Tall clothing and women's fashion for tall women
You know the drill: pant legs that are just a bit too short, sleeves that stop halfway down your forearm, dresses that hit your knee instead of a bit lower.
At LongLady, you'll find tall clothing for women in various styles, sizes, and length sizes. The collection consists of everyday basics, business women's fashion, festive clothing, and current seasonal items.
Which specific parts have been adjusted varies by brand and product. Some garments have been developed entirely as tall models, while other items mainly have extra length. Therefore, always check the dimensions, material composition, and size advice on the product page.
What is clothing for tall women?
Not just a bigger size with some extra fabric. Clothing for tall women is designed or selected for a longer physique, and that can be in multiple places:
✔️ longer pant legs;
✔️ longer sleeves;
✔️ extra length in the torso;
✔️ an adjusted knee position;
✔️ a different waist height;
✔️ a longer crotch depth;
✔️ pockets and darts that are in the right place, not halfway down your hip.
From approximately 1.78 meters (5'10"), tall clothing usually becomes relevant, but your height alone doesn't tell the whole story. Your inseam, arm length, and torso length determine just as much whether something truly fits well.

Fashion for tall women in different styles
Tall women's fashion doesn't have to be limited to simple basics. For a business look, combine trousers with a blouse and blazer. Tall jeans with a shirt, cardigan, or jacket work for casual days. And for something festive, choose a dress, jumpsuit, or pant suit with proportions that are correct instead of pinching or flapping somewhere.
Your body length does not determine which trends you can or cannot wear. The correct sizing and placement of details do that job.
Length sizes for pants and jeans
As a guideline:
- L34 is approximately 86 cm (34 inches) inseam;
- L36 is approximately 91 cm (36 inches);
- L38 is approximately 96.5 cm (38 inches).
This may vary slightly per brand, model, and clothing size. If in doubt, measure a pair of pants that already fit well from the crotch to the hem. And compare with the size chart provided with the item.
Tall clothing or extra long clothing?
These terms are often used interchangeably, but there is a difference. "Extra long" primarily refers to additional length, such as longer pant legs or sleeves. With a garment fully designed as a "tall" model, other proportions are often also adjusted, such as the waist, knee, and hip positions.
Not every brand uses the same sizing, so always check per garment which adjustments and dimensions actually apply.
