Lil Wayne: Keepin' It Lil

How do you pull off ultra-baggy hip-hop steez if you're a short man?

If you're Lil Wayne [5'6"] you pair baggy, low-slung jeans with comparatively form-fitting shirts. So while the pants shorten his legs, he's also lengthening his torso. He also favors simple T-shirts and tanks (or no shirt at all), which further reinforce the lengthening effect, and draw attention to his slim, athletic physique.

You've got to give it to the guy. While Lil Bow Wow and Lil Romeo dropped the diminutive descriptors in their names, Wayne maintains. Props for keepin' it Lil.
