How to Look Taller

Instructions

Step1

Select a monochromatic palette when choosing clothes. One color family from head to toe tricks the eye and brain into thinking "long and lean."

Step 2

Select pieces that won't break up your body into blocks. Women, choose a long lean dress, or no-waist pants and skirts; men, opt for thin belts the same color as your trousers.

Step3

Go for well-tailored looks, princess seams and darts. A looser fit can often look wider.
Bevorzugen Sie gut geschnittene Kleidungen. Etwas nachlässig genähnte Kleidungsstücke sorgen für ein etwas üppiges Erscheinungsbild.

Step4

Pick vertical detailing: thin stripes, visible seams, interesting buttons and contrasting ties.

Step5

Wear heels. The new square heels and stacked slides are more comfortable than stilettos ever were, so take advantage.

Step6

Great posture is an easy way to add height, or the appearance of it.

Step7

Lose weight if you're heavy. Slim will always look longer.
