Here at Long Tall Sally, we are all about empowering taller women and making shopping for tall women a breeze. Finding clothing that actually fits your figure and body type can sometimes be a real challenge as no two women are the same! That’s why we have created the ultimate guide and rounded up the best styling tips for tall women.

Whether you’re looking for the best outfits for tall ladies or simply just looking for some advice on what should tall ladies wear – we have all the fashion picks for taller women.

3 Styling Top Tips for Tall Women:

  • Understand your body shape- Knowing which body shape you are can be really helpful when you are looking to upgrade your wardrobe, are you apple shaped, pear, hourglass, triangle, or rectangle?
  • Know your measurements – As we spoke about in our previous blog ‘How To Find The Perfect Fit For Tall Jeans‘ knowing inseam lengths, arm lengths, and hip measurements can be really useful especially when shopping for properly fitted clothing.
  • Understand your proportions – Knowing whether you have longer legs and a shorter torso, or vice versa is essential when shopping for your frame.

Define Your Waist

Whilst it’s perfect to buy longer pieces to highlight your stunning height, opt for clothing with a higher waist or that has a waist cinching belt. If you can’t find anything, you can always style your outfit with a belt to create an illusion of a glamorous hourglass shape.

Heels

Have you been told to avoid wearing heels as it’ll make you look ‘taller’? Or, you might have stayed away from them altogether. Well, we say – don’t! What’s not to love about embracing your height and styling some stunning stilettos at the same time. They will aid in elongating your legs and make your feet look smaller.
