The Big List of Women's
Tall Clothing Basics

There are basic things that every tall woman needs in her tall clothing wardrobe.  If you invest in quality pieces, you can wear these items for years to come and they won't need to be changed with the passing trends. The following list will help tall woman put together a basic tall wardrobe for every occasion.

1. Great Pair of Every day Jeans - Every tall woman needs a pair of jeans that is figure flattering and long enough to wear with casual shoes or a slight heel.  A slight low-cut jean in a boot cut is what I recommend.  Also the darker the jean, the more slimming.

2. Dress up Trouser Jeans - These are to be worn for special occasions when you want to look extra hot. These will generally bit a bit more expensive than your regular jeans and you will consider them to be for special occasions. These should definitely be darker and look best in a wide leg or straight leg. Trouser jeans should have a polished look to them, including no rips or wear marks. Trouser jeans can have a great cuff, can have pockets or be pocket less and if you like have fun details such as leather logos or flap pocket, depending on your taste. These jeans should be considered great for casual office days as well as for a date night.

3. Tall Tailored Pant Suit in a Dark Color - You are best to choose a dark color and I recommend black as it is easier to match blacks than most other colors. The color black is a classic and will stand the test of time.  Choose a suit out of a fabric that is smooth and easily maintains it's shape.  It should look good no matter the season. This suit should be easily worn to work or dinner parties.  A great place to get one is from Lands' End. Their suit pants are custom hemmed to your inseam length and you can add a skirt to match now or later as your budget allows.  Also, over the years, if you wear out a piece or you can easily replace a piece as the fabric choices seem to remain consistent. 

4. Black Tall Trousers- are a must have item for tall women.  These will be your go to pants for every occasion.  They can easily be dressed up or down.  They should be wrinkle-free and made from a nice fabric.  I recommend a boot-cut pant or a straight leg tall trouser.  The rise on these tall trousers should fit slightly below the waist. 

5. Khaki Pants -  Tall Khaki pants are a necessity for every tall woman. They can be worn in casual offices and are great for traveling, or every day wear.  Khaki pants help you maintain a polished look without over doing it.
