Tall Women’s Clothing Trends for Fall

As a tall woman, I have struggled my whole life with fashion trends. Many of the fads look ridiculous on my tall stature. However, I love to look trendy without looking like I have tried too hard. Here are some of the current fashion trends for fall that I can incorporate to look great with my height.

1. Grey is the new black of the season. Grey pants, grey tall jeans or a grey shirt are the foundation pieces for any tall women’s fall wardrobe.

2. Texture is really hot this season. Get some large handbags and large purses with lots of texture. Some of my favorites are the new quilted handbags in bold colors, animal printed bags and belts and shiny items. Play up your accessories with lots of texture, but remember to keep the patterns big to balance out your tall proportions.

3. There are many women’s tall jeans on the market this fall. Two of the hottest trends are straight leg tall jeans and wide leg tall jeans. They look hot on just about any figure- whether you are tall and thin or a little on the heavy side. If you get these jeans in gray, you will be a “Tall Fashionista”.

4. Bold graphic prints are still in style for fall, which is great news for tall women. Graphic prints can be found everywhere and most of them are in large patterns. Large patterns are key, as they look great on tall women. Small patterns will make you look out of balance, so avoid them.

This fall, tall women have lots of great tall clothing options that will work great with our tall statures.

Accessories that Look Terrific on Tall Women

There is nothing more beautiful than a tall woman who knows how to dress well! However, there is not much tall style advice available for tall women. The best tip I can give you is to keep everything in proportion to your tall size. Since you are larger than most of the population, you accessories should be larger too. Here are a few great tips on what accessories look best on tall women.

Tall women look terrific is large hoop earrings, and dangling long earrings. Never wear stud earrings or small hoops as they will look out of proportion with your face and will only make you look larger.

Long necklaces are especially flattering on tall women. You can definitely pull off a chunky bead necklace or a necklace with a funky large pendant. Long layers of pearls wrapped into several strand look stunning on tall women.

As far as bags and wallets go, the bigger the better. Tall women carrying little purses, look terrible! When choosing a bag, remember the 3 B’s – big, bright, or bodacious. You can get away with any style of bag as long as it is long or wide. If you choose a pattern on your bag or purse, make sure the stripes, patterns and dots are very large. Solids are also a great option and bright, big bags are especially great for tall women. A bright, colorful bag is a way to add some interesting variety to your wardrobe.

Wide belts are great accessories for tall women. Don’t even think of wearing narrow belts, as this will make your torso look extra long. A wide belt will hide a lot of trouble areas and give you a great silhouette.

Have fun with accessories. They are a great way to add a pop of color and make an average outfit transform into a stunning tall outfit.
