I'm a short teen and the other day to school I wore a tweed sportsjacket with an olive green trousers, striped pink/white shirt, patterned red silk tie and a navy blue v-neck. Although the combination may not be the best (my wardrobe is small) I got lots of compliments that day! Dressing smart and clean gives me confidence and it is a shame that it is a dying thing.

I was 5' 7"; thanks to increasing age and a back injury, I've shrunk to 5' 6", which I take to be fairly short. So I wear high waisted trousers and braces;. and peaked lapels. the high waisted trousers help, because they ease pressure on my arthritic hips. Boots tend to increase my height though I do also wear bow ties now and then. And i wear striped shirts. But - I don't really mind being short - . I AM short - so don't go out of my way to conceal the fact. there are worse things than being short.....
@Methodsaimon2 жыл бұрын
Exactly and i never see short being a downside its just your build its also understandable to wanna appear a bit taller i feel things like high waisted trousers and tucking your shirt in are basic things that will help other than that i wouldnt recommended about every detail that would just look like ur not satisfied or even insecure about your self!

What's the reason for lighter outer and darker inner being bad for short guys?
@gentlemansgazette5 жыл бұрын
Lighter colors reflect light, and darker colors absorb it. Given that reflected light coming into our eyes is how we see things, lighter surfaces therefore look larger to us (as a type of optical illusion). This is why rooms with dark walls seem smaller and cozier, and those with light walls seem more open and spacious. As such, framing light colors within dark ones on your body will mean that your overall silhouette is slimmer, while your best features are accented. Thanks for your question! - Preston
