The kameez should be a little longer in height. It makes you look taller. If your height is around 5 feet 3 inches then your kameez height should be around 47- 48 inches.

If you have broad shoulders then avoid wearing puffed sleeves.

If you have fat arms and therefore cannot wear sleeveless then go in for sleeves of about 5 inches length. This will hide the flab on your arms and your hands will look thinner.

Wear a shalwar around your naval area, as it will pull in your stomach.
