You have to get them in petite, or well, I do or else it looks weird. Same with high low dresses, if they aren't petite then they just look awkward. But if they are then normally they're perfect!

Just roll them up or wear them high waisted, and just because someone is tall doesn't mean they have long legs and can pull off a maxi skirt, trust me, I'm 5'6 and have stubby little legs =)

Honey don't let your height limit you in what you wear! if you want to wear it than wear them! I think they are super cute and I don't think anyone is going to look at you and say oh she's too short to wear that... they will prob be like hey super cute skirt :-) if you do feel too short though or if it drags too much wear a cute pair of wedges with it!

Yes they do

Yes, that could work. If I was short than I would wear it with high heels and put the top over it, instead of tucked in. And I'll make sure it doesn't end over my shoes. A skirt with a more flowing fabric is ideal for that.

Yes. Just make sure it's not too long and you're good.

You can wear them both patterns and solid colors. I'm 5'2 and I wear them I just use high heals and wear it at the waist. You will look so cute plus it will make you look taller!!

You shouldn't worry about your height its really not what makes the clothes stand out its your self and as long as you wear it with pride who cares! I'm short and I wear em :)

I'm 5ft 2.5in tall and have a lot of long skirts. I wear them with heels or roll the top if they're too long. So comfortable and soft. A lot of the ones I own have a slit up both sides so they flow when you walk. Can't wait to see pics, ill bet they'll look hella cute on you.

Try it and see how you feel. Something might be what you need for some fun in your wardrobe.

Wear with wedges! And I think long dresses and skirts actually make ppl look taller. It hides legs, you can't detect how short they really are and they seem to elongate and slim down many short girls.

Of course they would ,I am 5ft 3in,I wear them and love it,just add some heels..But my trick is going to my tailor and having her alter it a bit and voila looks perfect...

Sure! am 5'2 and I wear maxi skirts and dresses all the time and not necessarily with heels, I like wearing them with flats for a more relaxed casual look and they look great :D!!

I was hesistant too as I'm 5'2 but I tried one and I love them. I wear wedges with mine tho. they look so much more flattering than I thought they would. I've got about 8 now!

If you keep it all in the same color it will elongate the body and as other ladies suggested wear high heels and you will be fine.

I have the same problem, I'm not sure if I should wear maxi skirts because I'm short 5'3"

I'm 5'2... And I wear maxi anything... Skirts, dresses.
As long as it is the right length and proportion... You are good to go.
I wear my maxi's with flats.

I'm pretty short (5'4") so I know it's hard to choose a maxi dress. Definitely wear it if you look good in it! Maybe wear a good pair of wedges so that it gives you that extra height. Maxi dresses tend to run super long so look into getting it hemmed :)

I love wearing thembut I can never find one that's NOT too long for me and I'm 5'5. I usually have tick it at the waist and wear a belt or pay to have it hemmed.

You guys are really short :0 I'm a dutchie, 6'7"
But yeah, a maxi skirt could look really nice, wear it with high heels/wedges so your legs look slightly longer

Definitely go for it!
Related question - where can you find maxi dresses in petite, preferably in Europe? They are always so long..

I'd definitely go for it... a block colour with a pattern trim at the bottom will make you look taller x
