However, this seemingly simple and simple way of collocation, in the hands of Shenzhen's fashionable elites, has a rich variety of ingenious interpretation space, which can not only show fashion taste, but also highlight personal unique charm.

For many small girls living in the south, the way of dressing "short at the top and long at the bottom" is undoubtedly a good way to "increase height". The cropped top can perfectly accentuate the waistline and elongate the upper body proportions; The bottoms are mainly long items, which modify the leg lines and elongate the proportion of the lower body, so as to achieve the effect of flattening the body proportions and making the overall figure appear tall and slender.
In addition to the consideration of height ratio, fashionable Shenzhen girls also care about the shape of their legs. Some girls who are born with thick legs often don't like to wear shorts or skirts because they expose the lines of their legs and look bulky and bulky. The "short at the top and long at the bottom" style of dressing just can well cover up the leg defects, the top exposes the delicate waistline, and the trousers or long skirt modify the leg shape, so that people do not feel the clumsiness of the limbs, but exude a fashionable and intellectual charming temperament.
Not only girls with larger hips or more developed leg muscles can cover up their body shortcomings with the help of "short at the top and long at the bottom", but even some models with small bee waists and long legs also like to try this way of matching. A short bandeau vest with high-waisted wide-leg pants or a slit long skirt can not only highlight the perfect body proportions, but also add a bit of sexy and feminine taste, which makes people can't take their eyes off it.
Secondary independent processing, wear your own fashion
Although "short at the top and long at the bottom" is a global fashion trend, it is difficult to see two identical looks on the streets of Shenzhen. Fashionistas here pursue personalisation and innovation, never stopping at simple imitation, but reprocessing basic styles to create unique fashion shapes.
For example, in the choice of tops, in addition to some basic short T, short sleeves, and small vest styles, Shenzhen fashionistas will also choose some items with a sense of design, such as short front and long back, irregular hem, drawstring design, see-through hollow, etc., to create a sense of personality and fashion through innovative design of basic styles.
Looking at bottoms, Shenzhen hipsters are not only pursuing ordinary trousers and long skirts, but also trendy items such as wide-legged pants, irregular hem skirts, and slit skirts have become their favorites. In addition to the fit, the material and pattern of the bottoms are also an important consideration in their selection, and the silk gauze skirt, lace cut-out skirt, fishnet pants and other items all show their bold and avant-garde fashion taste.
Even in terms of matching skills, they are also ingenious experts. A short sweatshirt with a camisole underneath creates a sense of layering; A cropped waist top covered with a knee-length kaftan shows a fashionable and neat look, etc., these exquisite combinations highlight the superb vision and keen sense of fashion trends of Shenzhen fashionistas.

Moreover, the short items are easy to move, neither strangled the stomach to create a bulge of flesh, nor will it be caused by excessive movement and walking light, which is very suitable for the rhythm of life in Shenzhen, a high-intensity working city.
Opt for lightweight, breathable trousers or a long skirt as bottoms, which can also bring comfort to people during the summer months. Loose-fitting wide-leg pants won't make a flesh mark, while a tulle or cotton and linen maxi skirt will give you a silky cool texture that you can walk without sweat and itching. In addition, most of these items are straight or wide-legged styles, which invisibly increases the space for movement, allowing the legs to stretch and swing freely without feeling tight.
In addition to the single product itself, in terms of the matching concept, Shenzhen fashionistas also implement the word "comfort". Basically, you will not choose the top and bottom as a tight style at the same time, but choose a tight and loose top and bottom respectively, so that you can have a comfortable wearing experience and will not completely give up the opportunity to show off your figure. There are also some fashionable hipsters who will coat a ventilated mid-length coat on the basis of "short at the top and long at the bottom", forming a "three-layer" match, which is quite brilliant in terms of visual effect and comfort.
