The petite dressing tips I use every day as someone who is 5ft 2… but I also use these many of these with my clients irrespective of stature One to save and share 📌📌📌 🌸 Show off your wrists. Also makes your legs look longer - I’ve done reels on this previously if you don’t believe me! 🌸 If not wearing a full length trousers then show off those ankles. Wrists and ankles are the neatest part of you so it works well to have them on display. 🌸 Footwear - colour match to your trousers/tights/skin to avoid breaking up your silhouette. I also wear a flatform trainer for some extra inches! 🌸 Colour - the goal is not to break up your frame into lots of different blocks rather use colour strategically to lengthen. Wearing head to toe or dressing tonally is ideal for this. Or you can create a column of colour with a different colour jacket/coat 🌸 volume - wearing lots of volume can swamp you if you’re petite so be careful about how and wear you place it. I try to stick to keeping it one area only but do still play around with proportions and experiment to create different looks 🌸 Think vertical - vertical stripes/details/v necklines/buttons/jackets work open etc. as this will lengthen. As ever these are guidelines and the main goal is to wear what you love and makes you feel good. I’ve also re posted on stories a reel I did on petite dressing myths.
