Body Shapes, Slender

If you have the slender body type, you are probably the envy of your friends, while you envy them their boobs and bottoms—anything that would hold up your pants and fill in your tops.

If you are tall, you find it difficult to get the length you need. In petite sizes, you often feel like you look pre-pubescent.

Your upper and lower body are balanced. You are trying to create a subtly curvy look (you are NOT a child!), while highlighting your gorgeous limbs.

You look excellent in body-concious clothing, cut to give the illusion of an hourglass silhouette.

Higher necklines and longer skirts are ideal for you. Show off your slender legs in slim cut pants, or pretty much any style except exaggerated bell bottoms. Since you don’t have much to balance the curve of the pant hem, bell bottoms will drag the eye down, making your balanced figure look unbalanced.

Make sure all of your garments are long enough. Tailored tops should reach at least your high hip area. Pants should not show your ankles unless they are obviously capri-style. Highwaters are not a good look for you.
