Thank you for the tips. At my age (67) I don't worry too much about my height anymore. Sometimes I'm monochromatic and other days I just wear whatever I'm in the mood for.
Thank you Marie-Anne.
What I like the most about this video is that you considered all the factors, which is a necessary and different approach from the so many "how to style a petite body size" videos on TH-cam.
I am very petite.Thank you for making this video,I love it
I’m an hourglass petite and just love it! Love your videos as well, Marie Anne!
Je suis petite 😉 but I like colour blocking and trousers that end at my ankles. I may not look tall but I look cute and I feel great in those outfits 😊
En bundt,ager,arbejder netop nu,på et par nye bukser til mig.nøje udmålt,vil de passe perfekt...det gør stangtøj ikke.en skrædder kan også trylle.man skal vide præcist,hvad man ønsker...det er jo den dyre måde,der aldrig bliver mit første valg,men en sjælden gang imellem...er det SKØNT,med unika🦄
Great video! I am very short, with short legs, a very long torso, and an hourglass body shape. I prefer bootcut jeans, and I am glad that you confirm they are better. Can you talk about accessories like scarves and jewelry. I prefer monochromatic outfits.
Oh, same shape here; we are not alone! 😁 it is a challenging one to dress, I think. I like bootcut too; with a heel; anything that makes the legs look longer is a friend to us!
I like bootcut better too! So glad to see that style coming back and easier to find.
You just described my body. I like my top or jacket the same color of my pants or skirt, creating a column of color. A camisole under an open shirt works well for me.
I am petite. I don't care about looking taller, but I do want flattering outfits!
Thanks for the tips. I'm a petite (about 5' 2"). One thing that I've learned is to try both the regular and petite. The regular can be tailored if needed. One brand of jeans that I had, the petite fit best. But when I lost some weight and needed to go down a size, the petite were just a little on the short side. I could wear the regular and hem them, which is one of the few bits of tailoring that I can do myself.
I'm an artist, and whenever I draw, it's all about keeping it simple! I apply this design principle to the way I dress as well!
Dear Marie-Anne, your enthusiasm
is contagious! thanks for these tips, I will try to recreate these outfits, I’m petite and hourglass type, I always struggle with sleeves and trousers length!
Keep safe and healthy,
Michela
Thanks for reminding me of all these tips. A long line doesn’t get broken up so I look slimmer, more sophisticated even while I live at the beach
Merci Marie-Anne! Excellent vidéo. You have all the answers for matching garments wisely and look good. Please stick to your styling videos. You are number one style adviser.
I'm 5'3" but have short torso and long legs and arms and have been told that I appear taller. Great outfit ideas especially advise on white/off white styling.
Thank you for this video. Being petite, I have always struggled with what to wear to appear taller. I love your ideas for the monochrome looks and boot cut pants. Unfortunately, I am finding that most European clothing companies do not offer the petite sizing like in the US. Merci, Marie-Anne!!
Asos has petites. New Look too.
Dear Marie-Anne, thank you for your knowlegde of clothes video.
Thank you Marie Anne, as a petite, all my life try to followup basic stylist rules, but... Today learn a new for me, one color rule, really works. As always, really appreciate your videos.
Great ideas for outfits..!
Easy, simple and timeless
Merci 🌸
You know I always love the petite videos! 😃 Nice outfits; I never thought of the white/off white combo and it looks great.
It is really stunning. Unfortunately I am expert at spilling food on anything white so I'll have to work up my courage! 😁 With my coloring, I am thinking of maybe reversing the white and off-white. And of course, a V or scoop neckline for that darn big bust!
Wht and off wht is a fashion crime 🤪
@@minas2207really, u don't think white / off white is good together
The problem of the petite size is one of my challenges. I’m 5feet barely 1 inches tall. Rectangle. Since following you I’ve become much more sensitive to the proportions I wear but I still have a lot of trouble making decisions. The whole thing about patterns and cuts i haven’t dominated yet. A work in progress.
Hi Marie-anne. I love offwhite and white together. I think it looks very smart!! Bec xx⚘
Thank you for showing the white on white outfit. I’ve always tried to avoid it because of the whole trying to match the same white tones together head to toe. My fall back would always be black & white. I think I am going to go for it today. It is Sunday the 7th. I live in the UK and It’s summer of course, but this weekend,as you know, it feels like early spring, early autumn temperatures with wind. I will go with my ecru coloured soft jumper and white trousers. Thank you for giving me my outfit inspiration for today. Glad I watched this video this morning.
Thank you, I appreciate and enjoy your petite videos. I still struggle to find much selection available in petite sizes that are good quality and fashionable. This week I’ve ordered from multiple online stores because no one in the United States carries them in the store. I decided I’ll just order multiple sizes and see what fits.
Bonjour Suzan - it is hard to find good petite selections - most brands just think that making garments smaller automatically means they are good for petites 🤷♀️
Beautiful outfits Marie-Anne. I am 5'1" so this video is for me.
It's hard to pick a favourite. Yes i can easily recreate the white/off white outfit. Beautiful. I have a sleeveless chic black linen dress midi length and love the idea of nude shoes. And i can do the third outfit. Easy. Thanku very much for the tips. ❤ Bev 😊
You are very welcome Bev - let me know how you get on x
The other side of my story. I’m tall so I struggled to look “average” when I was a teenager. Not anymore!
Here most women are petite and make lots of mistakes trying to look taller.
One of the worst is when they wear big and thick platforms to look taller. However they get the opposite effect. Heavy, big platforms make them look heavier, terribly unbalanced and adding one mistake over another, they walk funny. A big no-no!
Some also wear very bright colors despite their body shape and that’s also a terrible mistake.
Sharing your video in order to light some of my Costa Rican latinas a ray of light, so those struggling with their petite height can learn how to make the best out of it!
A bientot Marie-Anne!
Hello David and Marie -Anne, I have seen the platform shoe look and never liked it for myself at 5'1", when I was much younger I could wear boots with a higher heel (not spikes) today as a senior lady, I go for more of a "uniform" look that I can pair with most of what I have. Let's just admit that shorter people should stick with a monotone look because you have to be very tall and quite thin to pull off the "looks" that people see in magazines. Since I have always been the backpacker, gardener, animal lover, horseback rider, I tend towards casual anyway but Marie Anne has given me that extra inspiration to go a bit further!
Dee Wood you can adjust the clothes and accessories accordingly to your body, height and style but most important, you must feel comfortable and beautiful. It’s not what others say, is how you feel.
And remember when we feel beautiful and happy inside, we look that way on the outside.
People see in us what we have inside.
And as Marie-Anne says, style over fashion and your style is a reflection of yourself.😸
Bonjour Marie Anne. How nice to see you this evening, I'm five foot nine, so always buy regular length in trousers etc... I'm sooooo desperate to go shopping in all my fantastic charity shops, missing them terribly, but oh my goodness I've saved sooo much money in last two months, so gotta be good I guess!!!!! Keep safe and best wishes mon Cherie Paula x
I like these outfits, but I also wear dark socks when wearing dark pants and shoes to eliminate the “white foot break”. For lengthening I also like a dress with a contrasting long cardigan, another tip I learned from you - this makes the body look slimmer as well as longer. Thanks for another terrific video.
62 yrs old now , in the 80s first discovered the straight /bootleg jeans perfect for me. Maybe I tricked the midwife first visited in clinic , she thought at first was 5 cm longer. TY for this video.
Hello Marie-Anne, I fully agree with your three proposals. Whenever I deviate from the advices given in this video, I feel very uncomfortable and I immediately return to these basic rules. You comforted me by specifying that monochrome tones can be combined even if the colors are not exactly the same. A big thank you from a little French woman: 1m58, 41 kilos, rectangle shape! I would love to have your silhouette 😭 ... and your elegance❣️
Marie-Anne Lecoeur Merci Marie-Anne ❣️🇫🇷❣️
*WOW* !!!! *Navy sweater with blue jeans is ssssoooo COOL* !!!! *LOVE this black dress with nude heels* !! #MarieAnneLeCoeur
I love your advice about simplicity. I have gone back to my naturally wavy hair and I notice that because my hair has a lot of texture and body I look best with simple outfits that don’t add even more detail to my look. I love your videos, you look great in everything.
Thank you for giving much needed suggestions for those of us who are horizontally challenged. I'm 5'1" and thin except for my tummy. That adds to my problem of looking stylish. Always researching ways to overcome.
I am 5’3 xspetite hourglass. I can wear all of theses outfits. Some people don’t understand that petite is also a proportion. Thank you for mentioning that. I wear jeans a lot. I didn’t realize that bootcut adds heights. I will have to add a couple more pair to my wardrobe. I mostly have skinny jeans. I do like bootcut. I love wearing heels and wedges as they are also dressier even with a casual outfit. I have more than one lbd that is a must. It can be styled many ways for all seasons.Finding petites that are pretty is difficult to do. Petites departments are very small. Most of the clothes are ugly or not at all the classic style I love. I do have a couple of places I shop that have petite friendly clothing. Thank you for doing this video Marie- Anne.I always look forward to your advice.
Love this length of hair on you 😍
Thank you so much for your thorough review of the rules for petites. I have heard them before yet seem to get off track at times. Then I wonder why I feel shorter and heavier in a particular outfit. Once again, you clarify things for me. I think a purge is warranted and unfortunately I have the time to do it since I’m following the pandemic rules too.
The v-shape or high neckline is more lengthening on petites. U- shape necklines do shorten upper torso so avoid them.
I belong to the IBTC, so V-necks look ridiculous on me. 🤣
@@annad.l6087 What is that?
Great advice I always learn something new.
I am 5ft 1- I appreciate the outfits shown. Easy to recreate and optically streamlines those of us that are vertically challenged. I am very short waisted which can be a challenge but thank you for the tips
I love the term “vertically challenged “. Haha. I will use that more often myself! I’m not small, I’m just “vertically challenged”. It’s not a problem it’s just a challenge!
There were some great tips in the video; white and off white and the fine vertical stripe. I'll be looking for a fine knit with a fine stripe. Thank you Marie-Anne, I always feel better about myself after seeing your videos, there is hope even if at 157 cm. I've never worn boot leg jeans but I'll be searching some out. I have to be in the right frame of mind to clothes shop - NZ has very few petite brands. Best buy ever is my petite Hobbs trench which I bought when in UK last year, thank you for recommending the brand.
Having lighter colors blend but not match is a new concept for me - thank you!
❤️❤️❤️ I'm 5 feet tall and this Video applies to me. Muchas gracias from Madrid, Spain.
Thank you Marie-Anne, I am a tiny 4'6" (134cms) and was looking for some style suggestions so this is perfect.
I'm 5'4" and don't care at all about looking taller, in fact I feel awkward when I am taller than the person I'm talking to. On the other hand, I am going to try wearing one colour or similar colours top and bottom, because I do want to look more slender, and I think that is the same thing optically as looking taller. Today I was wearing a colour blocked outfit with a contrasting top and bottom and I didn't like it when I saw myself in a full length mirror. It looked clunky on me. Now I understand why. I think it would be okay if the contrasting element was a long sweater for instance, because that would create a long line. Outfits that cut me in half in the middle just have to go!
Happy Start of Summer Marie! As a petite person, I try to get the best buys when shopping for a certain garments I always
Buy simple and classic. If I buy a flower blouse I keep it simple
and it always works!
Your sizing tips are true. American catalog's petite hip width is usually 1/2" less than the regular size. The east and west is scaled down as well as north and south A pear shape may need a full bottom, requiring a regular size, but with hemming. Separate pieces in the same color, as you suggest, are the secret. Thanks!
Sempre brava e veramente elegante
Hello Marie-Anne. Thank you for this video, it is so helpful. In reference to the little black dress, I noticed you had nude shoes? Can you wear black heels? And if so should your stockings be black? I am trying to get a nice outfit together for a Thanksgiving dinner and I have the perfect black dress but not sure about the shoes?
THANK YOU 🕊🇺🇲💕
Hi Marie-Anne, I definitely enjoyed this video. As a very petite, slim woman, I am blessed to be in good proportion. I can wear what I like. My biggest challenge is finding what I like. Theory is my favorite place to shop, but they really don’t carry much in dress wear - particularly for cocktail attire. The petite section in any store is always a very scaled down version of what is offered in regular sizes. The #1 must is to have a great alterations specialist. Cheers 😎
Not familiar with Sumissura - will have to research! Thank you for the suggestion!
Minimalism in style (this is how I still like to use this word) is of course a bit different, to what nowadays in social media is called minimalism. where is is more about lifestyle and a sort of spartan style. I think, you used minimalism here, as it is used in fashion, architecture etc. I think, I know, what you mean, by simplicity in regard to french chic. when I was in Paris 2 years ago, I noticed that on street-wear. even with the younger people. not that everybody was chic :-) but one could see the tendency
@@MarieAnneLecoeur that is true! it's just, 18 years ago, I called this 'spartan' style (regarding lifestyle/furniture) or reduced/concentrated style ;-D but in German of course. that were the only words, that came into my mind then
As a 63 inches tall woman and an American size 2 I love the look of being a tiny woman and really dont have problems finding clothes that fit. I wish women would see the beauty in being petite and accept how it adds to their individuality. Of course Maries advice is spot on for those who wish to appear taller and that is of course their right. I love this womans advice but I just do not feel that being tall or looking tall is something to aspire to. Individual beauty is what I aspire to and I love being petite as I accept my beauty.
Thank you 😊 I loved this video too. I’m hourglass, breasts are on the big side which can make me look bigger. I bought a navy jumpsuit with a vneck and it looks so good.
I do find these outfits very simple to create, I need to add bootcut jeans to my wardrobe now as all my jeans are skinny jeans, they look ok especially if I wear a peplum top.
Good morning Madame. I truly never thought of myself as a petite until a recent physician's office visit measured me at 5' 2". For years I had thought of myself as being 3 inches taller. How do you wear something like a colored t-shirt or pants with another color and not look stumpy? I don't always want to wear monochromatic clothes. I would love a video addressing that topic. As always, your latest video was much enjoyed and I look forward to your next one. Thank you!
In cooler temperatures you could use layers to add splashes of color, while still keeping a uniform vertical color story. Try wearing a colorful, collared shirt under a crew neck, or V-neck pullover sweater, letting the collar and cuffs peek out. Or wear a colorful t-shirt (or other top) under a cardigan, or blazer; even worn open, they would help continue the vertical line, if they’re the same color as your pants.
I love all 3. If pants are too long, I feel like I'm dragging myself and dirtying the pant hems.
MsBackstager I hate pants dragging and dirtying the pant hems. Hate long pants too, that are too long.
You look fabulous in everything that you wear! You are absolutely beautiful!!
I've shrunk to 5 ft. Thanks for the tips!
Marie-Ann, thank you so much for the video and for the all advise that you giving to us . Very helpful for me because I'm petite 😉. Take care 😘
Very useful for this petite woman. Lots of tips packed into this video.
Thanks Marie-Anne. You gave great advice. I am guilty of wearing contrasting colours - navy top with white shorts. I am going to start trying to wear similar colours as you recommended (cream top with white shorts or something like that).
Love the tips for petite size! Thank you
Great video!! I typically wear boot cut jeans in Fall/Winter and skinny crop jeans in Spring/Summer. 😁
I like these ideas very much and will work them in. Thanks.
Great info on having a belt the same color!🌟
I love your videos! I am a petite rectangle and appreciate this fashion advice. Thank you!
Thank you Marie-Anne for these tips . They're very helpful. ❤
Bonjour Marie-Anne. I am 5' 4.5" I call myself petite but my friends don't think I'm petite. I think you figured it out for me. I think I am short-waisted, but on petite-sized clothing the shoulders are usually too tight and the sleeves too short. I have no issues with pants though but sometimes I do need to get them shortened. Another great video. Merci.
Thank you, Marie-Anne very helpful tips as always.
I am 5' 4" and agree with sticking to the same color family when possible. I love navy on navy and black on black. I am going to try white with cream or oatmeal color for a change.
Meaning white and cream or off white and beige with oatmeal or white. I don't like pure white on white.
🌿💙This was so well timed! I know which clothing to keep out for spring/summer! And..I need to get nude shoes in my life!😍💙🌿
Not difficult to create, thanks
Excellent post Am 5 9 but will share this with my daughter who is petite and dainty . Great outfits .
Love the outfits !!!
Beautiful ideas! Thank you Marie-Anne.
Dear Marie-Anne, You look so wonderful in your clothes. Have you ever thought of designing your own line? The black dress you wear in this video is absolutely gorgeous but I see nothing like it in stores. I also want to tell you that you remind me of Diane de Poitiers.
What do you reckon about Inès de La Fressange style?
Great video Marie -Anne! Think the tip being offered here are great and are useful, not just for Petites.
@@MarieAnneLecoeur I agree wholeheartedly!
Thankyou. Easy to remember.
Thanks for sharing this video. I am petite 5’2 and I would like you to give ideas about shorts. Plus I love the blue and white striped tops . Please give your views on this. Thank you
I used to be 5’5” tall and now I am only 5’3”! I miss my lost inches and welcome your advice! 😌
Je suis petite et adore la robe fourreau!
❤️Thank you for your great expertise advice! 💐❤️👏
I loved this and it came at the right time as I'm in the middle of your petite course. Thank you x
Please tell me:
1-How 2 use scarves 4 petite
2-How 2 use 💼 bags: colors+ shape 4 petite
3-How to use accessories : size/length
4- Shape of shoes 👠
5- width of belt
Thks in anticipation 😘
makes sense!!! thanks
I am five feet tall and just over 100 pounds. I have a terrible time finding clothes that fit, let alone finding things that I like. Most shoes aren't even made in my size (5), let alone ones that I like that don't hurt my narrow heel/wide toebox feet. Marie-Anne says not to "give up", but there's only so much time to waste hunting for what's not available.
Love my hour glass shape
Don't like new age skinny look buy I do like some of your ideas😊
You have to love your shape Mya - that is the very first step in style
Great video Marie-Anne. I was always 5'5", but may have shrunk a little. I'm not a true petite though, as I have long arms and legs. I agree with the "column of colour" and simplicity if you're not tall. What if you were petite and short waisted (say a rectangle or inverted triangle)? It may be better to leave tops untucked in that case. What do you think?
Thank you so much! You are such a blessing 💗💞
I’m not petite, I’m 5 foot 5 (167cm) but plus size and like flats more than high heels, so I use a lot petite recommendations. I also use the Kibbe System and I use the lines for my specific body type, long lines suit me luckily. A lot of petite people wants too look taller, but sometimes they look better in colorblocks, some Gamines for example 🤗
Marie-Anne Lecoeur I know what you mean, the height, the body shape and size and the best colors is sometimes enough 🙈☺️
Great video with easy advice to follow outfits. I need to get bootcut jeans!
I am a huge fan of bootcut and flared jeans. I’ve recently discovered that if I buy pants that are meant to be cropped, they work on me as long pants. It’s my new favorite find! I am cleaning out my closet and starting over with adult clothes that fit me. So excited!
So I love the simplicity and this looks good on petite and me too. my question is when it’s super hot out I do not like wearing shorts but a short Capri pants is most appealing functionally. how do I style a short pant or a rolled up trouser look without looking dumpy
Wonderful as always!
Bonjour Mme Lecoeur!! Thank you for this helpful video on petite dressing. I’m 60+ and petite but these rules could be applied to a petite of any age. Agreed that contrasting the top & bottom cuts off the sillouette into half but glad to know that whites suited petites too. Thought only taller ones had this privilege.
Just curious to know with reference to your earlier video on the red dress coordinates, (which I appreciated very much) whether petites could go in for the black pullover/blazer/ scarf options at all or the last one ( black frilly blouse inside the dress) in order to go by this one basic rule.
Love your tips!
Amazing I am petite ! Gracias !😘
Merci, Mary-Anne. Your "little black dress" is the epitome of elegance. I like the sleeve length on the black top you are wearing with the blue jeans in this video. Nice style sleeve for the petite, mature woman like myself. The tips on color blocks and wearing similar colors is most helpful. I own mostly black dress trousers and pair them with tops in heather or dark gray. I am uncomfortable wearing white or ivory pants - not my style. Any suggestions what color trousers might work with a bisque or sand color cashmere sweater? I was thinking light blue denim jean.
I think high waist pants are better for petites. The low rise on your white pants is not going to be flattering for most petites.
5’4”” is difficult as it’s right on the cusp . Thank you for the video
TFS 🤩
Brands are all different. Some brands will shorten the sleeves on a shirt, but leave the shirt length the same as regular size.
Some brands give petites a slimmer, more tailored shape; some don't. Try to check their measurements on-line. In many Petites, you have to size up a whole size in Petites.
Excellent
