I think a key hack is having a tailor or knowing how to alter your own clothes. Those of us with thick thighs have to buy to fit that feature, sometimes meaning going up several sizes. In order for a wide leg (or any pant, really) pant to look attractive, the waist will need to be taken in. This should be mentioned as to not discourage people when a pair of slacks or skirt doesn't fit right off the rack.

Excellent video as always Chi, thank you! As a short woman (5’1) with thick thighs and legs I am going to take all of these tips to heart! My only suggestion for future videos is to use a woman with thicker legs to model the “do’s”. You’re awesome, thanks for all you do!!

I watched and read so much about how to dress for my body type, but your account gives really new advice that actually helps soooo much! I started opting for things that I never did before and have been getting so many compliment :D keep it up and thanks!

I am not petit by a long shot, but at 5'7" I still deal with having a long torso and thick legs. Your videos are so informative and helpful!

[brirose]

As someone with thick thighs, calves and ankles, this was very helpful! I’d love to see more videos on this topic, including more suggestions of better alternatives 💃🏼

Saw the title and immediately thought: THAT'S ME!!! I do all of these suggestions. I also tend to default to skin tone coloured shoes when my legs are exposed. My coloured shoes are generally for long pants, or colour matching hosiery (i.e. black shoes with black tights). My fave go to: a great navy dressy top, dark blue jeans and a raspberry coloured shoe. It lengthens the line of my body with a pop of colour. I am both muscular and thick. As you say, it is all about scale.

Chi, I love your videos! You’re brilliant and you always give practical tips…with visuals! Thank you!!!!

I love these videos. I’m 5’8 and the word Petite has never been used to describe me but I do have thicker legs and this video gave me great ideas.

I am not petite but have found your channel really helpful for anyone wanting to dress to flatter themselves. I would agree that fit and flare dresses and either a maxi or knee length dress is very flattering for those of us with thicker legs. I also tailor most of the pants I have because I am apple shaped but my hips are not as big as most designers expect so pants and shorts will fit in the stomach but fall off of my thinner hips. I have my tailor take in 2-3 inches in on the waist and they fit perfectly. Having clothes that fit your body well is a huge confidence booster.

Oh no!! After watching this video.. I just realized I need a closet revamp cause I violated some rules and she is right about everything!!

No wonder I look good in dresses because they are in A-line style..

But, I have no money 😭😭😭😭... Will just switch my clothes one by one

[Teverell]

I'm not petite but so much of your advice works for everyone. I've got larger thighs and don't like tight trousers, or shorts that are too short, for all the reasons you give.

[dellaellis]

Thanks, Chi! I am a short, pear shaped older gal with thick thighs and knees! I can't wear shorts at all, except to do housework or car washing!

[bibibrin]

I found out that the material such as lyocell, tencel or viscose are simply perfect to wear in warmer months- they're flowy and have a cooling effect.

[joannecava]

This is me! I am 4’11” and 110 lbs….with most of my weight in my legs….this video is so perfect for me! Thank

[sueblack]

I'm not petite and rather tall but love watching your videos. You deserve more subscribers.

[SandyCheeks]

Thanks Chi! You have perfect legs, but you took the time to advise those of us with thick legs. Thanks again!

[stephs]

I’m on the shorter side with big Latina hips and thighs. I’ve googled what looks good on me in the past but I forget, this videos captures all the great tips.

[j]

i feel like this only works for wanting to hide yourself more rather than accentuate or embrace.

[Leshenn]

The shorts are the hardest for me, especially since I have short legs that look cut off when I wear longer shorts, and I'm busty so I don't look great with high waisted pants either. I usually give up and just wear longer pants or dresses.

[Magpieme]

Super tips, Chi! As a thick thigh girl, I agree with every single one! Thanks for a great video. Mary in Florida. 🤗🌺
