Tall women sometimes find it difficult to find clothes that fit. Finding cute shoes can be a nightmare in itself, not to mention pants, sleeves, and skirts that are too short.

Maximize your height potential by emphasizing the appearance of your long legs, focusing on fit and proportion, and you're ready to walk with confidence.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Maximizing Appearance
Step 1. Determine your body proportions
Your legs and upper body may be the same length, your legs may be shorter with a long body, or vice versa a shorter upper body with superlong legs. This difference in body proportions affects what you should buy and wear.
Step 2. Stand up straight
Even if you dress well, you won't look attractive with bad posture. Tall women tend to bend over to appear shorter. This posture will only make you look insecure and weak. Straighten your shoulders and stand up straight, imagining a thread pulling your head upwards.
Step 3. Find the right place to shop
Certain brands are known to cater to the needs of tall women. You can also get more choices if you shop online. Find a brand that exclusively caters to tall women's clothing needs so it's easier for you to get clothes that fit your size.

Basically, skinny jeans and pencil pants were created for tall women. The cut is not only longer, but also looks beautiful on women with long legs. Even if the pants are a little short, you can roll them up and make them look intentional. This type of pants is best suited for showing off your shoes.
- Don't wear capri pants. This model of pants will look like pants that are too small because they don't fit in your calves.
- You can also wear wide-cut pants as long as the length is appropriate.
Step 2. No need to be ashamed of wearing high heels
Wearing shoes without heels will not be able to cover your tall body. Just wear high heels if you want. High heels will make your legs longer, lift your buttocks, and actually make your feet look smaller.
- If you're not comfortable wearing high heels, start with low heels.
- High heels will make you look confident, elegant, and sexy.
Step 3. Wear high-waisted bottoms or wide belts

Step 4. Wear big and flashy accessories
With a large bag, a small woman will look like a child playing with her mother's. On the other hand, bulky accessories are perfect for tall women. So, wear a big, flashy necklace or a big bag.
Step 5. Get creative with patterns and patterns
With a tall body, patterns and patterns will look beautiful without looking too much. In order not to look towering, match it with appropriate bottoms, for example a patterned shirt with long black pants, or tops and bottoms of different colors.
Wearing tops and bottoms in one color (monochrome) will make you look taller
Step 6. When buying a shirt, pay attention to the length of the sleeves and the hem
Sleeves and hems that are too short will look like clothes that are too small. Look for shirts that are at least waist-length, unless you're buying a crop-top model.
Look for a 3/4 sleeve top or make one with rolled up sleeves that looks a little too short
Step 7. You can wear a long or short dress or skirt, as long as it's not too short
Long skirts look beautiful on tall women, and short skirts will show off her beautiful long legs. Avoid skirts or dresses that are too short to cover your bottom or underwear because you don't want to show it. Remember that a short dress that looks tempting to a short woman will look inappropriate if it is worn by a tall woman.
