Meeting the Inseam Needs of Tall Women: Navigating 35" to 40" Lengths

The Best Clothing and Shoe Colors for Tall Women
When you think of tall women, you might picture famous figures like Taylor Swift, Karlie Kloss, or Venus Williams. But how common is it for women to be considered "tall"? And more importantly, where can they find clothing that fits their proportions? At Tall Jane, we specialize in stylish, well-fitting clothing for tall women, and we understand the unique challenges they face when shopping for jeans, shoes, dresses, and more.
How Tall Is "Tall" for Women?
The average height for women varies by country, but in the United States, it stands at approximately 5 feet 4 inches (162.5 cm). A woman is typically considered "tall" if she is 5 feet 8 inches (173 cm) or taller. Only about 5% of women in the U.S. fall into this height range, making it a niche yet significant group.
Globally, the Netherlands boasts the tallest women, with an average height of around 5 feet 7 inches (170 cm). Meanwhile, countries in South America and Asia have shorter average heights. Despite these variations, tall women everywhere face similar struggles when shopping for clothing designed with their proportions in mind.
The Challenges of Finding Clothes for Tall Women
Shopping for clothes as a tall woman can be frustrating. Standard clothing sizes often don’t account for longer limbs, higher natural waistlines, or larger feet. This leads to:
-
Too-short jeans and pants – Regular-length jeans can end awkwardly above the ankle instead of reaching the floor or sitting at the correct length for different styles.
-
Ill-fitting dresses and skirts – Many dresses that are designed to hit the knee or mid-calf on average-height women often appear too short on taller women.
-
Sleeves that miss the mark – Long-sleeve tops and jackets often fail to extend to the wrist, making them look awkwardly cropped.
-
Larger shoe sizes in limited availability – Many stores only carry women’s shoes up to size 10, making it challenging for those with size 11 or larger feet to find stylish and comfortable options.
