So you think you are tall? You are unique but you're not alone. Sadly three of the tallest women have died not too long ago. Did you know that De-Fen Yao was 7'9", that Sandy Allen was 7'7 1/4" and that Margo Dydek was 7'2"? Lindsay Kay Hayward is 6'8 1/4" and officially "The World's Tallest Actress". Then there are Basketball Superstar and Olympic Gold Medal Winner Candace Parker (6'4") and Olympic Silver Medal Winner and overall doll Kimberly Glass (6'2 1/2"). Did you know that Brigitte Nielsen is 6'1", that Geena Davis, Brooke Shields, Taylor Swift, Jordin Sparks and Ayla Brown are 6'0" each? They're celebrities? Well, yeah - but you don't have to be famous to be beautiful and life doesn't end at 5'7". Tall women are gorgeous and are great role-models for tall girls. A lot of women go to great lengths in order to stand out. You don't have to. You are outstanding as you are and you don't need a pedastal to stand on. My 6'7" friend Erika has some advice for tall girls. Meet 6'3" Jessica, the Tall Woman of the Month for January of 2014
plus 6'3" Jheri reviews the books "Short: Walking Tall When You're Not Tall At All"
and Tallwomen.org is on Pinterest, has a Facebook Page, a (secret) Facebook Group and a Google+ Page. Join us in The Forum. Here are offers exclusive to visitors to this website. Are you the owner of a company and would like to advertise? Here are the rates. |

It is cold
outside. Time to buy some suitable footwear in your size:
As you can see we are focusing on companies that cater to women with large feet. That's why we have the Shoes International and the Shoes USA sections. If you click a link and can't find footwear in at least US size 11 let me know. I will remove the link. For the best selection in shoes in large sizes check out Barefoot Tess, Samanta Shoes, DesignerShoes.com, Zappos.com or Shoemetro.com. Amazon.com also sell women's shoes in up to US size 16.
Looking for more choice in tall clothing? Visit these recommended stores:
If you are looking for clothing for tall ladies visit the Clothes International and the Clothes USA sections. There is plenty of choice out there these days. No comparison to the late 1990s when this website was still being developed. Companies like Long Tall Sally US, Long Elegant Legs, PZI Jeans, Buckle, Alloy, Torrid, Lucky Brand Jeans or New York & Company cater to tall women. Their pants have extra long inseams and their tops have extra long sleeves.
I have kept asking my tall lady friends what they were looking for first and foremost. The answers were "cute pants and shoes" and "help with my self-image". I like to think we have achieved a lot over the years. As a matter of fact I know we have because of your feedback. Without your contributions this website wouldn't be possible. So THANK YOU!
On this website you can also read quotes from tall women. You can answer the question "How tall were you when you were...?" or the Questionnaire (I love to know who visits this website). I have also collected stuff you shouldn't say to a tall woman (there are some good comebacks on there as well).
If you are looking to date a tall person there is Tallfriends.com. But, before you go there - read my dating advice for men!
