[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Coco Chanel once said “Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions”. Proportion is the framework with which we build our outfits, consciously or not. And the relative proportion of color or design elements can make or break a look. The most important factor about petite styling is center around how to create the best proportion.
