I imagine they deal with that on a daily basis. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-regular-vs-tall#post-1242984 Tue, 06 May 2014 01:07:39 +0000 K. Period. 1242984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually buy BR dresses and coats in petites even though I'm 5'5". &nbsp;Like Diana said, they bring up the arm holes and the waist, which suits my short waist well. &nbsp;If you are longer waisted, a tall might be great for you. &nbsp;Fingers crossed!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-regular-vs-tall#post-1242714 Mon, 05 May 2014 20:07:22 +0000 NDMom 1242714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your replies, Angie and Diana! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-regular-vs-tall#post-1242708 Mon, 05 May 2014 20:03:23 +0000 Diana 1242708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The armholes and waist are placed higher on a petite, so I'd guess they are lower on a tall.&nbsp; But unless it's something like a sheath where everything has to be in exactly the right place there is usually some wiggle room. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-regular-vs-tall#post-1242699 Mon, 05 May 2014 19:57:37 +0000 Angie 1242699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Usually the fit of the dress. But I have a hunch it will work. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-regular-vs-tall#post-1242632 Mon, 05 May 2014 19:07:18 +0000 NDMom 1242632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Angie! &nbsp;I have my eye on a couple of BR dresses, but at 5'7" the 36" length would be too short for me. &nbsp;If I ordered a Tall (38") does that change the entire fit of the dress or just the length? &nbsp;Thanks for your help! &nbsp;Paula </p>
