I disagree on the drop waist dress as a short torso person, it feels as the waist line drops to our hips and make us look bulky when we have a slim high waist, removing all curves, quite unflattering. a fitted one colour tone dress is best

Dresses are hard to find when you're petite, hourglass-shaped and also have a short torso. There's always too much fabric at the back, I call it the backsack. What works best for dresses are dresses that don't have a natural waistline, and add a waistline myself by adding a thin belt at around navel-height.

Really helpful! I have this body type, and these tips are great. It's challenging with fitted jackets or dresses, because when the waist line of the garment is hitting your high hip instead of your waist, thats almost impossible to alter. For jackets, I just dont button them. But for dresses, i just started sewing again. On most patterns, i am removing up to 4 inches from the neck to waist portion! I guess for models its not so much of a problem because they are so thin. Thanks!

While I agree that cropped jackets with pants is a hard no, I love a cropped jacket with a sheath (skimming, not full on body-con) dress. I am short torso, long leg, plus size, busty, and just under 5’4”. I’m old enough to know what works for me (57), yet still obstinate enough to try new looks which usually don’t work. You are providing a great service - I wish something like this had been available to me 30 years ago as I stumbled through adult fashion. I did rather well in the 80s (college was from 84-87, followed by several jobs in retail), but I struggled during those early motherhood years (1990s onward). Around 2010 I started to get my fashion feet back under me! I hope that your younger audience takes full advantage of the information you share!

do people who have a short torso tend to NOT be able to wear empire waist tops? The gathering that is supposed to go under the bust ends up always hitting the middle of my bust, so I can't wear it. Part of why I watched this was to see if you mention this issue. When it comes to bras, I would always have to make the straps longer.

I have found that actually still showing of the waist still looks best. The trick I have found is to search (endlessly) for a line type clothes that flare at the lowest area possible on the waist and having a mid thick sinching in. Two thick it looks bad, too thin doesn’t emphases the waist

Kimberly Platt, if you are in amazing shape and want to show off that bod that you work so hard for, I say wear any fitness clothes you want. But if you want to stay away from high rise leggings, then you can wear the ones that sit below the navel. They look great also. You can also wear a top amd bottom that are the same color (low contrast) so that you look like one lean column if skin is not showing between pants and bra. If it’s a bra you are wearing instead of a longer tighter top then keep it close to your skin color. If you’re fair, a light pink won’t divide your body. If your darker skin toned, maybe a darker color. And if you are not large busted a shorter torso is not really so obvious anyway. Wear different outfits, take selfies, and then compare them. You’ll know which one looks better.

To me it sounds awesome! Think Cameron Diaz! Just work those long beautiful legs. Keep in mind that most models are lean rectangle shapes.

Thanks again for more of these informative videos. I realize you are probably talking across your camera. The sound of your voice is very harsh and loud with echos. When you talk over a clip your voice sounded much better probably due to you being close to the mic.

Thank you! So, it depends on your goal- do you want your torso/leg look equal, or would you prefer to have legs appear longer? If the latter, then all my styling videos on how to elongate legs should help!

Can I suggest that you use the phrase "Women with 'a' short torso" instead of "women with short torso"? It sounds like a condition without the "a".

Hii I wonder if you could give any advice on styling hi-low tops for short torso and long legs 🥰
@PetiteDressing
@PetiteDressing 3 жыл бұрын
High low tops can work good for your shape! You want the middle to be shorter and two sides to be longer, giving you the "tucking" effect but without shortening your torso!

I’m not petite, I’m 5’10” but I have a short torso and long legs. I’m also a slim hourglass shape and feel most comfortable when my waist is defined. So I love crop tops but high waisted jeans do look odd on me sometimes. What should I do about this? Can I define my waist and equalize my proportions at the same time?
@PetiteDressing
@PetiteDressing 3 жыл бұрын
Hi Sydney- yes, you can go with a top with cinched waist (like a wrap top or peplum top) which is regular length- that way they will not shorten your torso while still highlighting your waist!

Hi Chi amazing styles I like that you show the celebrities again and the way they dress and my favorite is Sarah Jessica Parker I love the way she styles her clothes and I love her styles and that is why I started to like fashion more when she defined the style for us lovely ladies out there and she a amazing fashion icon. Nicole Richie is great when she tucks her top in and shows how the pants look and the pointy toe high heels look elegant. Thank you Chi for a great video as all ways and have a great weekend. Love XO💕
