Petite girls are great (no offense to tall ones). Remember the magnificent Kylie Minogue (155 cm), Salma Hayek (157 cm), Shakira (150 cm), the Olsen sisters (155 cm), Madonna (158 cm) and many other star babes.

However, from time to time, all short girls want to be a little taller, at least visually. What clothes do you need to choose to add a couple of inches of height to yourself (heels don't count)?

1. Fitted clothing - yes. Baggy clothes - no


The short girl's style is slim elegance, so it is best to leave oversized clothes hanging in the store. Bulky items add weight to your silhouette and further reduce your height.

2. Dark colors - yes. Black color - no


4. High waist - yes. Low waist - no


The high waistline lengthens the legs and lengthens the silhouette. Therefore, we say "yes" to a high waist and "no" to a low waist, since the latter, on the contrary, makes the legs shorter.

5. Sheath dress - yes. Hoodie dress - no


A sheath dress is ideal for little girls. It fits perfectly on a slim figure (of course) and visually increases growth. Have you seen a beautiful hoodie dress? We pass by.

In the designer clothes boutique, you will find many models of dresses.

6. Skirts above the knee - yes. Midi skirts - no


The best option for women of short stature is skirts and dresses with a length just above the knee. Midi skirts, in turn, need to be treated with caution: wear them only with high heels. Otherwise, there is a risk of becoming like the princess of the gnomes.

7. Classic straight trousers - yes. Cropped trousers - no


I would like to say the same about jeans. Choose simple, slightly tapered models. Boyfriend jeans and any other baggy jeans won't work for you.

Check out the designer clothing boutique.

8. Short tops - yes. Tunics - no


Tunics are not suitable for girls of small stature. Better to wear a short blouse or a lovely crop top.

9. Short jackets or vests - yes. Long jackets or vests - no


Miniature ladies are advised to choose the same miniature jackets: they should not end below the waist. At the same time, little girls should not wear fashionable long vests - they will pull you down.

10. A coat to the knee - yes. Long coats - no


In late autumn and early spring, little girls should opt for elegant knee-length coats and avoid long models. By the way, .

11. Thin strap - yes. Wide belt - no


On the one hand, stylists advise miniature girls to emphasize their waist with a thin belt: this technique visually increases growth. On the other hand, it is not advisable to wear wide belts, as they have the opposite effect.

12. Vertical stripes - yes. Horizontal stripes - no


Your choice is a variety of prints with vertical stripes of any width and color. Such clothes not only lengthen the figure, but also slim. On the other hand, it's better to forget about horizontal prints. They reduce height and visually expand the figure.

13. Graceful boats - yes. Ankle strap - no


The most suitable shoes for you are neat flesh-colored pumps. These shoes not only lengthen your legs, but also go with any outfit. It is better not to wear massive shoes with huge heels: they look pretty ridiculous on little girls. Also, don't buy: they "cut" the leg and make it shorter.

14. Ankle boots - yes. Knee boots - no


Ankle boots suit little girls much more than high boots (we do not mean over the knee boots, namely boots that reach to the knee).

15. Small bags - yes. Massive bags - no


Maybe you're already used to huge bags that can hold a million unnecessary things. However, miniature girls are advised to carry the same miniature bags, otherwise it will seem that you yourself can climb into your bag.

    I only agree with cropped trousers and overalls, all the rest - no. Or you also need to take into account the type of figure. a petite skinny girl in a heavy maxi skirt, a voluminous sweater will look even more elegant, and a petite plump will really be a gnome.

    That is, you say that petite girls are beautiful, and then brand them as gnome princesses? As if being short is bad, and all your recommendations are just to look taller. This is somehow not very good. And the recommendations are questionable, especially about the length of the midi, cropped trousers, culottes, long coats, horizontal stripes. All this can and should be worn, it just needs to be done correctly too. And yes, this approach in style is possible / impossible, this is generally an edge. The dictatorship of fashion)

    Have mercy, ladies! All advice here or elsewhere is not a dogma, it is just the opinion of others. You can find out the weaknesses yourself. The first thing to do is to photograph your bow, and in different variations. You will see for yourself what does not look. I came to many points from the article myself and I agree unequivocally, but just knee-high boots suit me (just not as widened in the photo, but just on the leg), while there are absolutely no boots to the middle of the calf. Apply the principle: observe, compare, reflect

    Knee high boots, in the style of riding boots, especially with a wide and straight shaft, increases height and makes a person much slimmer. Of course, if worn as in the photo, with unsuccessful shorts, a jumper and bare legs, then the growth will seem less.

    I would like to add why girls can and should wear these disgusting tops? For example, I prefer normal sweatshirts and T-shirts that completely cover the belly.

    Thank you, thank you! But I would rather walk in the city or on vacation with a beautiful horizontal shopper bag than with a bunch of ugly plastic bags. I have worn and will continue to wear cropped denim skins and breeches, the main thing is that I always look stylish in them, as my husband says! And I also have a little black dress for the weekend, so that you would not advise there ... OK?

    Ksenia Belousova, I am small, 157 cm. Boots up to the knee suit me very much, but absolutely no ankle boots. Go below the knee coat. And pencil midi skirts.
