There is basic advice for men looking to look taller than they really are. First, make sure that you have a natural and good posture. Although it may seem that a good posture does not have a great impact on you height, you should know that it will make a great difference. Stand proud and sit with your back straight and you will not only look taller but also more sure of yourself. Second, you need to pay attention to your hair cut. Stylists advise shorter men to avoid long hair because it hides one’s neck and shoulders and it makes them look even shorter. And last but not least effective, stay fit all the time. This may require some hard work but results will amaze you. Aim to achieve some muscular mass and stay lean, but don’t go overboard with muscle bulk.

Our first advice is on clothes you should be looking for. Number one rule is avoid the baggy clothes style. Get clothes that fit and have a more tailoring effect on your body, emphasizing what is flattering on your frame. If you particularly looking to look taller, you should consider vertical stripes on your shirts. Not only vertical stripes but also chalk-stripe or herringbone patterns can improve your image by making you look thinner and taller. On the contrary, stay away from checkered shirts.
A more commonly known tip is wearing one color. Monochrome dressers can make themselves look taller by choosing darker shades and light fabrics. Black is perhaps the most sought after color because of the visual effect it gives to one’s body. Dark shades tend to slim and elongate one’s looks. Combine darker colors with fitted clothes and you are right on the money towards looking slimmer and taller.
