@Biggie Smalls Height on a woman is variable. There's a continuum from the long torso- short legs combo to the long legs- short torso variety. I fall into the latter. Ie, they tell women my height to avoid tall boots in general bc they supposedly make our legs look stumpy. Not me.
I used to spend a lot of time on 'fashion avenue'. Call backs, interviews, internships,
sample sales. During my travels, i crossed paths with many tall, nordic looking models. They always took a second look, i learned later, bc i was dressed like them (skinnies and knee boots), but way shorter,
to the same effect. A graceful long limbed walk. It's a neat trick, being so short, ngl. I can wear all kinda height inappropriate shyt.
(My body type loses in the thickness contest though, sadly. I would have to gain like 20 lbs to get thick.
