So what’s hot right now in the tall clothing department? Is there such a thing as being able to wear fashionable clothing when you are tall? I used to think that trendy tall clothing was impossible to find.
Over the last few years, many retailers are adding longer-length items, but good luck finding them in their normal stores in the mall! Most of the tall sizes are found only through catalogs or online. Here are a few great tall clothing solutions:
1. Layering- use a longer length t-shirt or camisole to wear under any shirt. There are many fashionable companies that supply these now.
2. Specialty tall clothing stores will be your best option- as they make clothing specifically to fit your body type, such as special tall plus size clothing, which is a really hard size to find.
3. Custom made clothing is another great option. That way you can get tall clothing made to your exact measurements for your tall stature. You may think that tall custom-made clothing is expensive, but surprisingly, it is quite an affordable option. Custom clothing is available for tall swimsuits, tall jeans, tall chinos, custom made shirts and blouses, and larger size hats.
4. Tunics are really hot this year, which is great news for the tall sized lady. Some tunics are just long enough to make it look like a normal sized shirt on us. Others are quite long. Tunics are available in all kinds of fabric choices from basic t-shirts to designer evening blouses.
5. A great tall style trend right now is to add something shiny to your outfit. A great wide silver belt or a pair of gold shoes is a great way to dress up an average outfit. Big metal hoops look great on taller statures.
When it comes to shopping, tall women may have to search a little longer than most. The good news is, that tall clothing finally exists and the choices are growing more every season.
