Are you 1.75 m or taller and have long legs? Actually, you have a dream figure that many shorter women envy - and yet tall women often find it difficult to find the right clothes. Because what the models wear at Fashion Week is tailored exactly to their size. In the store, however, the sizes correspond to the average woman - who in Germany is just 1.64 m tall. In the following article, we have put together five styling tips for you and show you how to make the most of the many advantages of your figure - and avoid high-water pants and sleeves that are too short.
Styling tip 1: The perfect trouser shape
That's right, it's great for a tall woman to attract attention in a great outfit. Unfortunately, it sometimes seems almost impossible to find the right styling combination for longer than average legs. Even the search for trousers in the right length is often an odyssey.
No matter whether you're tall or short - of course, shopping is always about your own style. In addition, women of the same size also differ from body type to body type. In any case, tall women look stunning in timeless Marlene trousers, suit trousers or skinny jeans. While fashionistas can opt for the current high-water trousers trend and wear cropped jeans, lovers of classic cuts should look around in special tall shops. The rule here is: the longer the better, because long trousers emphasize long legs and conceal problem areas.
Do you love your height and want to emphasize it? High-waisted pants are ideal for this, as they make long legs look even longer. Do you want to look a little shorter? Women's jeans that are worn on the hips and visually shorten the legs meet this wish.
Our tip: Make sure that the trousers are either floor-length or extra short (cropped). In our online shop you will find women's trousers in lengths 34 - 40 for women from 1.75 m and taller. No matter which model you are looking for - our trousers are not only optimally designed for long legs, but also make your personality shine.
Styling tip 2: Tall collections
The fashion industry has been becoming more diverse for years and is increasingly offering sizes outside the norm. For example, numerous brands have come up with the idea of offering collections for the "Petite" and "Tall" categories. Both the cuts and silhouettes as well as the length of trousers and tops are specially adapted to the body shapes of tall women. It is therefore worth taking a look at the "Tall" lines for tall women with long legs. The tedious search for long trousers and women's jeans is now a thing of the past.
Styling tip 3: Head to the men’s department
The idea of buying men's clothing still seems very unorthodox to many women. However, since it is often difficult for tall women to find well-fitting clothing in the women's department, this step can be worthwhile. The sleeves of tops and jackets from the women's department are often too short or they pinch the shoulders. Especially when it comes to basic items, you should take a look in the men's department or at special unisex lines from time to time. In addition to good basics, you can often find items of clothing that fit different body types, such as T-shirts and hoodies. A good example of a nice item from the men's department: a casual oversized blazer.
Styling tip 4: Maxi skirts
While you're looking for the right outfits, you should never forget that your height is an absolute advantage in terms of fashion. This is best illustrated by the example of maxi skirts, which have been making a fashion comeback in recent years: While small women quickly get lost in floor- or calf-length skirts, this trend is ideal for tall women like you. Many oversized cuts are also ideal for tall women. So celebrate your height with a midi or maxi skirt that perfectly showcases your silhouette.
Styling tip 5: Eye-catching accessories and rounded shoes
Many tall women struggle with choosing the right shoes. Feet can quickly look huge in what is actually a nice pair of shoes. Our tip for anyone who knows this problem: whether it's boots, ballerinas, sneakers or slippers - stay away from pointed shoes and opt for a model with a rounded tip instead. This way, your feet can be tricked into looking a little shorter.
When it comes to accessories, however, tall women can go all out instead of small. While XXL jewelry and noticeably large rings can quickly look like "too much of a good thing" on short women, they really work on tall women. Statement necklaces and large shopper bags also look great on you.
Fashion for tall women - that's what matters
While short women have to limit themselves when it comes to many fashionable items of clothing, you can make fashion dreams come true. Your height shows off both maxi lengths and lush, flowing fabrics perfectly. Tall women also have a free choice when it comes to the shape of their trousers. Because whether it's skinny jeans, boyfriend cut, flared or Marlene trousers - women with long legs can wear anything.
