At Beautycon Los Angeles on August 11, 2019, Liza Koshy leaned into bold color and playful proportion, stepping out in a neon snake-print suit that balanced high-impact styling with an easy, streetwear edge.

Standing at 5 ft ¾ in (154.3 cm)—though the internet remains perpetually divided on whether she’s actually a few inches shorter—Liza Koshy has turned her petite stature into a styling playground.

By pairing a US shoe size 5 with strategic, sharp tailoring, she effectively hacks her proportions. At Beautycon, the mix of head-to-toe neon and a strictly defined silhouette created a singular, vertical line that makes her presence feel much larger than her debated height suggests.

Her choice of a neon snake-print blazer and matching ottoman pants from Pinko marked a bold departure from traditional red-carpet attire, leaning into the event’s vibrant, experimental energy.

To keep the tailored set from feeling overly formal, she layered it over MOTHER’s “The Little Goodie Goodie” graphic tee ($105).

The focal point of the look, however, was her choice of footwear: Ritch Erani’s St Tropez sandals.

How Liza Koshy Uses Heels to Lengthen Her Petite Frame

At 5 ft ¾ in (154.3 cm), Liza Koshy consistently leans into styling tricks that create the illusion of height without sacrificing personality. Her choice of clear PVC sandals here is especially effective—by reducing visual breaks across the foot, the design creates a longer, uninterrupted line from leg to toe.

Paired with slim-cut trousers and a bold, high-waisted silhouette, the result feels balanced, polished, and quietly strategic. It’s a reminder that for petite dressers, the right pair of heels isn’t just finishing a look—it’s shaping it.
