As a 6’2 man the clothes I find which are right for my height are often very loose on me. And if I worry about the waist I look like a kid who grew a lot in the past 2 months and everything is too short for me.

Its not entirely universal, some stores are better than others. And I wear a lot of loose casual t-shirts so thats fine too. But finding dress shirts means some places work, some don’t.

    Tall women (5’ 7" / 170cm +) walk elegantly and have a poise often denied their shorter counterparts.

    Never be worried about being tall. I wish I had been blessed. Both wives were 5’4". I’m 6’ 183cm.

      I am about the same height as my husband (5’9") and was about the same height as my ex too, but his ex was tiny, and I joke with him about it because his sons are shorter than him, tell him tall ladies make tall kids, he should have planned better!

      So really I’m not even that tall, just taller than women’s regular clothes are. At least they make them now, Gap and Madewell are both serious about tall sizes, the rise on those fits well, the inseam too long for me but that’s an easier adjustment.

      And yeah I feel bad for really short ladies too, if the petites are just shorter inseams that won’t work either!
