    Major mullet

    Short in the front and long in the back, it’s a totally hot new trend. Play with your hem length—your height lets you pull it off! Go chic and simple in a shirt-style dress or get flirty in a more formal floral print version.

    Floaty florals

    A ruffled hemline adds flirty movement and volume to your straight-up-and-down shape.

    Sweet shift

    Stand tall and proud in a refined shift dress. The straightforward silhouette looks totally fierce with a rockin’ pair of ankle booties.

    Go midi

    Channel 1930’s Coco Chanel with this modest hemline, which hits somewhere between the calves and ankles. This silhouette doesn’t have to be frumpy--add a thin gold belt and cool wedges to give it a dose of edge.

    Mind the maxi

    Maxi dresses lengthen your body to the max! Tall girls look amazing in longer hemlines—you won’t drown in them. If you’re looking for comfort and versatility, opt for a maxi.

    Posh peplum

    Break up a tall frame with a pretty peplum. It highlights your waist and adds sweet volume.
