As a short girl, (5'2") I've found that it's more important that a garment fit correctly than that any particular style be sought out or avoided. The fullest part of the bust needs to match her bustline. The waistline should be at the waist. The hem should end at an intenional place: Just below the knee, for example. With that having been said, I did a quick google search for "tall girl fashion" and found a bunch of sites and stores, like this one: http://www.tallgirlshop.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=72&osCsid=5fd68503bf4749cf89a185a9a7981821 For the most part, the styles look consistent with what everybody else is wearing, everything is just made longer to fit a longer body. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
