As an advocate for tall women, being six feet tall myself, I'm on what seems like a permanent quest to find the best tall skirts.
The problem is, I am so underwhelmed at the amount of brands that actually cater to people of a certain height - let alone the lack of size inclusivity across the board. I’d imagine that petite people feel the same way.
You would think that, being 2021 and all, these kinds of issues would no longer exist and that all clothing would be available in petite, tall, plus size and everything else. If we’re going to preach body positivity then we need to do so for ALL bodies. In my constant search for skirts suited to those 5'9" and above, I’ve found only a few brands that fit the bill. While there are definitely more tall-inclusive labels now than there were a few years ago, the amount of products they have on offer is wanting. My biggest pet peeve is finding an item of clothing I love only to discover that it’s not available in tall sizes.
I'm 6ft tall and these are the best tall jeans for women I've found (and bought)
Gallery23 PhotosAs well as my struggle in finding tall jeans, coming across tall skirts that actually cover my bum is a whole other story. I can’t tell you the amount of times I was told off at school for having a skirt that was “too short”, and no, I didn’t roll it up – I’ve just always been tall. The other issue is finding midi skirts that fall below my knee. Yep, the struggle is real.
Us tall gals just want to feel pretty and look cute like the rest of the female population, is that too much to ask? Summer months are made so much easier at the thought of slipping into a breezy maxi skirt or summer dress, and winter calls for a classic mini skirt, tights and black boots combo. Actually finding said skirts is a whole other task, but one which I am here to help with.
