People's bones have been shaped in adulthood, and it is basically impossible to rely on other methods for secondary development. But through some correct and simple dressing combinations, you can still achieve visual "growth". Besides, it's not difficult to learn how to wear it. You just need to follow some rules of thumb when buying clothes.
For example, ryan seacrest in the above picture is only 1.73m in height, which is really short in the western world. But from the photos in the picture, it is difficult for us to see any shortcomings in his height, which has a lot to do with his choice of correct clothes.
Let me cut to the chase and share 10 ways to make you look taller.
This is actually easy to understand, but it is easy to be ignored. Because the generous design has been popular in the past two years, but for men with unsatisfactory height, it is suggested to give up this fashion decisively and not catch up with it. Good clothes with personal style should not be influenced by fashion. Knowing how to choose and what you need is king.
Clothes should always fit, especially suits, especially close-fitting ones. Of course, it doesn't matter (it will be very rustic), but it must not be too loose, as long as it can be basically opened.
Most of us have seen photos like this before. There is no doubt that loose clothes will stretch the outline horizontally, making people look wider rather than taller. It is shocking that when short men give up loose clothes and put on streamlined clothes, everything will change.
Glasses, pins, ties, pocket towels
The purpose of this method is to attract the attention of others to your upper body, thus creating an illusion of being taller. Accessories are interesting, including hats, glasses, lapel pins, tie clips and pocket square towels. However, a large number of accessories will produce an odd appearance. So about three classic accessories should be enough, and more is really more.
socks
In addition, the way you wear socks can also lengthen your height. Remember to make sure that socks are the same color as pants or as close as possible.
But you also need to be careful when wearing socks, because it will produce color blocks to divide your appearance. So, please stay away from patterns or bright colors. It's very popular, but it's not for you.
Hat and scarf
These two accessories are an excellent choice to add color and attract attention. As a short person, hats and scarves can be said to be the best way to add some vitality in autumn and winter months, and also a good way to attract people's attention.
A hat can also add a few centimeters to your head. There are dozens of styles, colors and patterns to choose from, which can become the focus of clothing and achieve increased effects.
leather belt
A belt can keep you slim. They'd better not exceed 3.8cm in width, and don't make too much contrast with your clothes.
Of course, the first choice is not to bring it. The belt divides you in two, which can shorten your waistline. A thin belt or no belt will make you look tall. In addition, suspenders are another option to increase the vertical visual effect. They are very elegant. Of course, they will also look a little old-fashioned and retro, so it depends on your age and actual needs.
Vests or vests create a very busy middle part of the body, thus distracting attention from the overall vertical line, thus producing a shortened visual effect.
Long hair (except the top of the head), especially the long hair that covers the neck and extends beyond the shoulders, although it looks artistic, is not high enough. Please give up this personalized hairstyle decisively, it will make you look shorter.
As a short gentleman, a good proportion should always be an important goal.
A shorter suit.
Please note that the shoulder width of short men's suits must not cross the shoulders and arms, and the length can be shortened appropriately compared with the traditional length, so that more legs are exposed, giving people a sense of height.
Narrow lapel
Narrow lapels can prevent shoulders from widening. Broad shoulders do not help to show height. Similarly, replacing lapels with flat lapels can make the chest and shoulders look thin and long.
The sleeves are narrow in width.
Thinner sleeves increase the length of arms and make them slim. The slimmer the arm, the slimmer the body will be.
A higher button
The position of the waist buckle is very important, because it will attract eyes to look up along the body. As shown in the above picture, choosing a suit with high waist buttons can attract your eyes to the top of your body and lengthen the proportion of your legs.
Number of buttons
A suit with two buttons is more suitable for short men than a suit with three buttons or four buttons.
Suit pockets should be put together. When they are opened, they make the suitcase look wide and open.
In fact, these principles also apply to other coats.
As I said before, shorter coats will show more legs, and shorter pants will show more shoes. Both will produce continuous body lines and show more body ... which in turn will make you look taller.
Reject low-waisted pants and choose medium-waisted or high-waisted pants.
There is a simple reason. Pants with middle waist or high waist will lengthen the leg lines, which will make you taller. And low-rise pants must not be touched. Besides, low-rise pants are not popular now, so don't try them even if they are. It will split your body in two, split your body in two, and naturally shorten your legs.
Pant length
Pants must not be too long. Folding trousers on the vamp can shorten the legs. In addition, when there is a pile of unnecessary cloth hanging between your legs, it looks sloppy.
The best length of trousers is that the trouser legs just touch the shoes, and the trousers should have almost no sense of fold and pile.
In short, when the ankle is full of fabric, the legs will look strong and short. Other common styles (such as hemming and flanging) also shorten the leg lines.
Simplification is the ideal effect. Onlookers should keep their eyes flowing up and down. To do this, you must observe the following guidelines:
–Adhere to low contrast color matching.
–Avoid objects that split the torso in two.
–Manage accessories and patterns (no big bright belt, away from horizontal patterns)
There are two ways to use color.
# 1 Keeping the same color system can simplify the appearance and provide extension effect.
# 2 Keep it light or dark, the colors can be different, but please make sure that the coat has a contrasting color to ensure that it will attract people's attention when viewed.
Shoes color
Short shoes are very important because they can stretch. This can be achieved when the contrast between shoes and trousers is not too strong. Low contrast will visually stretch long legs.
When wearing black jeans, try to avoid wearing white sneakers. Can be replaced with black or charcoal gray sneakers (if the color is the same, it is an excellent choice).
In hot and hot months, there is a technology that can make your legs longer when you wear shorts. That is, wearing shoes as close to your skin color as possible will lengthen your legs. For example, brown, beige and brown shorts should be above the knee, which will show more legs. Create a continuous color line to make your legs look longer.
Shoes style
The ultimate purpose of shoes is to pay attention to the shape and outline of shoes. Remember, the goal is to stretch long legs. Therefore, you should:
Wearing pointed shoes, shoes with round heads or square heads can shorten the feet. Pointing will visually lengthen the foot.
Shoes are kept below the ankle, which is suitable for wearing shorts. Low-heeled shoes show more ankles, while high-heeled shoes or boots will shorten the feet.
Although the calf-length coat is warm and looks chic, it only belongs to people like Xu Wenqiang. In life, small people will only be swallowed up by coats and look shorter.
The ideal length is the coat hanging down to the middle of the thigh, which helps to lengthen the trunk and increase the height.
I suggest that you try to choose neutral colors when choosing this kind of coat to achieve a versatile effect. Another key point is to ensure that it does not form a strong contrast with other parts of the clothing.
If you can find herringbone patterns or vertical lines in the fabric, it is also a plus item, because it has a subtle vertical effect and can subconsciously increase the length.
Visually increasing the length requires some skill and creativity.
vertical line
This is the most obvious mode that is very effective for short people. It really helps to lengthen the figure and increase the visual length of the appearance.
Heightening insole
This is the most direct method, but comfort is very important because it is worn all day. Try to buy products with better quality and more suitable for your feet.
In addition, the thickness of the insole should not be too much. First, uncomfortable. Second, it is easy to show flaws, but it is self-defeating.
Stratification is a skill that short people must master. In order to achieve slimming effect and make it longer, you should adjust the color inward.
When wearing a dark coat on a light-colored shirt, the light-colored part will form a more obvious vertical line. This will help to stretch your upper body visually.
For example, the vest and tie on the light-colored shirt in the picture above did not destroy the narrow light-colored vertical color block at all, but also added richness to the V-shaped area, which successfully attracted others' attention and got twice the result with half the effort.
In short, what you want to achieve is creating a vertical line. Remember, vertical mode is a good way to lengthen your body. It also provides a good texture and can distract the eyes.
