What to Wear: for a Petite Figure

For the petite ladies who want to look taller, try slim silhouettes and vertical shapes and colors. Slim silhouettes are your friend and high-waisted pants will make your legs look longer. Naturally, high heels will help, but avoid anything with an ankle strap, which will cut the visual line of your legs and make them look shorter (unless they're a color that's close to your skin tone, in which case, go for it!) And find a good tailor to shorten pants, skirts and sleeves - it'll be worth it!
