Styling a look based on your OWN body type is very crucial. I mean, how many girls do you know who have Deepika’s athletic frame or Priyanka’s perfect curves, right?

Wear a monochrome look from head-to-toe in order to elongate the body. It tricks the eyes into thinking that it’s looking at one long unit, as opposed to a colour blocked ensemble that breaks your silhouette.
2. Wear a longline jacket
A longline jacket is gives the illusion of height thanks to its length and fall. Add a few of these to your wardrobe and team them with pants or dresses.
3. Choose High-Waisted Skirts

4. Go for Vertical Stripes
Vertical stripes make the eye go from top to bottom, giving the illusion of a longer frame. If the pants are high-waisted, then double brownie points for you!
5. Add A Thin Belt Above The Waistline
Create 40:60 body ratio by wearing a thin belt higher than your waist line. This gives the illusion of a longer bottom half, an essential if you want to look taller.
6. Choose Shorter Hem Lines
Make sure your hem line ends above your knees, so you can flaunt those legs proudly! Remember, midi length outfits do not flatter a petite figure.
7. Pointed Heels
