It's easy for me to forget that a tall lady can have just as many problems finding clothes to fit as us vertically challenged 'shorties'.
Not only must she take into account her generic Body Type but finding garments that can accommodate a long torso with extra length in the sleeves and trouser legs can be a nightmare.
There are many tall ladies that exude confidence but others feel less than feminine when they find themselves towering over their contemporaries.
Many of the highest paid models in the world, athletes, actors and our own Duchess of Cambridge stand at least 5ft 10ins tall.
