The Misconception of Height in Fashion

“The biggest misconception about me is that I am tall. I’m actually 5-foot-3, ” the actress told US Weekly in an interview. Thus, she proved that a short woman can look great in a maxi dress.

Standing at 5 feet 3 inches (160 cm), Elsa Pataky is slightly shorter than the average height for women in Spain.

Elsa Pataky’s Style Essentials for the Petite Woman

Leave it to Pataky to make a slouchy grey cardigan and a graphic yellow maxi skirt look sexy.

It’s not a combination that would turn heads- it borders on the bag lady category. However, the Fast Five star made it look unique by pairing it with a V-neck top and slouchy brown boots.
