Being short doesn’t mean you can’t rock Hanfu! Here are a few tips to help make sure you look amazing:
Go for higher waistlines: This will help create the illusion of longer legs. Look for styles where the waist sits a bit higher, like empire waist or high-waisted skirts.
Choose shorter skirts: If long skirts feel overwhelming, try something a bit shorter. A mid-calf length skirt or one that hits just above the ankle will keep the proportions in balance.
Keep layers minimal: Too many layers can make you look shorter, so keep it simple and opt for fewer, more streamlined pieces.
With these tips, you’ll create a beautiful, balanced look that flatters your shorter frame while still looking super elegant.
