Best Dresses for Short Women

Being 5'2", I've struggled for years how to find flattering dresses for my height.

You might think dresses should be easy to shop as a short girl, right? Because... Well, unlike jeans or pants, we don't ever need to hem them.

But I have come to the realization that when you are short, NOT all the dresses will look good on you! For example, this one.

[{"selector":"#anim-8b3b54a4-ba41-4da7-be5e-943c6961ee5a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

What really matters is the TYPE of dresses you choose and how you style them.

Another example, this doesn't work either. Because the dress has no waist definition, it can only make you look bulky, and even SHORTER!

[{"selector":"#anim-701fae3d-c88e-4e4e-b6a1-a4a5cfbcabaf","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5195a0c7-f88a-4849-8fa7-f7c619a203e0","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -116.53821%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

I have figured all these tried and true tips every short girl must know!
