Short waisted dressing

[bubblicious3]

Any tips? I've realised recently that I'm incredibly short bodied - straps fall down and there's no room between my boobs and my bum! I do have long legs which I guess is some compensation. Im struggling with dressing especially as I've got a bit of a menopause muffin. The higher waisted jeans around at the moment look terrible on me, and hurt me when I sit down. Im better in dresses but have quite an outdoors lifestyle, so not v practical.
Any tips for looking better/feeling better?

You’d love Harkle dresses; they are super short waisted. Alas I am long waisted so I had to send mine back!

Never heard of Harkle - will check them out, thanks.

Is that Harkel? As they appear to have gone bust owing loads of money. Clearly didn't market themselves to the short waisted people effectively 🤣

I'm short waisted too. I find cropped jumpers, cardis and jackets work well. Not super cropped. But hitting the true waistline rather than the hips.
I think scoop necks can highlight short waist. Polo necks in the winter are good.

I am the same body shape. For comfort I prefer trousers with elasticated waist, dungarees, or leggings with tunic tops (A line are more flattering). For work I wear a lot of dresses, eg the boden Amelie dress is a great fit. Tops from the petite range fit me best, otherwise they tend to expose too much cleavage.

I'm short waisted so following carefully.
I find warehouse, Karen Millen, Hobbs good but can very easily be frumpy if not careful. Empire lines and single buttoned jackets work well too.

Jumpsuits work well too

I agree although sometimes the waist is in the wrong place, ie too low down so it sits on my hips making me look fat(ter) and the top part is too baggy.
