As a 5’3″ fashion writer, I’m all very familiar with the dangers of summer dress shopping. We either have to sacrifice to buy swallowing the outline of our frame or invest in tailors, but no longer! From acne that fits the waist to elongated necklines, there are so many petite dress hacks that can make the outline more bland in seconds.
This summer, my mission was to find 21 petite friendly dresses that just throw away to make my frame look taller and taller. Surprisingly, I was impressed by the budget-friendly draft picks of Walmart. Keep scrolling my favorites, starting at just $15.
