The long and short of it

Always wondered how to dress if you’re a little on the short side? Here’s how: avoid tops, jackets and sweaters that go below the hip.
A shorter body frame can look even short with overly long plus size tops, jackets and sweaters. Tops that go below the hip level will start to shorten the look of your legs even more. A top or jacket that stops just at the hip bone will elongate your shorter legs to their longest potential. Sorry ladies, but the long sweaters and jackets really only flatter a taller frame.
