waist decreases, and a figure with conical outlines can turn into a figure with straight outlines.

Curved shape

In short women with a figure of curved outlines, due to the elongated chest and high chest line, the waist seems more pronounced. This means that they can wear emphatically fitted clothes, emphasize the waist with wide belts, a peplum, a fluffy skirt, etc. Clothes that are completely straight in cut are not suitable for such women. But if you have a desire to wear a straight-cut jacket, for example, wear it open. With excessive weight, a curved shape can turn into a conical shape.

Choice of fabric

Short women should be careful about the choice of fabric. The fabric can add unnecessary volume. Avoid quilted jackets, chunky knits, mohair and bouclé. It's better to choose a few thin knitwear (like a two-piece suit) than a thick mohair sweater. Warm underwear in the cold season will be a good find for short women. It will warm, and at the same time will not make the short torso massive. Taking into account the types of figures, then for a figure of straight outlines, rigid fabrics with a dense weave are better suited, and flowing fabrics should be heavy. For a conical shape, hard, but not very heavy fabrics, or flowing, light fabrics are suitable. For a curved shape, soft, well-draped fabrics, or hard but light fabrics are suitable.

Rule three - play with proportions

Once you have decided on a suitable silhouette, I propose to find out how you can visually change the proportions. What is it for? In order to visually stretch out certain parts of the body, and appear, accordingly, higher.

The play of proportions is an art. Having mastered it, you will learn, for example, how the human eye perceives lines in different directions. Take a look at the picture below.

The line on the left appears to be longer (and thinner) on the right, although they are exactly the same. This is because the eye, by inertia, runs some distance beyond the protruding ramifications. And on the line to the right, the eye traces the vertical to the end, and then it is attracted back to the inward ramifications.

Likewise, the eye follows the horizontal line, lengthening it. Therefore, short and overweight women should avoid horizontal lines in clothes, which will visually make them fuller and shorter.

Based on all of the above rules, you should remember that:

Vertical lines make you taller;

Horizontal lines make you wider, which means lower;

Upward-facing details make you taller;

Downward facing details make you appear lower.

If we talk about color in the context of how to dress for short women, then it is already known that dark colors have the property of slimming, which means they can make them higher, and light colors, on the contrary, make them look fat and make them lower. Matte fabrics - also slim and make them taller, shiny - plump and make them shorter.

Rule four - remember the scale

We have already talked about the scale once in this article.

But let's remember something. There are two figures in the photo. The center circles in these shapes are the same size, but the one on the right appears to be smaller because the circles around it are larger and suppress it.

The same applies to short women - large details, accessories and prints make short women even smaller. Therefore, small details, decorations, prints are more suitable for them. But this is only if the woman is thin. If short stature is combined with fullness, then it is better to opt for medium-sized accessories, jewelry and prints. Since small details can make such a woman visually wider and lower.

I propose to see how the style rules for short women listed in this article work in practice.

Given: a woman of short stature with a tapered body type

In the first photo we can see a cleverly used shirt trick peeking out from under the cropped jumper - thus lengthening the short torso. The main accents are in the upper part of the body - a hat, glasses, a handbag. It is to these accents that the gaze returns, not sliding down, which means, not paying attention to the short stature.

In the second photo, we see an example of improperly fitted clothing. A horizontal strip on a light shiny fabric visually expands, which means it makes it lower.

Given: a girl of short stature with a tapered body type

In the first photo, an unbuttoned elongated vest over a shirt and jeans creates an additional vertical, due to which the girl looks taller. The medium-sized bag does not suppress the girl's height.

In the second photo, a horizontal striped top with a high waistline and a peplum visually makes the girl more stocky. The large bag inhibits the height of the girl.

Given: a girl of short stature with a straight body type

The first photo shows a black dress with a straight cut wrap. The dress hangers, contrasting in color, are the main accent that attracts attention. An additional accent is a leopard-print clutch that the girl holds at the top of her figure. Thus, the gaze does not slide down, but returns up, without focusing on the small stature of the girl.

In the second photo, a girl in a skirt that attracts attention to herself, which means she makes her gaze slide down. The absence of the waist is accentuated by the contrasting color of the strap. The bag is below the hips. Those. made all the mistakes that are mentioned in the rules for short women.

I hope this article will help you avoid such mistakes, and you will be able to present yourself favorably in front of others.

A skirt is versatile, feminine, attractive and very comfortable wardrobe item, appropriate for all styles and situations. There are a great variety of styles and models. Mini, midi, bell, pencil - these are all skirts. These clothes are perfect for sweaters, blouses, shirts, tops. To look stylish in it, it is important to choose the right style, type of fabric, colors, suitable top and fashion accessories.

Skirts for short women

Tiny girls most often want to visually add a few centimeters of height and look more feminine. The best and easiest way to achieve the desired result is to choose the right skirt.

Girls with small stature can wear almost all models, only in this case, certain nuances must be taken into account.

Before choosing a suitable skirt for a short woman, you need to know what styles of such clothes exist.

Pencil skirt (case)

This model fits the figure and is narrowed downwards. This style can be safely called a modern classic. This is the perfect skirt style for short women.

These products are sewn from different fabrics:

  • Suit fabric. It is better to choose a material containing elastane. These skirts fit better on the figure, keep their shape and do not wrinkle.
  • Knitwear. Perfectly emphasizes both the positive and negative sides of the figure, so such skirts should be chosen carefully.
  • Velours. When choosing a skirt, you need to take into account the density and texture of the fabric.
  • Guipure, lace, mesh on top of the case. These skirts look graceful and feminine.
  • Leather. It allows you to create a very stylish look.
  • Denim. These skirts are perfect for everyday wear.

There are three main lengths of skirts: mini, midi and maxi. The most suitable skirt length for short women is mini and midi.

Skirts are often made with a slit. He might be:

  • In front.
  • In the side seam (or on the sides there are 2 cuts).
  • On the front middle seam.
  • At the back middle seam.
  • On the thigh.

There may be pockets on the skirt (patch, side, trompe l'oeil).

Today, high-waisted models are in vogue.

A-line skirts

This skirt is widened downwards. This group includes many subspecies. Skirts of this style look great on all types of figures, just choose the right length, fabric and color.

A-line skirt

The most fashionable models: high waist, mini length.

Elongated skirts also look quite stylish and fresh. Patch pockets, button closure, eyelets, ties are details that are popular among fashionistas.

Half-sun skirt

Slightly wider at the bottom than the trapezoid. Skirts made of flowing materials look very beautiful: silk, crepe-chiffon, soft, etc. Among fashionistas, products made of lace, made of several layers of material, are also popular.

Flared sun

They are made in the shape of a circle. Chiffon and silk floor-length models look beautiful. Basic colors: cream, light gray and beige. These skirts are feminine, attractive and perfect for both a romantic look and a casual style.

Bell skirt

They are distinguished by the presence of wide embossed folds that create a bell shape. Heavy, form-fitting fabrics work well for such a skirt. The skirt can be plain with a contrasting belt or with a pattern. Flowers, stripes, tropical leaves are relevant today.

The length of the bell skirt can be from maxi to mini. The following models are perfect for girls with a poorly defined waistline: "rectangle", "apple", "column". The style helps to visually highlight the difference between the waist and hips. In addition, it makes it possible to hide unnecessary centimeters on the hips for girls with hourglass and pear shapes.

  • Not very wide, more like a belt.
  • Curly or asymmetrical.

The base of the skirt is:

  • With an extended back (tail).
  • With several frills.
  • With warehouses (bell-shaped).

Year

With smell

No less interesting and popular style, ideally emphasizing attractiveness and sexuality. Suiting fabrics, viscose, jersey, cotton are used for sewing.

Choosing a skirt by type of figure

When choosing a skirt for short women, it is very important to know the type of figure. This will help you choose the right style, length and details of this garment, visually improving the proportions of the silhouette. If you know your body type and choose the right clothes for it, you can visually appear taller than you really are.

The wrong choice of skirt can play not in favor of the girl. This is especially true for ladies with pear and apple figures. A skirt that is poorly chosen for a short woman can visually make her hips even wider. If a lady has a pear shape (wide hips, narrow shoulders), she will seem even lower, because she will acquire unnecessary volumes in the abdomen. Girls with an "apple" figure will visually become even lower and rounder.

The best models of skirts for short women are pleated again. Due to the large number of small vertical folds, such products are able to visually stretch the figure. Sheath skirts will also look good on low girls. Due to the high waist, they visually add height. A special effect can be achieved by pairing them with V-neck blouses. A vertical section will be able to visually stretch the figure.

For short girls with a pear-shaped figure, you can take a closer look at a-line skirts and pencil skirts. It is better to choose perfectly straight models, without wrinkles.

If a girl has an inverted triangle body type, a tulip skirt is well suited for her. A good option is a pencil skirt in light colors. If you wish, you can experiment and choose options with a large print and overlay details on the hips. Such models are visually capable of lengthening the legs a little.

What should be the length

The skirt, ending at the calves, visually pulls the silhouette down, shortens it. In addition, the legs are also visually shortened. At the same time, the caviar, on which the most attention is concentrated, look overly massive.

The most ideal skirt length for short women is above the knee. If a girl is embarrassed to wear such clothes, you can add leggings or tights to the ensemble.

But this does not mean at all that longer models are prohibited. They just need to be correctly combined with other clothes and choose the most suitable style, which will emphasize not too tall growth in the most favorable way.

For example, a long skirt that fits tight to the thighs will look much better than a straight and shapeless maxi skirt. In this case, it is also better to wear shoes with heels, in which you can wear clothes to the floor.

If a short girl is very slender, she can choose fluffy short skirts that keep their shape. Such clothes will not lengthen the legs, but will perfectly emphasize the graceful thin waist.

Straight miniskirts and short skirts will also look good. They will emphasize the diminutiveness and elegance of the legs. In addition, a product with smell.

Long models are desirable to wear with wedges or high heels. However, such skirts for short, overweight women should be chosen carefully. Midi skirts are suitable for heels, especially mid-calf length.

What clothes are not worth choosing

Bell skirts, products with an asymmetrical and uneven hem, as well as multi-layered styles for girls, it is advisable to bypass the girls. In addition, you should not choose things that have horizontal lines and very large prints.

Colors and details

It should be remembered that bulky things overload the silhouette, choosing skirts for short women. Photos of many models are offered in the article. Looking at them, you can understand what will be preferable for you. Short girls should give preference to simpler models or choose details and motives that visually increase their height.

Choose skirts with the following elements:

  • Vertical drawing.
  • Vertical details: zipper and stitching along the product, vertical rows of buttons, vertical ruffles.
  • Folds.
  • Small prints, motifs and details.

Choosing a skirt

Since a skirt is a basic item, its choice should be taken very responsibly.

  • Slender short girls with correct body proportions.

For such short women, midi skirts are not the best option. They crush the figure, making it shorter.

  • Overweight women.

For them, a strict, straight cut and dense suiting or gabardine are suitable. Such skirts will not emphasize problem areas, but will delicately outline attractive curves. The look will be very feminine.

It is better to refuse wide styles, as they will make the silhouette wider.

  • Thin.

Such girls can choose short skirts, flared at the bottom, knee-length. Additional decorative elements may include gathers, folds, flounces, which will add volume to the hips and make the figure more feminine.

Mid-length straight skirts are not quite suitable for skinny short girls.

Today, choosing the perfect skirt for women below 160 cm is not difficult. A huge selection of such things is presented in stores today. You just need a desire and a little time, then the most suitable style will be found from a huge number of models.

All women want to look beautiful and stylish. However, what do you do if you are a beauty with short stature? It is just important to choose clothes that will favorably emphasize the natural beauty and dignity of such a figure. Knowing a few tricks when shaping your wardrobe, you will always look spectacular, modern and fashionable.

Wardrobe of girls of short stature: which dresses and skirts to choose

For girls of short stature, a sheath dress is ideal. Therefore, if your figure permits, you should wear clothes with a fitted silhouette.

Try to always choose things that would fit perfectly on your figure. The short girl's style is slim elegance, so don't wear oversized clothes.

Also a good option for petite ladies is skirts with a length just above the knee. By choosing these models, your legs will appear longer.

Clothing for small girls: the right length

The most advantageous length for your proportions: above the knee (if the shape and situation allows), mid-knee and floor length. So, if you are not wearing short skirts, you can give preference to supermaxis. Long, non-voluminous skirts, light and flowing, increase visually growth and stretch the silhouette. And if you still wear shoes with heels or wedges, then immediately add yourself a couple of tens of centimeters.

How to dress small girls: which pants to choose

Classic straight pants of medium width will help to visually increase the height. Give preference to high-waisted models, especially since they are back in trend. A small flare from the hip will also work well on small women. For jeans, choose a model that is tapered to the bottom.

Wardrobe of girls of short stature: what to choose T-shirts, blouses and jackets

T-shirts, T-shirts, tops and blouses with a V-neck should be indispensable elements of your wardrobe, as they create a visual vertical. Another advantage of this type of neckline is that it lengthens the neckline.

Jackets, sweaters, blouses with three-quarter sleeves are also suitable for petite ladies. Choosing such models, your arms will be visually slimmer and longer.

Clothes for girls of small stature: which coat to choose

Little girls need to opt for elegant knee-length coats with decorative seams and grooves that go up and down from the waist, they will visually help to stretch the figure. When choosing outerwear, it is especially important that the shoulder seams are in place and that there are vertical lines. Vertical lines, stripes, patterns can be in prints, decorative inserts, with contrasting fasteners - smell, a number of buttons, zipper. Such clothes not only lengthen the figure, but also slim.

How to dress small girls: how to choose accessories

As for accessories, they also help to create vertical lines and visually increase growth. Jewelry for girls of small stature: elongated pendants, earrings-threads. Choose light, thin, narrow scarves with the correct pattern or contrasting color to the overall tone of the outfit, neatly thrown around the neck. Thin straps, belts will delicately emphasize your fragility and femininity. An excellent choice is a small handbag on a chain or a clutch that is proportional to your figure.

Clothes for girls of small stature: which shoes to choose

The easiest way to lengthen your legs and look taller is with heels. But, if you want to enhance the illusion of lengthening, choose shoes that match the leather or tights. The deep cut of the shoes also contributes to the lengthening of the legs, but the rounded toe of the shoes will make the legs miniature and neat.

Short girls' wardrobe: the right colors

An easy way to look taller and slimmer is with monochrome outfits. They are now at their peak of popularity. Create kits using one color. In this case, the color vertical will become your faithful assistant on the way to a slender, harmonious image.


Knowing a few rules, your dignity will become even brighter and remember that each person is individual and this is the whole beauty.
