“You’re lucky – you can wear anything with your figure!” You’ve probably heard this sentence before when you’re tall and have long legs. And of course it’s great, as a 1.80 meter woman, to always draw attention and lots of looks.
But – and this will surprise most small women – even big ones quarrel with themselves from time to time. Because you don’t always want to stand out from the crowd. Or would you like to wear killer heels, but then don’t want to bend down to your conversation partner at the party. Or because it seems almost impossible to find trousers of the right length.
Here we explain how you can avoid flood trousers and unwanted three-quarter sleeves and always show your best side as a tall woman.
Styling tips for tall women – that’s what matters
In general, we are big fans of the fashion motto: Wear what you feel like and what you like!
Of course, miniskirts look shorter on women with very long legs than on short women. But that’s not a problem – if you feel comfortable in it. If you are unsure whether the skirt is a tad too short, simply combine it with opaque tights.
As the name suggests, maxi dresses and skirts are made for maxi women with long legs. The current hippie trend suits you very well.
When it comes to trouser shapes, you have a free choice: drainpipe, boyfriend cut, flared jeans, Marlene trousers – everything suits you. If you like it classic, you should pay attention to the right length and, if in doubt, buy trousers in special tall sizes (see shopping tips below). The fashion-conscious can also simply jump on the current flood trousers trend and wear so-called “cropped jeans”.
When it comes to accessories, feel free to splurge! XXL statement chains, eye-catching rings, large shoppers look great on tall women.
