How to dress if you have a long body and short legs?

In life, many people hope to have long legs so that they can look good in clothes and have better temperament. However, ideals are rich, but reality is cruel. Not everyone can have a perfect figure. There will always be some defects. For example, people with long stature and short legs are more common in life. So how do such people dress? In fact, don’t be afraid of having a tall body and short legs. As long as you learn how to dress, short legs can be modified by clothes.

A long waist and short legs means that the vertical distance from the top of the head to the waistline is longer than a normal body shape, and the waist position is lower when viewed from a distance. We call this a low-waist body shape, also known as a long-waist body shape. Here are six dressing tips for low-waisted women to help you show off your charming figure.

A long waist and short legs means that the vertical distance from the top of the head to the waistline is longer than a normal body shape, and the waist position is lower when viewed from a distance. We call this a low-waist body shape, also known as a long-waist body shape. Here are six dressing tips for low-waisted women to help you show off your charming figure.

First, it is suitable to wear a dress (mostly a dress or a jumpsuit). People with long waists usually make their legs look short, so they look better in skirts than pants. Skirts look good only when they are long enough to reach the knees and reveal their calves (knee-length skirts). For example: one-step skirt, A-line skirt, half-length skirt. Ankle-length skirts or full-length scalloped skirts or dresses are better.

1. The dress can fully cover the waist, hips and legs, making it look seamless! It is the first choice for low-waist experts.

Choose light fabrics for hot days and thicker fabrics or knitted dresses for fall and winter.

Friends whose legs are not too thick can wear skirts of any length. (The recommended skirt length for thick-legged body types is detailed in the Thick Legs section in Chapter 3.)

2. When wearing tops and bottoms separately, make sure the colors of the tops and bottoms are similar.

3. A half-length coat (the length of the coat is approximately below the hips and above the knees) is also a type of jumpsuit, which can effectively cover up a low-waisted body shape.

4. Jumpsuits are very popular in recent years. They are suitable for people with long waists. The longer the pants are, the better. Jumpsuits are only suitable for thin, tall and low-waisted people. However, they are not suitable for people with long waists and fat bodies no matter how long the jumpsuit is.

Second, wear high-waisted clothes (wear high-waisted clothes that enhance the waistline).

Wearing high-waisted clothing can most effectively and intuitively raise the waistline. It is suitable for people with long waists, whether they have thick or thin waists, or they are fat or thin. The so-called high-waisted clothing refers to the clothing whose waistline is higher than the actual waist of the body, which can easily conceal a low-waisted body shape.

1. High-waisted skirts are very common, with the waistline almost close to the chest, which makes the lower body look noticeably longer and beautifully raises the waistline. This style is not suitable for people with low waist and fat body.

2. High-waisted pants also work well when worn. Note that the pants should be long enough to reach the ankles for a better effect, and the fabric should have drape.

3. This Korean-style long gown is actually an A-shaped garment without a waistline. The horizontal seam under the chest creates an optical illusion of a waistline.

The improvement effect is self-evident. Because the style does not bind the chest, this type of A-line clothing or A-line skirt is also suitable for people with low waist and fat body shapes.

Tips: People with a low-waisted body shape should avoid wearing low-waisted clothing, otherwise their legs will be so short that they can’t be found!
