01/1110 fashion hacks to look taller
While we're all for embracing your body—no matter how you look—it doesn’t hurt to dress in a way that accentuates one’s frame. Injecting the illusion of a taller and leaner frame to one’s wardrobe always enhances one’s appearance. Check out these 10 fashion hacks that would instantly make you look few inches taller.
02/11Vertical Stripes
Go for vertical stripes. The long lines not only create an illusion and lengthen your frame, but these stripes also make you appear leaner. Avoid horizontal stripes as these add width to your frame and make you look shorter.
03/11Paneled dresses
Paneled dresses are a great hack. They cut the sides of the body and make the frame appear leaner and taller. They elongate the torso and contour the body in a way that it looks curvier.
04/11Monochrome outfits
Wear the same coloured top and bottom to create the illusion of length. When the same colour flows from top to bottom it again creates the illusion of length as there’s no break in between. It makes the person look taller to the eye.
05/11Turtle necked outfits
Turtle necked outfits are a great hack as they instantly add height to the frame and are trendy as well. They create the illusion of a taller torso and a fuller bust.
06/11High-waist bottoms
Wear high waist bottoms as they add length to your legs. The longer the legs appear, the taller the person looks. One can also opt for these if they have a long torso and want to add length to the legs to get the body proportion right. If the bottoms can cover your feet completely, then the illusion has been created at its best.
07/11Choose your shoes wisely
Shoes make a lot of difference to the overall appearance of a person. The right shoes always do the trick. While wearing a short outfit, use nude coloured shoes or heels, as they do not cut the length of the legs and make them look elongated. Pointed shoes are yet another brilliant choice to add length to the frame as they too elongate the legs.
08/11Ditch the oversized bag
Yea, it is pretty cool to sport a huge bag and stuff in all your stuff. But what people don’t realize is that it adds width to one’s frame. It also makes the body look smaller next to the huge bag. All this just makes one look tinier. Instead, go for a trendy small bag as it not only looks fashionable but makes one look taller by the frame.
09/11Ditch those baggy outfits
Baggy outfits look cool but they add a lot of width to the frame. Instead, go for body-hugging outfits as the leaner you appear, the taller you look.
10/11Draw attention upwards with V-necks or draping accessories
Wearing V-necked outfits or accessories like scarves, or necklaces that drape around the neck, draw the attention upwards. They also make one’s torso look leaner, and thus lengthen one’s frame.
