How to Dress Well for Tall Women Over 40

22 November

Although tall women have lots of flexibility in dressing, they may still find it difficult to balance their silhouette and dress appropriately for their ages. Don't worry, I have already sorted out 5 tips and tricks to show you how to play up your height but still look both well-proportioned and age-appropriate. Here we go!


1. About Dresses 

For those women who are tall and over 40 year old, a loose maxi dress could be a real plus for them, no matter they are lean, curvy or plus size to the party or to the wedding. The trick is to make sure they have the correct length—you are all set when styling with a maxi ends a couple of inches below the ankle.
Another trick for you is pulling focus on your frame and your waist. For the lean women, wear a belt to create an hourglass shape.

Whereas the plus size or curvy women can wear the dress separately. Don't be afraid to decrease a little volume, you'll surprise to get a minimalist look and extra comfort.


2. About Top 

To avoid too much legs and showcase your curve, one of the solutions is opting for the long tunic top and wide-leg pants, which would effectively draw the attention from your legs to your upper body, and shape a specific waistline as well. Or you can also pair with a long flowy top to balance your body proportion and give your look an extra feminine vibe.

3. About Pants/ Jeans/Jumpsuits / Skirt 

A. Pants

It's likely that tall women cannot always find well-fitting clothes in the shops. So if you find your dress is too short, you can wear it over pants. Trust me, you'll get a chic look beyond your expectations.

Plus, the cropped pants, wide-leg pants, or the mid-rise pants will work well for your daily outing. The key is making sure that the inseam is long enough for your legs.

B. Jeans

Skinny jeans are a good staple to trim legs for lean women ( but please make sure you have the knee in the right place), they can also pair with a neatly pressed blazer or a long cardigan to shape a long vertical line. But for the plus size women, the wide leg jeans or flare jeans will work well for them to create a nice proportion.

C. Jumpsuits/ overall

They will be a perfect option to fit your torso. You can experiment with the dark tones that are conservative for your age. Or try the bright tone to get a spirit of the exciting and also good to freshen your look. In case there are too much legs for your torso, try to avoid the high-waisted design and choose the ankle-length or wide leg bib overalls that can flatter you most!

D. Skirt

Except the mini skirts are inappropriate for your age, those knee-lengths or calf lengths are all the rage for the tall women. To make it office-appropriate, go for the pencil skirt with blouse.

Otherwise, if you want to create a laid-back effect, the casual top and an A-line skirt or maxi skirt could be your choice.

4. About Two-Pieces 

You may find that the two piece outfits are one of the best inventions—They help you to save more time in throwing on an outfit and take you to get ready for your new day. For all the tall women, you have all the possibilities in wearing two pieces, such as the skirt sets, women suits, pants sets, etc. All you have to do is choose the flats or sneakers, not heels to avoid being too tall. In addition, the classic patterned styles, like plaids, houndstooth, for example, are definitely suitable for your age. And, the solid color sets are another option for you to look fabulous and create a minimalist vibe as well.

5. About Accessories 

In the aspect of choosing accessories, tall women can go for the larger size bag, chunky jewelry or other accessories with bigger prints that is in scale with their height and draw attention to them.
