Let's start with men. The smallest of the famous Russians is cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, whose height is 1 m 57 cm.

Some musicians are also below average height. For example, the leader of the Lube group Nikolay Rastorguev (1 m 58 cm), Andrey Gubin (1 m 66 cm), Vladimir Vysotsky (1 m 70 cm), Boris Moiseev (1 m 72 cm), Nikolai Baskov (1 m 73 cm ). Among the actors on this list are Anton Bogdanov, Evgeny Stychkin (both - 1 m 72 cm), Mikhail Galustyan (1 m 63 cm), Alexander Yakin (1 m 66 cm), Alexander Tsekalo (1 m 67 cm), Timur Rodriguez ( 1 m 68 cm), Pavel Derevyanko (1 m 70 cm).

Short stature and some well-known politicians. The growth of Joseph Stalin, for example, was only 1 m 62 cm, Dmitry Medvedev - 1 m 63 cm, and Vladimir Putin - 1 m 70 cm.

Among writers and poets, Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol (1 m 60 cm), Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin (1 m 61 cm), Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky and Sergei Yesenin were 1 m 68 cm tall.

Russian short female stars

Among famous women the lowest is a member of the Tatu group Yulia Volkova - her height is only 1 m 54 cm.

Actress Svetlana Svetikova has a height of 1 m 57 cm, and Yulia Savicheva and Anna Khilkevich are 1 m 59 cm.

Good day, dear guests and subscribers of my blog! In one of the articles I already wrote. And I think that actresses deserve special attention. vertically challenged.

Looking at the stars, you understand that small stature is not a hindrance to being successful and stylish. Let's take a look at their outfits and how they dress for the red carpet.

Stylish life hacks from Hollywood actresses

In Hollywood, there are many petite beauties of both the 20th century and modern beautiful and stylish actresses who have managed to win the hearts of many fans and fashionistas.

After all, it's no secret that most girls take an example from their idols. Let's take a look at the list, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised that these women are really short!

On the red carpet, Reese prefers to go out in dresses that have a small train.

A note to the graduate and the bride: a small train makes you visually taller!

If the event is not so solemn, then Reese chooses more restrained outfits without unnecessary details. She prefers to complement dresses with sandals or classic pumps.


IN Everyday life Reese dresses elegantly and tastefully. On the streets, she can be seen talking on the phone or walking with her husband. Reese's favorite combination: skirt, blouse and pumps. You can see this more clearly in the photo below.


Hayden Panettiere

The height of this baby is 155 cm, and her weight is 50 kg. In everyday life, the actress prefers to dress modestly: tops, jeans, sweatshirts, leggings, shorts and tunics. The only thing Hayden does not change is high heels.


For special occasions, Hayden chooses floor-length dresses that emphasize her figure. Please note that she prefers models with a slightly high waist. Despite the fact that Hayden is plump, looking at her, it's hard to think about it. And all thanks to the right cut and visual correction of the figure.


Eva Longoria

Eve's height is 157 cm and she weighs 47 kg. Eva prefers to wear tight dresses with a deep V-neck. And on her feet she puts shoes on high heels. And she looks, mind you, always brilliant!


Anna Kedrick

Anna has the same height and weight as Eve. Anna became famous after starring in the movie "Twilight".

When the actress wears dresses for special occasions, she chooses models that emphasize the waist or slightly above her natural line, and also chooses dresses with slits. So she visually lengthens her height.


Zoe Kravitz

With a height of 157 cm and a weight of 51 kg, she looks amazing. Lenny Kravitz's daughter is an actress and singer, and has starred in a number of famous Hollywood films. In order to visually stretch her height, she prefers to wear clothes in one color scheme, chooses dresses with a deep V-shaped neckline, slits, trains.


In everyday life, Zoe prefers comfortable things in which she feels comfortable.


Kristin Chenoweth

There is no exact information about her height, and according to various sources, her height ranges from 148 to 150 cm. Christine is one of the smallest stars. The actress is not at all complex about her height, and she has made herself a dizzying career as an actress and singer, she has her own star on the Walk of Fame.

IN ordinary life She wears tight jeans and high heels. She wears dresses and skirts just above the knee, and she tries to choose V-shaped cutouts.

And on the red carpet, you can see her in beautiful glamorous floor-length dresses that do not hide her height at all! Please note that Christine styled her hair in a high hairstyle that creates additional volume in the parietal region. With this, she adds a couple more visual centimeters to her height.


Salma Hayek

Who doesn't know Salma Hayek? Personally, I just love it! Hot Mexican has already been able to work as a producer, actress and director. In each role, she gives all her best, thanks to which she has become a sought-after and popular actress. Her height is 158 cm and her weight is 46 kg.

In everyday life, Salma prefers feminine style, but at the same time appreciates comfort.

But on the red carpet, she successfully demonstrates her taste, while correctly placing accents with the help of accessories.


Sarah Jessica Parker

With a height of 160 cm, her weight is 48 kg. The actress became famous for her role as Carrie Bradshaw in the TV series “Sex in big city". Despite the fact that Sarah is not considered a beauty, but she is one of the most stylish stars!

In everyday life, Sarah prefers to wear comfortable clothes: T-shirts, jackets, jeans and sneakers. Let's look at the photo, how to choose the right outfit for short stature in Street Style.


On the red carpet, Sarah mostly wears shiny or puffy dresses. Please note that Sarah often pulls her hair up, thus making her height visually higher.


Not only in Hollywood there are little beauties!

And in Russia there are actresses who can boast of small stature!

Anna Khilkevich

Let's look at the outfits of Anna Khilkevich?

With a height of 159, Anna weighs 49 kg. She became famous for her role in the series "Univer". Personally, I do not really like Anna's style, but nevertheless, this attractive and talented girl does not look short in the photos. A well-groomed and neat appearance and good posture are much more important than short stature.


Certainly, Russian stars short stature is less than in the west, but nevertheless they are not afraid to be in the spotlight and consider their diminutiveness to be a great advantage.

Audrey Tautou

The cute French actress has a short stature - 160 cm. Audrey became famous thanks to the film "Amelie". And in 2009, she played Coco Chanel in the biopic!

Audrey has earned the attention of fashion critics who speak positively about her. Despite the fact that she has the appearance of a child, she knows how to teach herself with chic. See how she dresses for the red carpet.


Audrey is not afraid of the midi, and you have to give her credit, so dangerous for petite girls its length does not spoil and does not make it lower. Pay attention to the shoes - these are always shoes that do not contrast with the color of the legs: silver, gold or nude.

Audrey knows how to feel the style, while she dresses in a peculiar way. In the photo on the left, a bold V-neck shirt and black trousers look stylish and daring. In order to make the image more interesting, Audrey added it with beads.


Shared style secrets from actresses

In order to really dress with taste and chic, not only in everyday life, but also at gala evenings, you should learn a few rules.

  • Never rush!

Most girls prefer to dress before going out, while giving preference to what they think is fashionable or comfortable. In fact, they make a mistake. In order to carefully consider the image, you should create successful combinations in advance.

  • Why is it useful to take pictures?

If you have not yet formed your own style, then ask someone close to photograph you every time you create an image. Looking at yourself in the mirror, it is difficult to criticize yourself. But in the photo - the advantages and disadvantages are easy to highlight. Therefore, analyze each image, and discard unsuccessful options for bows. Thus, sooner or later you will be able to create the perfect kits.

  • Form your own taste.

In order to form your own taste, you need to decide which style suits you, as well as “your” colors. Thus, you will begin to understand what suits you specifically. See as many photos of stars, bloggers, movie heroines as possible, flip through fashion magazines and highlight what you like. And then figure it out for your image: whether such a color, style, style will suit you or not. Try and experiment, try on as many clothes as possible in stores and photograph successful images.

On this, I say goodbye to you! Do not forget to comment, subscribe to the blog and share my articles with your friends on social networks!

Bye bye!

You can also do something else with plastic surgery, then there is no way to increase a couple of centimeters of growth. It immediately becomes clear why many celebrities wear high heels even in everyday life. ELLE decided to compile a list of stars whose height is far from model standards - and yet this did not stop them from making a dizzying career and surpassing their taller competitors.

Height - 156 cm


I remember that some 15 years ago, the public was perplexed: what did Ryan Phillippe, who gave so many hopes at that time, find in this little blonde? But time has shown: Reese is not at all ready to be on the sidelines with a handsome husband, and she quickly proved that she is much more talented and more able-bodied than her husband (now with the prefix "ex"). Confirmation of this was the Oscar statuette for Best Actress, which now adorns the shelf of one of her mansions.

Christina is 6 centimeters shorter than her main musical rival Britney Spears. But this did not stop her from bypassing the pop princess of the early 2000s in terms of the number of Grammy statuettes: Christina has six, and Britney has only one.

Height - 159 cm

Unlike her younger half-sisters, Kim cannot boast of a physique and height suitable for model parameters. That's why the reality show star "Keeping up with the Kardashians" almost never wears flat shoes. Although, as we know, this does not prevent her from periodically appearing on the covers of the most authoritative glossy publications and having 55 million followers on Instagram.

Height - 160 cm


Recall that it was to the undersized Vanessa Paradis that Johnny Depp left the Golden Globe supermodel for a 20-year career (and now the actress is only 34 years old). But it is important to note that it is she who is often set as an example to colleagues in the shop. By the way, there is even a joke on the net: if the producers do not have enough budget to invite Portman, then they call the agents of Keira Knightley, who, by the way, is much more suitable for the description of the fatal long-legged beauty with her model parameters of 82x62x85 with a height of 170 centimeters .

There has not yet been a single director who could resist the charms of this blonde. And in order to look seductive, Scarlett is not needed at all. long legs from the ears and a wasp waist: her femininity and charisma completely overshadow the lack of growth.
