Even though maxi dresses are harder for me to wear because I’m short, I wear a jacket or make sure it’s not a poofy dress that makes me look petite && pregnant… any other suggestions on how to rock them if you’re not the most statuesque?
Thanks for keeping JMU clued in on 2k8’s hottest trends. I think it is absolutely amazing that everything you’ve shown is under $20. That’s my kind of style!
Have you thought of buying a dress that is traditionally tea length to rock as a full length dress? Or give yourself a little more length in the legs by wearing a long tunic as a tea length dress.
Shorter people have great options when playing with proportions, it’s all about experimentation.
Try on everything (tunics for the tall, long dresses, a mini dress that your tall friend wears) and get an idea of where different cuts are going to hit you as a shorter person, then you will know for future reference when searching for something of the right length for the right occasion.
