I am 150 too but I have a problem! I have wide hips flat curves and very short torso so it makes my middle section looks so weird and it's hard to find something that flatters my body frame and shape! My mid section looks like a big square and my legs are so skinny my shoulders are small too! It's the weirdest shape I've ever seen! Thanks genetics ugh!! I wonder if there is anyone else with such a problem?? It makes me feel so insecure! If only my butt was perky I was gonna look okay but it's wide and flat looks gross lol
@@ForeverIloveyou2013 We are our own worst critics when it comes to our bodies. Perhaps you could ask someone whose style sense you trust to tell you what your best features are and how you could accentuate them. You don't like your lower half but your upper body might be your best part. Nobody has NOTHING to work with. Being petite just means having to dress very deliberately every day to get our proportions right. Use suitable makeup, delicate jewellery and dainty accessories to complete your look. Do your hair every day to complement your outfit. I'm 4'11" and this is the strategy I use. I hope this helps.
@@ForeverIloveyou2013 I bet you are a pretty girl that looks better than you think. But I would not draw attention to my waist. No belts Do empire waistlines, as she stated. Wear skinny jeans with bigger tops. You might also try boot heel jeans since they balance out the hip area. You are just going to have to try on a lot of outfits to see what looks good on you and stick to the style that suits your body.
I like the fact that you're not making a huge deal of yourself like so many other youtubers do. You stick to the topic and present it in a professional and interesting way! I like your accent too, it brings nice variation to the very American youtube, but still your English is super good. It would be nice to hear more about you though, which is why I'm so glad to hear you're giving us a "room tour". I really enjoy your videos and you seem like such a pleasant person, keep the good work up!
maija you are so on point with your comment! I live in North America but my heritage is mixed and European. I do speak more than one language and yes in Canada you can get Google in French etc. which is great, however. The internet is totally dominated by anglophone, especially North American anglophone culture. We are all guilty of this unconsciously; it is normal for us for people from Estonia e.g. to speak and post in English but how many of us make the effort to learn their language. In every language there is a whole new world to explore. That's why I like Justine Leconte's videos so very much; she brings that international presence into the internet forum which I think is sorely needed. She is also very positive with not a drop of excessive self-regard; a generous person enthusiastically sharing her expertise, convictions and ideas. Absolutely a breath of fresh air: I know I am echoing your post, but you said it really well. Tx!!!!
You kidding me? She speaks impeccable and very proper English and she is very articualate as well. In fact, she speaks so much better than huge numbers of American TH-camrs out there.
Thank you so much. This was most helpful. I hear your beautiful voice in my head every time I get dressed. I'm 70 and try to dress fashionably but would love to see a video dressing older women. Aka 70 plus but with a 50yr old attitude toward life.
Yes indeed, 70 is the new middle age, look at people like Helen Mirren, Joanna Lumley and the (like us) petite Lulu. Thank you Justine but yes older ladies need your help and particularly petite ones. Thank you for all your help I really get something out of these videos.
Oh yes! We over 60 ....with a young attitude....would love your expertise and tips on style Justine. You might have addressed this already but I was unable to locate a video specifically for the “older” woman~. I would say that there are quite a few of us that love your videos and are dying to hear what you would recommend for us! Thanks
Thanks for the tips ^^ I'm 157cm. I've been living in Asia and the clothes fit me perfectly. Not looking forward to moving back to my home country and going back to way too long sleeves :/
see, that's what I meant with "it depends on the average in each country". Usually the country where a brand is from determines the type of fit and size it will use...
Exactly ^^ it's very interesting. Thanks for your videos. I've only recently found your channel and I'm finding it very interesting. Looking forward to the next one.
I'm 157 too, and since I don't wear long sleeves at all, my biggest problem is pants legs! I always, always have to fold them up at least ten cm, sometimes more.
thats interesting cause I'm the opposite cause I'm asian and I was normal sized in my country, but i came to the US and I'm so small.. but thankfully a lot of online stores have petite options here
I'm lucky, I'm 159cm but my legs are the same length as an average Caucasian person, I think my legs were a 80cm inseam. But my torso is so short i can get my ribs stuck under my hip bone if I twist wrong..
Thank you for this. I'm 5' tall and finding flattering clothes can be a real struggle. My mother always told me to match my hose and shoes to the colour of my hemline in order to give the illusion of height. She was always well-dressed and instinctively knew what worked for her. She also taught me how to shorten my trousers and skirts.
Oh, you are so lucky you had some guidance. I'm a petite rectangle who often has to hem my own office clothing and getting the cuffs of suit pants to look right is just the bane of my existence. Wish she had included some advice on suit jackets too! It's hard to find ones that looks professional and vaguely flattering; the problem I'm having this weekend.
I have started to watch your videos recently, and I have fallen in love. Your personality and the way you explain the topics are excellent. Great work Justine!
RealLina M the same opinion here. She is awesome, very feminine, delicate, sense of humor, smart, love her style.... I’ve done a very nice discovery, I’m very happy with that 😃👌
I have been dressing my five foot two body all wrong, lol. Anyway, I was watching this video at the laundromat and another woman said, "Is that the French woman?" You are famous!!!! Love from Texas, USA. All young women need to watch you. You are a great role model.
I had no idea this was my issue. I always thought something was off about my waist, and that's why I looked better with a higher or lower waistline. I've always gravitated towards short jackets and tuck, or partially tuck my tops to elongate my legs for years. Very helpful Thanks for this!
I am petite with a hourglass shape, and my go to look is A-line dresses, and a pair of black flat ankle boots. When I wear jeans I wear a high wasted pair, with a monochromatic top and usually a big statement necklace, usually below the bust.
I'm petite and I'm amazed on how I've never seen videos on how to style and I'm glad I'm doing it right because most of what you talked about I apply it when I dress. Very clear and researched as always, I love you Justine!
Tone is your attitude toward your audience and you make it clear that you value all women. You wish for us the delight you take, the pleasure you take in being a women and enjoying all that life has to offer. You call us out from any discouragement or narrowness to experience all the pleasures of life and to respect our persons and bodies, even if our (American in my case) culture devalues us. Brava!
Thank you! I'm going to write down these main points so I can keep them in mind while clothes shopping. I noticed while watching that some of my favorite pieces which I feel comfortable and confident in are garments that follow these style tips. It makes perfect sense for my body type! I appreciate how your videos are always logical and easy to follow.
Congratulations on reaching this mile stone!!!!!! Also thank you from the bottom of my heart for the petite dressing tips. All the females in my family are petite.
Thank you so much for this video, Justine! I'm 159cm with an inverted triangle body type. I also have a longer torso with short legs, so I usually prefer to shift my waistline higher rather than lower. Most of things you advise for petite and inverted triangle body types are tricks I had to learn the hard way over the years, through trial and error, but it's very affirming and informative to hear you explain the reasons behind them. The only advice I can't follow is high heels, because my mom had to have bunion surgery and I'm trying to avoid the same fate, and small bags, I'd go crazy trying to get through my day with only what I can carry in a small bag. Congratulations on reaching 100,000 subscribers. I'm looking forward to seeing the video tour of your studio.
Thank you so much for thinking of us petite ladies. The struggle is real. Your concise presentation explains perfectly what we should be aiming for. Thank you. I look forward to your videos every week.
i started watching this video thinking i wasn't going to change anything i wear because i like my style, but then i discovered that most of the items in here ARE what i usually like to wear. apparently i've got a great sense of style :)
also in the netherlands, petite is anything under 1.68 m. i think you're right when you say it depends on the country. 168 cm may seem tall, but your perspective is different when everybody around you is like 180 cm.
Discovered almost the same thing - only thing I disagree with (slightly) is skirt lengths: mid-calf to ankle also work reasonably well for me, as long as it is below the knee "enough" I find that it doesn't make me that much shorter than I am (152 cm).
Same. I am 150m cm and my staple is a bardot top and high waist pleat or non pleat chiffon skirt that goes to my mid calf. I have that outfit in so many colour variations now because it suits me so well despite my tiny height.
Thanks so much! 💙 Video was very helpful 😊 My height is 161cm. I feel like sometimes the fashion industry is forgetting us, like all the trousers are so long and I have to buy sweatpants in kids section to get right lenght 😀 Congrats to reaching 100 k followers! ☺️
bloodcoarn Thanks for the advice :) I agree, but stores which sell garments in petite, normal and extra long lenghts are usually more expensive 🙁 but if you are looking for nice fitted key piece to your wardrobe its fine. I am happy that we own a sewing machine to alter our clothes. That might be a solution too ☺️
I am a petite woman in my 50's. I also have a large bust size (DD), so finding clothes in the petite section is usually impossible. (I guess petite woman are supposed to have a small bustline?) My secret to dressing well is knowing how to tailor clothes from the regular women's department. Many times it means I will shorten the sleeves (especially in short sleeve items) and hem the length. Also, I look for pieces that are on sale (clearance) that need more tailoring than I can do. That way the money I spend at the tailor's still makes the item affordable! Thank you Justine for your focus on us short girls!!
Justine you are amazing ! Very informative and accurate. Same colour outfit for tops and bottoms really works for me.Choosing the right length for skirts is so important, thank you for the advice! Tres bien 👌 🦋😍🦋
Thank you for a complete and clear explanation of how to style a petite woman. I'm 5'1", 98 lbs., 47 yo with a very straight figure. This is super helpful. I've also learned from your videos that I have an oval face (I always thought I had a heart-shaped face, but no.) I love your videos, Justine. You are polished, intelligent, and eloquent.
A petite lady at 68 yrs. here thanking you for this video.. it's hard enough being on the older side of life, and to try to find something to wear is just as hard.lol.
Watching this video earlier would have saved me so much money I spent on clothes I will never wear after buying them. Because they make me look even more petite than I am. So thanks, this helped a lot.
Love the way you have created this , so calm and pleasant with the right amount of visuals and information. Im a petite myself from India which is why I ended up watching your video.
Dear Justine, thank you very much for this! I’m a Southeast Asian (Indonesian), and I’m petite even for my country’s standard. Usually fashion advice for petite women would recommend mid-thigh dresses/skirts and high heels, and nothing else. But the thing is, I wear modest clothing. For skirts/dresses, it usually means below knee or all the way down to the ankle. Your video helped expand my horizon and affirm that petite =/= immodest clothing. Thank you!
Thank you for this video at 5' 4" I'm on the edge of petite so many of these suggestions will work for me. Congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers! Could do a video with suggestions for us plus size women that are also vertically challenged?
I really liked this video! I'm a petite girl so this video was very informative and inspiring to me. I subscribed to your channel maybe three weeks ago when I accidentally found your head shapes video, and I thought everything you said was very informative and the content was such good quality - straight to the point and very professional. You also inspired me to clean up my closet and to pass forward the clothes I didn't use, and by talking about the Fashion revolution week you raised my awareness about the fashion issues. Now I'm a lot more educated, thanks to you! I always look forward to new videos every Wednesday and Sunday. Keep up the good work, your content is very pleasing and your personality is wonderful! I hope you have a wonderful spring and coming summer!
5' tall and very very pear shaped - as I hit late twenties I went from very small everywhere with an hourglass figure to a very much larger hip with the same everything else. It feels hard, when the body changes and especially when it's hard to find good fits, but I am so encouraged by your videos. Helpful and informative and you make me feel like I'm not abnormal. thanks and keep making videos!
dang gurl, you're always answering the questions I have at the back of my mind. Love your videos. Keep it up! You totally deserve the now 200 over thousand subscribers
I just leaned that I’m a small or petite person by looking for formal gowns for a trip I was taking. Now I’m trying to make what I have look good when it comes to old stuff I have. Your video is helping me find what to keep and what to give way.
Thank you for your brilliant videos. I live in Australia and I'm 66 years old and still love dressing well. I have gained a lot of confidence and knowledge from your videos. Thank you xx
Finally I found a tutorial for a short bodytype who isn't fat! I have hourglass also. I have no idea how to dress so I just went for what I felt comfortable in. Seems like I already do dress the best way for my body, that's a relief. Maybe tops I never use V-shaped so I will try more of that and showing neck down to the crutch. Thanks girl!
Oh Justine, I met you for the first time ever today. What a lovely lady you are!! You inspire confidence without lecturing. Thank you so much. Wish I had seen you before picking a knee length dress with belt with big fern pattern which I loved, and I don't like high heels... for my daughters graduation last year. I will know better for her next one in 3 year's time...
Can I just say, I totally get why some girls who are petite would want to look taller or bigger :) But for me personally, I love being small! It's such a personality quirk. Same goes for whatever size and shape you are. But it is fun sometimes to put on some killer heels and go up a foot haha
Justine, you have clearly one of the best TH-cam channels. Your videos are a pleasure to watch and learn from - congratulations on your well deserved success!
Please make a video on how to turn a morning outfit or work clothes to evening or fancy dinner outing.. for women on the go. Say you are working and suddenly you got invited and you don't have time to go home or change. How can I transform what I am already wearing.. even if I had to do light shopping just an hour before my evening appointment or date.
Nehad Salman Maybe you can find a corner at your workplace where you can store an "emergency outfit" or at least some shoes? Otherwise...get a big handbag and carry a pair of heels, maybe a fancy belt and some jewellery with you...also, practice creating easy yet elegant updoes with your hair (lots of tutorials on that) and find a lipstick you are comfortable wearing...putting your hair up and wearing lipstick can already dramatically change your look. Also...men are easily intimidated/taken aback by women who are too dressed up or wear too much make-up. Going all out, especially on a first date can even be counterproductive. So don't stress yourself too much about what you're wearing. Use that hour to take a walk or have a snack somewhere so you're relaxed and refreshed for your date. Much more important than colour coordinating your shoes and handbag.
I find a long, light weight scarf (my current favourite has paillettes), earrings and extra shoes helpful in that situation. If the evening outing is more casual, add a leather jacket to the above. Scarf goes around the neck w the jacket, or around the shoulders for a dressier night out. A pouchette inside your workbag can carry all but the shoes, and becomes your evening bag, once emptied. I agree about red lipstick!
So happy to have found your channel. Now I feel I can't buy another item until I've watched all your videos! Also sharing them!! These information are "must know" for everyone. Yet I've learnt none of this after years of reading fashion magazines!
Thank you, Justine, for this video! :) I'm 156 cm tall and my husband is 198. I've found that I was subconsciously following some of your suggestions but now I know everything! ;)
That was fantastic. Thank you so much. Could you do one on leg shape? For instance, I have short, thick legs, so I never really feel comfortable in short skirts or slim pants. What would work best?
Thank you so much Justine! I'm 5'3" and medium build. I learned some new things from this video that are very helpful! I appreciate the visuals you did.
Hi Justine, I'm so happy for this video. I'm petite (1.53 and 46 kg) and I have never heard such a bright explanation of what a petite person is, and exactly as you said, the lengths, the sleeves everything is a problem, and the offer of petite sizes are very limited, thats why I have a very good taylor. Curiously I tent to do what you said, but by trial and error I guess, now I know why, it would be very easy now choose and buy better. So helpful! Congratulations!!!! You've been doing an excellent job and you are so nice, and this is just the beginning! Thumbs up always👍🏼💛
You're so knowledgeable Justine, I love your advice and the way you present it! You're firm in your opinions but you're not judgmental and you give people options, it's so refreshing and honest. 💕💕💕
I agree with many sentiments here...you are so lovely, kind, thoughtful. I’ve been bingeing on your videos to catch up. I’ve learned from you, but you also support many of my evolving style and life choices. Mercí! (From this petite one.)
congrats on subbies. enjoy and always learn something new. I am 5'3" too funny never considered myself petite. Long legs, but so petite pants have never worked. But I am realizing that in a blazer or coat a petite small is best. Not an option in high end brands so tailoring is always a must for classic, quality pieces. thanks again.
Lisa C I am five ft four and never can wear petite clothing. I also have long legs and a shorter torso. I still find helpful hints from this video though like a monochromatic look and lengths for dresses and such.
Men's petite in the US starts at 5'8.5 (174cm) as most the regular sized clothes are based off 5'10 (178cm). Maybe Peter Manning NYC would be a good brand worth researching as it's a petite men's specialty brand.
I am new to your channel and I really enjoy it. You are very knowledgable and have a special skill in transmitting the information in a very simple way. Plus your personality is sooo nice!!
Jane Hancock ...I was wondering the same and then thought why can’t we wear the same styles she is showing? I’m 65 and 5’5” but heck...her styles are great.
Petite, pear shaped & a slight bit plus sized here. These videos have helped with extra tips & have affirmed that I am doing things right most of the time. Bell bottomed or boot cut jeans are my go to which has been very difficult to find when shopping with the dang skinny jeans trend.
I always love your videos and this one especially as I am petite etc. Petite women aren't celebrated enough as "petite". Many of the most celebrated actresses were short and had wildly different styles: Elizabeth Taylor Vivien Leigh Natalie Portman Scarlett Johanssen Joan Crawford Salma Hayek Natalie Wood Audrey Tautou Bette Davis Sarah Jessica Parker Thandie Newton Bo Derek Rooney/Kate Mara Winona Ryder Helena Bonham Carter Vanessa Paradis Isla Fisher Mae West/Veronica Lake/Jean Harlow Mila Kunis Reese Witherspoon Lucy Lui Zoe Kravitz/Lisa Bonet/Jade Pinkett Emilia Clarke Drew Barrymore Carrie Fisher Gillian Anderson Janelle Monae Christina Ricci
And thank you soooo much for uploading videos which really help us,women to get in shape with our daily dress codes and all. I love all of your videos, the way you talk,the way you present them😊 It would be nice of you if you can do video on "How to reuse clothes which we haven't used in months/years and how to modify them in to something we can wear" Thank you again! :)
Please help us long legged women too. So tired of pants that are too short (ankle pants are everywhere and are mid calf on me), "high waist" jeans that land well above belly button (taller people often have longer legs, but not longer torsos). We don't want to look like a giraffe. Or Gumby 😑
Susan Holl For a casual look I often combine capri length pants with knee socks for that reason...but it's a different look, of course. Great with boots and sneakers, not so great with ballerinas and pumps and the like, in my opinion. Or just give the middle finger to current fashion and wear slacks or other widelegged trousers. For some reason they're easier to find in an adequate length. And they do look fabulous on us giraffes 😊.
That’s my problem, and I always go for a low-rise on skirts (I almost never wear trousers, but it would apply to those too). Mid-thigh miniskirts are great because they show off your assets (legs) and I tend to wear tops untucked and slightly longer than the waistband of my skirt to lengthen the torso. V-necks and scoop necks elongate the neck and above the bust, so they’re a must for me too. It’s taken me years to realise I can’t stray much beyond this pattern, much as I might like to sometimes. 😔 Oh, and pendant necklaces are great too!
Justine, i have only begun watching your videos and I'm thoroughly enchanted. You are a marvelous raconteur who makes beautiful style accessible to all. Some of your suggestions are common sense, well established fashion rules but presentation is everything in this competitive world and you're definitely a breath of fresh air. Many TH-cam hosts are overly glamorous and trying too hard to look like celebrities. Your personal style is sleek, easy on the eyes and exudes an authenticity that one rarely sees. So many women try too hard to be beautiful. You appear very happy in your skin. 😉 Looking forward to your future videos. (I expect I will be binging on those I have not yet seen.)
justine - i'm 5'1 and have an hourglass body. i never know what bikini shapes would suit me and hence have never bought one. i have double D breasts and that's a problem too, makes in worse in knowing what will look good on me. You have suggestions? any help would be wonderful! :)
Kat Webb, Unfortunately, halters are rarely an option for those with larger busts because it's hard to find a supportive and comfortable bra that will work for halters. Even strapless often requires some compromise, so halters are usually straight out. This is a reason why you rarely see those with larger natural breasts wearing spaghetti-strap tops. You can't hide a bra under it, and braless will typically look frumpy.
I would very much like to see a video done for this sort of body type! Clothing advice for petites and hourglasses tend to conflict seriously, especially if you happen to have more complications on top of that, like being plus-sized or close, like classy or conservative styles, and cannot wear or do not like heels. A more pronounced bustline in particular can be very tricky on a petite lady because shorter frames usually also have narrower shoulders, which can make an already-large bust look ENORMOUS. Justine, I am 5'0" (about 154cm), with differences of about 22cm between bust and underbust, about another 2cm between underbust and waist, and another 22 between waist and hips. At a smaller size my underbust-to-waist difference changes, but the others remain about the same. It's an extremely challenging body type to dress, so please assist!
I subscribed few days ago but it's already clear to me that you deserve every one of your subscriptions! There aren't lot of youtubers creating quality contents like you. Plus you seem to be a truly down-to-earth person! Thanks Justine :)
This was really helpful - I'm not actually that petite, but I have quite short limbs so some of these tips help with that. Also explains why some of my favourite outfits became favourites. Thanks for your videos, I just found your channel recently, and already your videos are must watch when you make a new one. it's really nice to have in depth discussions around fashion on youtube, while still keeping a sense of fun I think!
Im 1.47! So I struggle a lot! Heels are out of the question for me, not only that they are uncomfortable, finding my size is basically impossible.. On another note- I dont want to say that I want to make myself appear taller, I love my size and shape, it makes me unique! But finding clothes for myself, that will fit well- thats a whole other story.. :) I enjoy your videos a lot BTW- you have great energy! :)
KateDubi what size shoes do u wear? .... I'm also 1.47 I alter most my clothes and my shoe size is us4 or eur 34 so I buy them online from Amazon us and ship them internationally heheh the struggle is real and costly
Im the same size as you, but my foot is a bit wide I think, so a lot of shoes are too narrow for me, even if the size is OK.. I dont have a lot of "grown up" shoes..
I'm 1.50 (4.11) and while i'm not interested in looking taller, i definitely don't want to appear shorter either, so, this was really helpful!.
IzzyPh0bic Exactly, same here! We are as we are, but not shorter 😉
IzzyPh0bic meee tooooooo
I am 150 too but I have a problem! I have wide hips flat curves and very short torso so it makes my middle section looks so weird and it's hard to find something that flatters my body frame and shape! My mid section looks like a big square and my legs are so skinny my shoulders are small too! It's the weirdest shape I've ever seen! Thanks genetics ugh!! I wonder if there is anyone else with such a problem?? It makes me feel so insecure! If only my butt was perky I was gonna look okay but it's wide and flat looks gross lol

The high waisted jeans technique really works 😍
So is she saying high wasted w shirt tucked or untucked??
I've been searching for good quality high waist jeans for a very long time. And I still haven't found it ☹
@@tinahuttner7280 Tucked. And untucked shirt would basically ruin the effect of the high waist created by the jeans.
Ohhh they cut me off. They make my waist look really short
Thanks for the tips ^^ I'm 157cm. I've been living in Asia and the clothes fit me perfectly. Not looking forward to moving back to my home country and going back to way too long sleeves :/

I have been dressing my five foot two body all wrong, lol. Anyway, I was watching this video at the laundromat and another woman said, "Is that the French woman?" You are famous!!!! Love from Texas, USA. All young women need to watch you. You are a great role model.
you are so smart, it's a pleasure listen to you :)
valeria licciardello ii
absolutely true! I rarely spend time watching youtube. But her videos are exceptional.
You are beautiful ♡
Thanks for providing lots of pictures and then explaining exactly what they do to create the illusion
I had no idea this was my issue. I always thought something was off about my waist, and that's why I looked better with a higher or lower waistline. I've always gravitated towards short jackets and tuck, or partially tuck my tops to elongate my legs for years. Very helpful Thanks for this!
I am petite with a hourglass shape, and my go to look is A-line dresses, and a pair of black flat ankle boots. When I wear jeans I wear a high wasted pair, with a monochromatic top and usually a big statement necklace, usually below the bust.
I'm petite and I'm amazed on how I've never seen videos on how to style and I'm glad I'm doing it right because most of what you talked about I apply it when I dress. Very clear and researched as always, I love you Justine!
yes I'm 4 foot 7, these tips are great thank you
Your video feels so genuine & well researched ... I'm so happy to discover you...keep doing the good work 😘😘
Tone is your attitude toward your audience and you make it clear that you value all women. You wish for us the delight you take, the pleasure you take in being a women and enjoying all that life has to offer. You call us out from any discouragement or narrowness to experience all the pleasures of life and to respect our persons and bodies, even if our (American in my case) culture devalues us. Brava!
I love this, I'm 5'1 , 107 pounds , with a curvy figure. Shopping for my size is a nightmare !! Thank you.
Thank you! I'm going to write down these main points so I can keep them in mind while clothes shopping. I noticed while watching that some of my favorite pieces which I feel comfortable and confident in are garments that follow these style tips. It makes perfect sense for my body type! I appreciate how your videos are always logical and easy to follow.
Congratulations on reaching this mile stone!!!!!! Also thank you from the bottom of my heart for the petite dressing tips. All the females in my family are petite.
I like watching you because you are so real with hardly any markup on and soft spoken.
Thank you so much for this video, Justine! I'm 159cm with an inverted triangle body type. I also have a longer torso with short legs, so I usually prefer to shift my waistline higher rather than lower. Most of things you advise for petite and inverted triangle body types are tricks I had to learn the hard way over the years, through trial and error, but it's very affirming and informative to hear you explain the reasons behind them. The only advice I can't follow is high heels, because my mom had to have bunion surgery and I'm trying to avoid the same fate, and small bags, I'd go crazy trying to get through my day with only what I can carry in a small bag. Congratulations on reaching 100,000 subscribers. I'm looking forward to seeing the video tour of your studio.
Thank you so much for thinking of us petite ladies. The struggle is real. Your concise presentation explains perfectly what we should be aiming for. Thank you. I look forward to your videos every week.
i started watching this video thinking i wasn't going to change anything i wear because i like my style, but then i discovered that most of the items in here ARE what i usually like to wear. apparently i've got a great sense of style :)
also in the netherlands, petite is anything under 1.68 m. i think you're right when you say it depends on the country. 168 cm may seem tall, but your perspective is different when everybody around you is like 180 cm.
Discovered almost the same thing - only thing I disagree with (slightly) is skirt lengths: mid-calf to ankle also work reasonably well for me, as long as it is below the knee "enough" I find that it doesn't make me that much shorter than I am (152 cm).
Same. I am 150m cm and my staple is a bardot top and high waist pleat or non pleat chiffon skirt that goes to my mid calf. I have that outfit in so many colour variations now because it suits me so well despite my tiny height.
Me too hahaha
Jits Fingers same
You are so easy to listen to, Justine... I sure appreciate you very much!
Thanks so much! 💙 Video was very helpful 😊 My height is 161cm. I feel like sometimes the fashion industry is forgetting us, like all the trousers are so long and I have to buy sweatpants in kids section to get right lenght 😀 Congrats to reaching 100 k followers! ☺️
I feel ur pain and i'm even shorter than you xxxx
Zuzana Mihályiová im 150... It is worse for me with a very narrow frame
I'm 151, and dresses always end up with a drop waist.
bloodcoarn Thanks for the advice :) I agree, but stores which sell garments in petite, normal and extra long lenghts are usually more expensive 🙁 but if you are looking for nice fitted key piece to your wardrobe its fine. I am happy that we own a sewing machine to alter our clothes. That might be a solution too ☺️
It is actually very easy to shorten trousers with sewing machine. So thats what I do :)
This is the most useful video I have ever watch on the subject. I will watch this over and over!
I am a petite woman in my 50's. I also have a large bust size (DD), so finding clothes in the petite section is usually impossible. (I guess petite woman are supposed to have a small bustline?) My secret to dressing well is knowing how to tailor clothes from the regular women's department. Many times it means I will shorten the sleeves (especially in short sleeve items) and hem the length. Also, I look for pieces that are on sale (clearance) that need more tailoring than I can do. That way the money I spend at the tailor's still makes the item affordable! Thank you Justine for your focus on us short girls!!
thank YOU for your tips!
I have the same problem with yours,😩😩
I have the same problem. 5’2 with an E cup. Nothing fits unless it is snug and stretchy.
I love how diplomatic and elegant you use your words to describe all the different body types. Very professional! Big compliment on that! :-)
Justine you are amazing !
Very informative and accurate.
Same colour outfit for tops and bottoms really works for me.Choosing the right length for skirts is so important, thank you for the advice!
Tres bien 👌 🦋😍🦋
Thank you for a complete and clear explanation of how to style a petite woman. I'm 5'1", 98 lbs., 47 yo with a very straight figure. This is super helpful. I've also learned from your videos that I have an oval face (I always thought I had a heart-shaped face, but no.) I love your videos, Justine. You are polished, intelligent, and eloquent.
Congrats on your 100k subscribers!
thaaaaanks!
A petite lady at 68 yrs. here thanking you for this video.. it's hard enough being on the older side of life, and to try to find something to wear is just as hard.lol.
Watching this video earlier would have saved me so much money I spent on clothes I will never wear after buying them. Because they make me look even more petite than I am. So thanks, this helped a lot.
This video deserves millions. Super helpful.
I feel like I have been struggling with skirts for a long time. this video helps a lot. It seems so obvious when you explain it. :)
+ceneris3005 good, I am glad 💙
Same here.
ceneris3005 I
Love the way you have created this , so calm and pleasant with the right amount of visuals and information. Im a petite myself from India which is why I ended up watching your video.
Great advice, great vid! 😍
I'm 149 cm and finding flattering outfits has always been a real struggle for me.
Dear Justine, thank you very much for this! I’m a Southeast Asian (Indonesian), and I’m petite even for my country’s standard. Usually fashion advice for petite women would recommend mid-thigh dresses/skirts and high heels, and nothing else. But the thing is, I wear modest clothing. For skirts/dresses, it usually means below knee or all the way down to the ankle. Your video helped expand my horizon and affirm that petite =/= immodest clothing. Thank you!
Thank you for this video at 5' 4" I'm on the edge of petite so many of these suggestions will work for me. Congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers! Could do a video with suggestions for us plus size women that are also vertically challenged?
Regarding the fitting of the clothes, my solution was learning how to sew. Shortening the length of pants in general is a must when you are pettit.
I really liked this video! I'm a petite girl so this video was very informative and inspiring to me. I subscribed to your channel maybe three weeks ago when I accidentally found your head shapes video, and I thought everything you said was very informative and the content was such good quality - straight to the point and very professional. You also inspired me to clean up my closet and to pass forward the clothes I didn't use, and by talking about the Fashion revolution week you raised my awareness about the fashion issues. Now I'm a lot more educated, thanks to you! I always look forward to new videos every Wednesday and Sunday. Keep up the good work, your content is very pleasing and your personality is wonderful! I hope you have a wonderful spring and coming summer!
+Agnusta so many compliments 😅... Thank you very much!!
5' tall and very very pear shaped - as I hit late twenties I went from very small everywhere with an hourglass figure to a very much larger hip with the same everything else. It feels hard, when the body changes and especially when it's hard to find good fits, but I am so encouraged by your videos. Helpful and informative and you make me feel like I'm not abnormal. thanks and keep making videos!
dang gurl, you're always answering the questions I have at the back of my mind. Love your videos. Keep it up! You totally deserve the now 200 over thousand subscribers
I just leaned that I’m a small or petite person by looking for formal gowns for a trip I was taking. Now I’m trying to make what I have look good when it comes to old stuff I have. Your video is helping me find what to keep and what to give way.
I'm petite and I have an hourglass figure. It's a struggle.
Thank you for the video, and thanks for remembering us, petite women.
Thank you for your brilliant videos. I live in Australia and I'm 66 years old and still love dressing well. I have gained a lot of confidence and knowledge from your videos. Thank you xx
You are the first french woman I know who prounounces the `h´ like we do in Holland
😁
you mean the "hourglass" at the end?... noticed than when editing the video... hahaha
Justine, PLEEESE, more new videos!!! People love u! U are so helpful, informative and intelligent! And more for us, petites!!!
Congratulations Justine. 100K subscribers is a great and well-deserved achievement. I really enjoy your videos.
Beth Duffu
Finally I found a tutorial for a short bodytype who isn't fat! I have hourglass also. I have no idea how to dress so I just went for what I felt comfortable in. Seems like I already do dress the best way for my body, that's a relief. Maybe tops I never use V-shaped so I will try more of that and showing neck down to the crutch. Thanks girl!
Congratulations , Yay!! Thank you Justine for all your insight and the beautiful way you present this out to us.
Thank you for the information on petites. Being petite, I found it very helpful and will apply your advice when dressing from now on.
THANK YOU, Justine!!!
Her little nod after each piece of advice is adorable :)
Oh Justine, I met you for the first time ever today. What a lovely lady you are!! You inspire confidence without lecturing. Thank you so much. Wish I had seen you before picking a knee length dress with belt with big fern pattern which I loved, and I don't like high heels... for my daughters graduation last year. I will know better for her next one in 3 year's time...
It's always a real pleasure to watch your videos! Hugs & sunshine 🌞 N
+Sunshine Crystal ahhh... here you are 🤗☀
Thank you for this! At 5'1", my clothing choices have always been something I questioned. Your videos are always a pleasure to watch!
hello I love your videos,thank you!!! very smart!!!! can you do a video about thick legs ???please.
Thank you so much for this video! We petite women get left of fashion videos many times. I liked this so much I liked and subscribed!
Can I just say, I totally get why some girls who are petite would want to look taller or bigger :) But for me personally, I love being small! It's such a personality quirk. Same goes for whatever size and shape you are. But it is fun sometimes to put on some killer heels and go up a foot haha
Justine, you have clearly one of the best TH-cam channels. Your videos are a pleasure to watch and learn from - congratulations on your well deserved success!
+Annie Jones wow, thank you!
Please make a video on how to turn a morning outfit or work clothes to evening or fancy dinner outing.. for women on the go. Say you are working and suddenly you got invited and you don't have time to go home or change. How can I transform what I am already wearing.. even if I had to do light shopping just an hour before my evening appointment or date.
A_Little_Me u know that is a good idea 💡
Nehad Salman Maybe you can find a corner at your workplace where you can store an "emergency outfit" or at least some shoes? Otherwise...get a big handbag and carry a pair of heels, maybe a fancy belt and some jewellery with you...also, practice creating easy yet elegant updoes with your hair (lots of tutorials on that) and find a lipstick you are comfortable wearing...putting your hair up and wearing lipstick can already dramatically change your look. Also...men are easily intimidated/taken aback by women who are too dressed up or wear too much make-up. Going all out, especially on a first date can even be counterproductive. So don't stress yourself too much about what you're wearing. Use that hour to take a walk or have a snack somewhere so you're relaxed and refreshed for your date. Much more important than colour coordinating your shoes and handbag.
I find a long, light weight scarf (my current favourite has paillettes), earrings and extra shoes helpful in that situation. If the evening outing is more casual, add a leather jacket to the above. Scarf goes around the neck w the jacket, or around the shoulders for a dressier night out. A pouchette inside your workbag can carry all but the shoes, and becomes your evening bag, once emptied. I agree about red lipstick!
Rara Avis oh thank you! I will practice that for sure..💐
kay gell nice 👍🏽 I will start carrying a scarf. I can even use it to style my bag. 💐 thank u
So happy to have found your channel. Now I feel I can't buy another item until
I've watched all your videos! Also sharing them!! These information are "must know" for everyone. Yet I've learnt none of this after years of reading fashion magazines!
this is quite funny for me as i am petit and i always followed these rules just because i like it like that. now i know why
Thank you, Justine, for this video! :) I'm 156 cm tall and my husband is 198. I've found that I was subconsciously following some of your suggestions but now I know everything! ;)
That was fantastic. Thank you so much. Could you do one on leg shape? For instance, I have short, thick legs, so I never really feel comfortable in short skirts or slim pants. What would work best?
Yes please!
Thank you so much Justine! I'm 5'3" and medium build. I learned some new things from this video that are very helpful! I appreciate the visuals you did.
Petite, hourglass and curvy: not so easy to dress. Thanks.
SAME.
@@nafsi8519 sarees don't look good on short bodies :((
@@nafsi8519 yes! I'm 5'3" and unless I wear heels to go with, I look like a frump 😭
Me too
@@nafsi8519 thanks!
Thanks for all the information you share with us. My sister and I follow your videos. We are from Puerto Rico in the Caribbean.
I’m petit and small 😁 i can’t wear high heels because rheumatoid arthritis, thank you for this video 😉❤️
Me.too...its such a struggle
Hi Justine, I'm so happy for this video. I'm petite (1.53 and 46 kg) and I have never heard such a bright explanation of what a petite person is, and exactly as you said, the lengths, the sleeves everything is a problem, and the offer of petite sizes are very limited, thats why I have a very good taylor. Curiously I tent to do what you said, but by trial and error I guess, now I know why, it would be very easy now choose and buy better. So helpful! Congratulations!!!! You've been doing an excellent job and you are so nice, and this is just the beginning!
Thumbs up always👍🏼💛
Thank you for your advice 😍 I'm 151 cm and I'm 21 so often I look like a child or a lot younger than I am 😢
You're so knowledgeable Justine, I love your advice and the way you present it! You're firm in your opinions but you're not judgmental and you give people options, it's so refreshing and honest. 💕💕💕
+Celia Agnes that's exactly how I tried to present my content, thank you so much 🤗🤗🤗
Hayden cannot stand next to her hubby if she wants to look “taller” 😂
I agree with many sentiments here...you are so lovely, kind, thoughtful. I’ve been bingeing on your videos to catch up. I’ve learned from you, but you also support many of my evolving style and life choices. Mercí! (From this petite one.)
congrats on subbies.
enjoy and always learn something new. I am 5'3" too funny never considered myself petite. Long legs, but so petite pants have never worked. But I am realizing that in a blazer or coat a petite small is best. Not an option in high end brands so tailoring is always a must for classic, quality pieces. thanks again.
Lisa C I am five ft four and never can wear petite clothing. I also have long legs and a shorter torso. I still find helpful hints from this video though like a monochromatic look and lengths for dresses and such.
The way you speak and describe shows so much empathy in your voice. Glad that I have discovered your channel. Subbed. 🤗
Menswear?... for "petite" men. Yes we exist. 5' 2" (157cm) and 118 pounds (54kg). Inverted triangle and very athletic.
Men's petite in the US starts at 5'8.5 (174cm) as most the regular sized clothes are based off 5'10 (178cm).
Maybe Peter Manning NYC would be a good brand worth researching as it's a petite men's specialty brand.
I am new to your channel and I really enjoy it. You are very knowledgable and have a special skill in transmitting the information in a very simple way. Plus your personality is sooo nice!!
I love your videos,very informative. Could you do a video for dressing over 50
Jane Hancock ...I was wondering the same and then thought why can’t we wear the same styles she is showing? I’m 65 and 5’5” but heck...her styles are great.
I am very petite so I have been ordering petite clothes for work and it's amazing when things are proportioned correctly. Thanks for your video!!
im a petite pear 😞 thank you❤
I think I'm a 67yr apple...
Me too
I'm the same! It's the worst body type to have. You never really look good.
@@orlaw.8213 What?? My dream is to be a pear shape. I am a rectangle and i hate my body. You guys are lucky to be pear shaped!
Me too but also flat-chested, so I really don't know how to look good in anything, it's so hard😭
Petite, pear shaped & a slight bit plus sized here. These videos have helped with extra tips & have affirmed that I am doing things right most of the time. Bell bottomed or boot cut jeans are my go to which has been very difficult to find when shopping with the dang skinny jeans trend.
Hi Justine can you do a video on petites and tunics . Pleeeeese thank you.😀😀😀
What a great video! The examples were so helpful. I am a petite rectangle shape with a tummy so I want to combine all the advice.
From a Petite woman: Thank you, thank you, thank you Justine!
you have such a clever notion of fashion and style. It's always a joy to watch your videos.
I always love your videos and this one especially as I am petite etc. Petite women aren't celebrated enough as "petite". Many of the most celebrated actresses were short and had wildly different styles:
Elizabeth Taylor
Vivien Leigh
Natalie Portman
Scarlett Johanssen
Joan Crawford
Salma Hayek
Natalie Wood
Audrey Tautou
Bette Davis
Sarah Jessica Parker
Thandie Newton
Bo Derek
Rooney/Kate Mara
Winona Ryder
Helena Bonham Carter
Vanessa Paradis
Isla Fisher
Mae West/Veronica Lake/Jean Harlow
Mila Kunis
Reese Witherspoon
Lucy Lui
Zoe Kravitz/Lisa Bonet/Jade Pinkett
Emilia Clarke
Drew Barrymore
Carrie Fisher
Gillian Anderson
Janelle Monae
Christina Ricci
Leilah E. Thank you for the list! This is so helpful
What do you mean "were" short?
They're all alive
maham meher I thought Elizabeth Taylor died?
@@Melissa.Garrett yes, as have several others on this list as well
Nice!
And thank you soooo much for uploading videos which really help us,women to get in shape with our daily dress codes and all. I love all of your videos, the way you talk,the way you present them😊
It would be nice of you if you can do video on "How to reuse clothes which we haven't used in months/years and how to modify them in to something we can wear"
Thank you again! :)
Do one for long legs and short body.... please:)
Please help us long legged women too. So tired of pants that are too short (ankle pants are everywhere and are mid calf on me), "high waist" jeans that land well above belly button (taller people often have longer legs, but not longer torsos). We don't want to look like a giraffe. Or Gumby 😑
Susan Holl For a casual look I often combine capri length pants with knee socks for that reason...but it's a different look, of course. Great with boots and sneakers, not so great with ballerinas and pumps and the like, in my opinion. Or just give the middle finger to current fashion and wear slacks or other widelegged trousers. For some reason they're easier to find in an adequate length. And they do look fabulous on us giraffes 😊.
Rara Avis Going to hunt wide legged trousers. Thanks for the tip!
Rara Avis Going to hunt wide legged trousers. Thanks for the tip!
That’s my problem, and I always go for a low-rise on skirts (I almost never wear trousers, but it would apply to those too). Mid-thigh miniskirts are great because they show off your assets (legs) and I tend to wear tops untucked and slightly longer than the waistband of my skirt to lengthen the torso. V-necks and scoop necks elongate the neck and above the bust, so they’re a must for me too. It’s taken me years to realise I can’t stray much beyond this pattern, much as I might like to sometimes. 😔 Oh, and pendant necklaces are great too!
Justine, i have only begun watching your videos and I'm thoroughly enchanted. You are a marvelous raconteur who makes beautiful style accessible to all. Some of your suggestions are common sense, well established fashion rules but presentation is everything in this competitive world and you're definitely a breath of fresh air. Many TH-cam hosts are overly glamorous and trying too hard to look like celebrities. Your personal style is sleek, easy on the eyes and exudes an authenticity that one rarely sees. So many women try too hard to be beautiful. You appear very happy in your skin. 😉 Looking forward to your future videos. (I expect I will be binging on those I have not yet seen.)
WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE so much pain and frustration could have been avoided...
Thanks so helpful, i always used to think petite meant small & thin...which is my target. This video helps when shopping for coordinates
justine - i'm 5'1 and have an hourglass body. i never know what bikini shapes would suit me and hence have never bought one. i have double D breasts and that's a problem too, makes in worse in knowing what will look good on me. You have suggestions? any help would be wonderful! :)
Maybe halter tops that cover most of the chest and tops that are horizontal instead of triangular.
Barenya Nayak I am 4"11
Kat Webb, Unfortunately, halters are rarely an option for those with larger busts because it's hard to find a supportive and comfortable bra that will work for halters. Even strapless often requires some compromise, so halters are usually straight out. This is a reason why you rarely see those with larger natural breasts wearing spaghetti-strap tops. You can't hide a bra under it, and braless will typically look frumpy.
I would very much like to see a video done for this sort of body type! Clothing advice for petites and hourglasses tend to conflict seriously, especially if you happen to have more complications on top of that, like being plus-sized or close, like classy or conservative styles, and cannot wear or do not like heels.
A more pronounced bustline in particular can be very tricky on a petite lady because shorter frames usually also have narrower shoulders, which can make an already-large bust look ENORMOUS.
Justine, I am 5'0" (about 154cm), with differences of about 22cm between bust and underbust, about another 2cm between underbust and waist, and another 22 between waist and hips. At a smaller size my underbust-to-waist difference changes, but the others remain about the same. It's an extremely challenging body type to dress, so please assist!
I subscribed few days ago but it's already clear to me that you deserve every one of your subscriptions! There aren't lot of youtubers creating quality contents like you. Plus you seem to be a truly down-to-earth person! Thanks Justine :)
161 cm here, these tips are so helpful! I'm glad I like deep v-necks! :)
This was really helpful - I'm not actually that petite, but I have quite short limbs so some of these tips help with that. Also explains why some of my favourite outfits became favourites.
Thanks for your videos, I just found your channel recently, and already your videos are must watch when you make a new one. it's really nice to have in depth discussions around fashion on youtube, while still keeping a sense of fun I think!
Im 1.47! So I struggle a lot! Heels are out of the question for me, not only that they are uncomfortable, finding my size is basically impossible..
On another note- I dont want to say that I want to make myself appear taller, I love my size and shape, it makes me unique! But finding clothes for myself, that will fit well- thats a whole other story.. :)
I enjoy your videos a lot BTW- you have great energy! :)
+KateDubi thanks 😊🤗
KateDubi what size shoes do u wear? .... I'm also 1.47 I alter most my clothes and my shoe size is us4 or eur 34 so I buy them online from Amazon us and ship them internationally heheh the struggle is real and costly
Im the same size as you, but my foot is a bit wide I think, so a lot of shoes are too narrow for me, even if the size is OK.. I dont have a lot of "grown up" shoes..
Thank you for coming into my life - you are helping me enormously; you are very wise and knowledgeable yet light-hearted and full of common sense!.
thanks a lot!
When you say knee-length, I never know it that is the middle of knee, above the knee, or below the knee.
+Mare Graphix if you are petite, I would avoid all 3...
