While your clothes can’t actually make you go from 5’6” to 6’2”, they can definitely make you look slightly taller and leaner than you really are. On the flip side, the wrong clothes will make anyone look shorter and even fatter than they really are.
In this video, I’m going to run through 10 extremely simple tips you can use to make sure your clothes are working for you, and not against you. When you start to combine 2 or 3 or 4 of these tips, you realize that it’s very easy to put together an outfit that makes you look as tall and lean as possible. Even just using one of these tips will help you avoid looking shorter.
I want to remind you that there is NOTHING wrong with being short, and anyone who says there is is obviously very immature and insecure about their own self-worth.
Try to be comfortable in your body. And if you're a younger man, don't worry about your height. Worrying is just a waste of time and energy. So focus instead on what you can control, like how you dress, how you spend your time, and how you treat other people.

Some additional tips: Fix your posture. This should go without saying yet most people have very poor standing and sitting posture. You will literally become taller and look much healthier/attractive. As shorter dudes, practicing proper posture is usually a lot easier for us. Stand/sit up straight, shoulders back, head level and on top of your spine. Do it for the rest of your life. Try shirt stays. They keep your shirt tucked in and flat against your body. Combines extremely well with the next tip. Give braces (suspenders) a go instead of belts with your dress clothes. Brock is absolutely right about the benefits of a higher rise but since we're dudes and have a very low waist to hip ratio, gravity simply doesn't allow us to keep our pants at such a height, even with side-tabs or a belt. Belts also cut you in half horizontally and visually lower your rise since they cover the top of your trousers. Suspenders do the opposite; In fact, they are visually lengthening due to their vertical lines. They keep the top of the pants at the slimmest point of the torso (navel) without cinching them, while making them drape a lot better and reducing pocket flare (especially if you have pleats). The result is a high rise that makes your hips and waist look at slim as possible. Braces are also much more comfortable and have the benefit of keeping your shirt pressed against you, especially at the back, which is slimming. I would recommend button braces on the inner waistband and ideally remove the belt loops. Dress shirts (tall collars) or turtlenecks are great for being drawing the eye up and framing the face. cheers

The last part of the video about being comfortable and confident with your height is so bang on point. I am 33 now, and i have'nt added an inch to 5'5" in the last 20 yrs. For most of my teenage and young life i was concerned about my height. Underconfident as well. But eventually as you grow you start accepting your height and your career achievements and growth as a person become lot more attractive portions of your personality. But one must keep making effort on body and grooming as it makes you feel a lot good about yourself. The self confidence follows. The tips in the video are so good and i will definitely work towards following them. Being lazy is not good. Work towards overall self grooming and everything else follows.

I am 5'7" without shoes and this video was bliss. I started following Brock's idea of fit and dressing style and honestly, it helped me to get good compliments from my colleagues and friends. The best part of that video was related to contrast, as I was unaware of the fact that we should avoid contrast in dressing. Thanks for the point. I am actually looking for you to make a video on colour selection for the dark & dusky skins. It would be really helpful for people from different skin tones to try out different colours apart from the basic colours. Thanks again!

I'm just slightly below 6ft tall too....and notice that I'm generally the tallest guy in the room. Generally. Still want to be a little taller though. It's funny that you can be obviously taller than everyone but not be considered "tall" by many people. Basically if you're 5'9 - 6ft you're often considered average, even if you're above average. Don't get considered "tall" until you hit 6ft 1in +.

It's very difficult to accept being short, if that's the way you feel. Counterintuitively, what works much better is to accept that you'll probably never accept being short. This is much easier and more effective than trying to force yourself to stop being insecure about something, and oddly enough it can actually make you feel more confident and at ease.

I lost a ton of weight last year working from home, and sort of had the ability to "cocoon" in my home and become a different person. Started the process of figuring out fashion at the start start of this year (better late than never) and I have to say these videos helped me a lot since I was finally able to buy nice fitting clothes instead of hiding fat with baggy clothes which was even worse being a short 5' 6" guy, had no fashion sense at all. Rebuilt my entire wardrobe during the past 6 months or so and I just donated a ton of my old stuff away and tried my old clothes again for the last time and I'm so glad I got out of that style. I don't feel like people are laughing at me anymore when they look at me, I feel really confident. Thank you and many of the other male fashion channels

Thank you for the helpful video. These tips work for girls too! It's all about proportions. As a 5ft1 female I find myself looking better in medium height shoes (less than 2.5 inches) than high heels because those they don't make it looks like I'm struggling trying to look taller by standing on the tips of my toes. Medium-rise and high-rise bottoms are a must. Dressing in low contrast and stay away from big, bold patterns. And of course, exercise and eat healthy! Even as a woman it gets better as you age. I dressed like a clown in my 20s, full of insecurities and barely get any attention from guys at all. Now in my 30s I get compliments all the time 😂😂😂

I’m glad menswear style has been slim and tailored these past few years. Can’t go wrong with that silhouette as it’s always flattering for more years to come.

I've been fit and muscularly lean, but 5'4" "on a good day." Now a senior, I barely tick 5'3", and medical issues have loosened my abs and scoliosis shortens my upper torso. For suitcoats, a 34 short is more my size, and generally, any shirt or jacket too long, that hangs down to the crotch, exaggerates shortness. Proportionate clothing avoids the looseness which broadcasts a small person, who is shrinking inside their outfit as we watch! Unfortunately for me a tucked shirt can highlight my torso imbalance, but darker shirts and pants help reduce the Ed Grimley effect of beltline at nipple height. Attitude adjustment is essential, with aging, but holding one's head up, and looking people squarely in the eye can elevate your mood and self-perception. Think positively about every interaction, and focus on the other person, not yourself; project interest in them, what they're saying to you, genuinely, and your self-consciousness will slip away. One doesn't need to dress up, but even your casual appearance creates an impression, regarding a sense of respect for others, and that you care about how you present yourself to them.

I'm a fraction under 6ft and some of my friends who are 5'6" - 5'7" can on occasion look about the same height as myself just by wearing boots with a slight heal and have their hair brushed in a certain way that adds about 4 - 5 inches of height that looks completely convincing.

I'm 5'7" and ~160 lbs. I have this weird problem where small clothing is generally too small but medium is slightly too large most of the time (especially in the arms). I am a tad pudgy in the gut area but I also have genetically thicker thighs, kind of skinny legs and... let's say an _endowed_ behind. Finding clothing that fits exactly right is a huge pain in the ass and I don't yet have the income to populate my wardrobe with custom or bespoke articles. Anyway, great video as usual! These are definitely solid tips.

All good tips and I agree form fitting clothes look better than baggy clothes, but I've a bone to pick. You started the video and ended with the beautiful idea of accepting your body and not try to fit into societal expectations about 'men' and then you go ahead title the video how to look 'taller and slimmer' than you really are and address the video with the tone of looking the way in certain eyes. I would have liked if this video was titled and addressed how to look the best you by wearing the right fit, the fit that shows your form. All the video content stays the same but delivers a different message. I hope you take this as a criticism and not an attack towards you. I am a fan of yours and this does not change anything but this one rubs the wrong way. Being said that, I learned a lot from these tips. Tip 3 is brilliant, not to cut in half with contrasting colors. How come I never thought of that! Tip 5 is very true, wearing mid-rise is my go to for anything. Feel comfortable and now I know it looks good. Tip 6 apart from formal I never tuck in but need to start doing that on casual shirts too. Need to grow up lol. Looks really clean. Going to take most of them all and try to implement them in my life. Thank you.

as they say it's not the size it's what you do with it. i love being shorter. 28x30 & 5'8". i always find my size on sale as all other sizes get picked over. you can shrink down sizes at the tailor, vs having to add, which is more challenging. seating everywhere is easier for mini-mights. i feel there's less inconvenience being shorter. and studies suggest short men live longer as well. glad i'm not average ☺️. all great tips that i always put into use 👍

Would you ever consider expanding to include women? I mean, I know a lot of what you say is based on yourself/modeling the advice, but I would really like to see your perspective for women because I'm petite (5'1") but prefer a more menswear-inspired look. Not like suits all the time but colors and general styles that could be translated. Or even just a video?

The point of fashion is to accentuate the best bits of your figure and hide the worst bits. It's a hell of a lot easier to 'look good' if you eat well, exercise, and generally take care of yourself. Basically, the goal is to look aestheticly pleasing and proportional than just tall.
