Let Height Arise

That’s a name we can get excited about! Any time we come across a small business tall retailer, we just can’t wait to share them with you. We first connected with Let Height Arise on Instagram, and saw a bunch of amazing options we were interested in. You can imagine our elation, when Shane (the founder) reached out to us about collaborating! Say no more. We connected via a phone call, and chatted about her goals and dreams for Let Height Arise. There is nothing more exciting that finding someone with an amazing dream, especially one that speaks to your spirit.

Our dream, which we’re sure is true of most tall women; is to have well fitting clothing that we can feel good and be on trend in. Some retailers have made some moves towards helping that happen, but we still haven’t had as much luck as we have with tall only retailers. They understand how real the struggle is, and they aren’t trying to fit us into the “average” size mold with a couple of extra inches on the end.

It never works to just add inches, when everything else needs to be proportioned accordingly. A lot of tall women have broader shoulders, our length of our thighs are different, as well as our top of our shoulder to chest length measuring longer. Sounds like a recipe for disaster when you just throw a couple of inches on the end then, right?!

Let Height Arise doesn’t stand for that nonsense, and we are so appreciative of that. Shane is fighting for us to have well-fitting clothing. Any time we meet a tall small business owner, we’re so grateful that they’ve made their life’s work, improving our own quality of life. Most people don’t have to worry about being able to walk into a store and find something ready to wear.

I’m sure you’ve all experienced the inner monologue while browsing in-store. Well that might be long enough. There is no way that will fit. Maybe I’ll just try this one on and see how it goes. Flash forward to the dressing room, where you’re stuck halfway in/out an item of clothing, cursing everything and everyone. It’s too relatable for us!

Back to Let Height Arise to the rescue. Shane, being a tall woman herself, helps us all avoid this struggle. When she offered to send us some clothing to try and share, we were ecstatic. She’s got a great selection to start with, and she’s only growing from here. She founded her business back in 2016 and has been grinding away ever since. In researching her company, we loved finding out the name was based on a Christian song. God blessed us with this glorious height, and it’s up to us to give Him the glory and use it for His good.

As tall women we have to call upon different kinds of strength to work through various difficulties we face compared to the average woman. We need courage, self-acceptance, confidence, love (to be gracious to others even when they aren’t gracious to us), and boldness to stand up for ourselves and our truth. Shane sums this up so beautifully with the name of her company. We can all use a reminder of that!

So this dress definitely sums up how to feel like a million bucks as a tall woman. The wrap style is incredibly flattering. It covers enough to not feel overexposed. I could easily wear this to church layered with a jean jacket or a cardigan. I did throw one on to show an example!  It also will be the perfect dress to wear to a bridal or baby shower all Spring and Summer. It is lightweight and super comfortable. I love the high-low design and the length is perfectly covered in the front and great in the back as well. Plus the back has more visual interest with the keyhole design that still allows you to easily wear a strapless bra. The floral design is so beautiful, and all the colors make it so easy to pair a plethora of layering or shoe options with the dress.

We also wanted to show you this dress on Caitlin so you can compare the length and fit. She is 4 inches shorter and much bustier so originally she was worried she would never be able to make this one work for fear of it being too revealing for comfort. Much to both of our surprise, it is perfectly modest. It fits both of us with comfort and ease in the body and length!
