Ideal measurements for tall girls? (5'10 and above)?

I've always heard the "ideal measurements" for a girl are 35-25-35 (Bust-Waist-Hips)

But I have a hard time seeing how that could apply to a girl as tall as me (just under 5'11).

My measurements are about 34-30-39 (I tend to gain ALL my weight around my hips/waist/butt and absolutely none anywhere else (if you looked at just my upper body you'd think I was really fit). 

I think ideally I'd want to be around 34-27-34.

Any other tall girls here? What's your opinion? And what are your measurements? Input from non-tall people welcome too :)

Im right there with you Nigara :)

I am 5'9, still 2 inches shorter than you and I know that I would look VERY tiny if I had a 25' waist. In fact about 2 years ago I was at that and I was very ill. I now have a 30' waist. I am aiming for 27-28' waist. There is NO way I will ever be a 25' waist again. I think that naturally, taller girls have more weight on them and it would look funny if we were really tall and tiny.

There are no ideal measurements for women. We did not come out of a factory - we are meant to be all different shapes and sizes!

my measurements are about 30-24-35 and I'm 5'2... the only way I would ever be "perfect" is if I were to get breast implants!! HAH yeah right!! Since I'm short my hips look big on me (at least I think so) and my waist doesn't look that small, and my chest is pretty flat... I am no where near perfect, but I have yet to hear someone disaprove of my shape; in fact my boyfriend LOVES IT

face it. we all come in different shapes and sizes, there is no "one size fits all"; nor is there an "ideal measurement"

according to whom are these the "ideal measurements"? Hugh Hefner?

an approximately 10 inch difference between waist vs. hips/breasts is the standard to be pin-up girl "curvy" or have an "hourglass" shape

but honestly I wouldn't be too concerned, it's very rare that someone will come up with a tape measure and size you up to make sure you're "good enough"... stick to a healthy diet, excersize regime and lifestyle, and be happy being you.

measurements are more for vanity purposed then anything, and for sizing clothing... the best purpose they serve is to show changes in body composition/weight loss/fat loss... sometimes weight/fat loss won't show up on the scale but you'll lose inches

I am also tall like you (5'10") and have never really given my measurements any thought.  It is all about being comfortable with yourself and eating healthy.  The thing to remember is that no one else will know what your measurements are unless you share them with them.  I know how you feel about all the extra weight being concentrated below the waist!  My arms are downright skinny while my rear end just about needs it's own zip code!  Not really, but I do gain pretty much all of my weight on my hips and rear end.  So, just remember you are not the only one and others like you are here to support you.  :)

Where about do you take as your 'waist' measurement? to keep an eye on my progress I usually measure 3, just under my ribs, then again around my navel, and then again the widest part of my belly, but I always wonder is the waist the smallest of the 3 as in just under your rib cage?

Am I the tallest here at just a little over 5ft 11"? 

My vitals are 34-26-35.  No way could I get a 24 waist unless I starved myself.  And no bloody way I am doing that!

Im 5'10" and my measurements are (35)-(25)-(32 1/2) (bust-waist-hips)

Im told im thin but i dont feel like it :/ I would think the perfect measurements would be a chest a bit bigger than mine, a waist around mine, and hips a bit bigger than mine. Even though my hips feel Really big to me when you measure them they are kind of small :/

I'm 5'10" and my measurements are 35-26-37.  I have been thinner as well, where my hips are closer to my bust measurement and my waist is slightly smaller.  However, I have a very small frame which might be the difference between me and you.

Just remember:  women aren't cookie cutters.  We are all shapes and sizes, and we are all beautiful in our own way.  There is no "ideal shape" that is applicable to every woman.  Your job is to be the best you that you can be, and that is all.  Don't worry about what other people say :)
