Dress as per your body type ang give yourself a fabulous look

PETITE OR SHORT BODY

Identifying your shape is half the battle, so if you are less than 5’3” and of a small build, then you definitely fit in the petite category. 

Petite or Short Body:
This means you are short in height and small boned in structure. The average height here is 5’3” so you are short heighted if you are below 5 Feet and 3 Inches.

What To Wear – Wear Vertical Stripes
  The vertical stripes on the top or on the dress add an illusion of vertical height thus giving you a taller look. Also, you should try wearing V-neck as it shows your neck and gives added height.

 You can also try wearing short skirts and this will make your legs look longer, Remember Rani looks taller and better in short skirts?

You can also wear shirt and trousers and try tucking in the shirt.

Wear dresses with heels, but please avoid wearing sky high heels as it will bring attention to your heels and thus to your short frame. You can wear high heel shoes over a trouser but make sure the trouser covers up the shoes. You can also try tying up your hair or adding the height onto the head by using a head band. Draping a well chosen saree can be a savior.

Jumpsuits: 
Don’t dismiss jumpsuits as a trend only for the column shaped girls. Take a cue form Rani Mukherjee whose single coloured jumpsuit along with killer heels makes her seem taller. Emphasize with similar coloured accessories, for example, Rani’s tan belt and shoes.

What To Avoid – Horizontal Stripes:
Large,wide or bright belts. In fact, you should avoid wearing anything in the horizontal look or anything that seems to divide your body into half.
