I was watching an episode of America's Next Top Model and they were talking about body shapes and which types of clothes are best for that body shape. I think they described by body type as 'long torso'. I'm pretty tall for my age - 5 foot 5 - but I have pretty short legs.
In fact, my legs are the same height as most people are who shorter than me. When I describe it, it sounds weird, right...?
It's called your vertical body shape.....
