Culottes are quite easy to match whether you have a tall or short, skinny or plump body.
In addition to being over-the-knee length, wide-leg pants are also modified with heel-covering length, helping the wearer gain more height, while also helping to partially cover the shortcomings of not-so-slim legs.
1. Wear culottes with a matching shirt
Combining wide-leg pants with the same color as the shirt will bring a smart and elegant look to the wearer.
