She has grown. She's taller than Kristen. Around 5'5 i'd say.
Michael says on 14/Mar/10
I agree with G here Rob, look at the pic she look taller. She grows :P
I say she is around 165 cm now days. g says on 12/Mar/10
i think she's taller than that. she looked taller than kristen stewart on The Runaways premiere.
Click Here ENGM says on 10/Mar/10
yeah rob, saw some recent pics, she can be 163 cm or 165 probably. rafa says on 9/Mar/10
haha she has surpassed 5'2" probably by a couple of inches now. You'll have to upgrade soon Rob! Alex says on 23/Feb/10
Hey man, Dakota is 16 and she is 5'2 I don't care all I know is that she is hot. SomeDude says on 20/Feb/10
I don't know for sure but Dakota seems like she has grown. As you can see in the picture that runt posted. And also, if you look for recent pictures, you'll see that she's usually taller than Kristen. Could it be the footwear? I'm not sure, but she looks tall these days. I might be pushing it but she looks like she 5'6" now. . .LOL, let's see how many insulting replies I'll get now that I said that. Stephanie says on 13/Feb/10
The ad for a photo double for Dakota from last June said 5' 3.5". Why would they want a photo double that's 1.5" taller than the actress? The point of the double is so that they can see what the shot would look like even when the actor or actress isn't there (especially for minors like Dakota, who have a limit to the number of hours they can work), so they want someone with the exact measurements/body type as the actor. I think Dakota is at least 5' 3.5" (if she didn't grow at all since last June).

This is very recent because it's for the Runaways. It's from DirectCast. Norah says on 7/Feb/10
Dakota has grown a lot since she has been in her teens. I always used to think she would stay thin and petitie, but I think she has had quite a few growth spurts. I am guessing, if Kristen is said to be reallt 5'4/5'5, Dakota may be around 5'3. From the pics, I can assume she is near Kristen, if not her height. She is not that small, tiny Dakota anymore...she's a young lady... :D thick says on 5/Feb/10
I love the people arguing about a 1/2" as if you can tell the difference. Keillie says on 27/Jan/10
Dakota can't be taller than 5'3". Judging with the photo taken with Kristen Stewart where Dakota is wearing at least 2.5-inch heels and Kristen in snickers, Dakota is not much taller. Now, Kristen has to be 5'4" to 5'5", so we can assume that Dakota is 5'2", 5'3.5" max. Stephanie says on 24/Jan/10
Dakota's body double request/listing from June 2009 said 5' 3.5".
And if Kristen is 5' 4" it looks like Dakota is 5' 4.5" or 5' 5" now (January 2010). Kristen is slouching and has big hair, but I think Dakota is just a little taller now. Click Here Thick says on 13/Jan/10
I agree, she looks 5'3. My guesstimate for weight is 107 lbs Anonymous says on 12/Jan/10
dakota's height is about 160 cm me says on 12/Jan/10
does anyone know how much dakota weighs?? can you please give me a website too.
i've been trying to find out. also dakota is about 160cm Kim says on 9/Jan/10
She'll probably be no taller than 5'3. I was 5'0 at 10 years old, 5'3 at 11, and i'm almost 14, and 5'5. I haven't grown since summer '09. Dakota is 2 years older than i am, so she'll probably grow less. Shamomo says on 8/Jan/10

with Kristen Stewart. If she took off those shoes, they'd be almost the same height. 5'4-5'5 for now (I agree with Alice - she's only 15. she'll probably grow to 5'6 soon)
taking away the heels, she's probably 1-3 inches shorter than Kristen. Melissa says on 4/Jan/10
I agree if that is what her casting call says then I'd go for that and say she was at least 5'3.5' if not now 5 feet 4 inches. If she grows any further I don't see her getting taller than 5'5 Stephanie says on 4/Jan/10
A casting call dated June 2009 (for a double) said Dakota was 5' 3.5". She also looks around the same height as Kristen Stewart, who is 5' 4" or just under 5' 4". Dakota has a small frame and recently grew a little, which is why some people think she's shorter. Stephanie says on 2/Jan/10
Yeah that's because this answer is from when she was 12. Now she is near 16. Neo says on 28/Dec/09
she looked taller in New Moon. maggie says on 26/Dec/09
you can never tell how tall a person is but for now dakota fanning is 5'2''.
i think she will get to 5'3'' and stop growing.
i am 5'1'' 1/2 Moke says on 22/Nov/09
You can never predict somebody`s height. Most of the women I knew didn`t went on growing at the age of 15-16. In some cases maybe 1-2 cm but not more. mandy says on 21/Nov/09

she must be taller now,yeah?? In NEW MOON she was like 2 inches taller than kristen stewart who is 5'4 Katie says on 12/Nov/09
I saw her with a picture with Camille Belle, and Camille is about 5 ft 7.75 tall... And Dakota was about 0.492 (15 cm) smaller than Camille... So I think it is right that Dakota is 5'2 feet tall... Alice says on 8/Nov/09
nah dakota's like 5'5 cuz on a photo with kristen she was around the same height so like 5'4 to 5'5 max but she'll grow to maybe 5'6 :P btw i'm 13 and 5'6 8D Nat says on 31/Oct/09
Dakota isn't a vegetarian.
I am though and I think it helps. Before being vegetarian I was 43kg now I am 41kg. :P Not much difference, but still a little. dilara says on 22/Sep/09
why are all the movie stars who are vegetarian so skinny though i have been vegetarian since i was 11 and now i wm 113 pounds at 12? am i fat Lilly says on 8/Sep/09
When do girls stop growing? Can you still grow after you're 18? Elle says on 31/Aug/09
I think Dakota's about 5"4 maybe now. She's starting to look taller in the photos I've seen her in lately, though she does wear large heels alot.
I'm her age and I'm still 5" lol, I hope I grow a bit more :P Olivia says on 10/Aug/09
Heidi:
you meant to say 5'9 instead of 6'9, right? Heidi says on 4/Aug/09
Little K. I don't think you should be miserable about your height. I think it is nice being a bit short, then you an just put some high heels on and become higher. I am also 15, but I am 6'9, so I kind of have the opposite problem. But tall people can't become shorter, and if I'm wearing heals, I become very tall :( To Little K. says on 31/Jul/09
You're 15.
I'm pretty sure you'll grow at least an inch more.
15 is young to stop growing, and even if you are for some reason, 5'2 isn't short. It's petite and I see women that height all the time.
:) Little K. says on 22/Jul/09
Hello everyone I wanted to ask something:
I am 15 and I am 5'2 just like Dakota and my sis is pretty tall for her age (or I am short) and she is 5'
Do you think I will grow more ? Means I just want to be a 5'4-5 not a model height LOL
And why should I do to grow even a little more ?
I heard girls stop growing after 18 so I am still hopeful
Thanks for your replies in advance
And I def think that Dakota is 5'2-3 Anonymous says on 16/Jul/09
she looks like she's 5'0 in push Anonymous says on 21/Jun/09
5'5"? No way! Dakota does look under 5'4" and even if she is, she has to be 5'4" max. Some people on the Kristen Stewart height page are consistently claiming that Dakota's 5'3". Anyone who's actually seen her? Pictures can be confusing, so I guess we need some real evidence. hihi says on 18/Jun/09
xc is probably right. I saw that casting call the other day too and I believe Dakota is no taller than 5'4''. Sarah says on 17/Jun/09
Her official height is 5'5", but I doubt that. Dakota looks under 5'4". 5'3" sounds plausible now, thanks to xc. lee says on 17/Jun/09
she's 5'2 and constantly wears heels on set of twilight. she may say that she's an inch or so taller than this, or whatever, but anyone can do that. i seriously doubt she's any taller than this. Film Buff Pediatrician says on 17/Jun/09
For girls in industrialized nations, most of them will reach their full height between the ages of 12-14. Continuing to grow past 18 is an exception, not the rule. If you factor in the diet regimen of female celebrities (especially those who have been in show business since childhood) who are under pressure to be very thin, this creates a chance of impacting their full height potential. For example: I had a female patient whose father was 6'4 and mother was 5'10-- but because of her extreme dieting, by the time she was 18 she reached her full height of 5'8. It's in her genes to be tall, but she didn't reach her full potential of at least 5'10. There's a lot of wishful thinking on this site. xc says on 15/Jun/09

I don't believe it!Dakota Fanning is as taller as me that is 5'3[160cm].I thought she could be around 5'4 but it is okay.At least,we're both are of the same age
and the same height.But,I hope I can grow taller soon likes 5'5-5'6 range.My father was like 5'5 1/2[166cm],I think.I am almost at the same height of my father although my father is a little bit short while my mother is only 5'1 1/2[156cm].I cannot believe it that I am taller than my mom.I am still hoping that I can grow taller than this.But being the height of this is just okay and it is not that short.My friends who are the same age as me are just height around 150-157cm.That is short right?no matter how tall you are...you should appreciate yourself.... blabla says on 9/Jun/09
I'd also say 5'1 ! a lot of people are as tall as here. For example Rachel Bilson or Lady Gaga blob says on 8/Jun/09
In the picture with the twilight cast, she has those huge heels on. If Kristen is 5'4, who looks tiiiiiny at the mtv movie awards, dakota is probably barely 5'1. She looks tiny still with heels on, and Kristen probably has on Converse, which are flat. If shes Kristen's 5'4 with those heels, Id say around 5'1. Richelia says on 5/Jun/09
hey,,she may wear high heels when she took fotos with Kristen.. A... says on 3/Jun/09
Have you seen Push? She looks TINY. I doubt she's taller than 5'2. tammi says on 26/May/09
She's probably about 5'3". Here is a link to some pictures of her, Kristen, and Ashley Greene. Ashley is listed at 5'43/4" and Kristen at 5'4" (even though she looks the same height as Ashley) and you can tell Dakota is a little shorter than them...I would say Dakota is between 5'3" and 5'4"....

wow,she's definetly growing up. she seems to be 5'3,i'm jealous..i'm precisely her age and still 5'2 and still flat.i dont even need to wear a bra. alice says on 25/May/09
I think she's well over 5ft2 now. Dakota looks tall in those pictures po Sarah says on 24/May/09
Anonymous2, we don't know the kind of footwears Fanning and Stewart are wearing in that picture. Fanning might be wearing heels, whereas Stewart might not. tammi says on 19/May/09
And that picture was taken the same night that Kstew and Pattinson were caught in the limo playing footsies together so we know that Kstew had flats on... Click Here (That's a pic of Kstew and Pattinson from that night and Kstew shoes are flat). tammi says on 19/May/09
Here's a link to some pictures of the heels that Dakota was wearing in that pic with Kristen Stewart.... Click Here (You may have to scroll down a little) and you I know these are the shoes because here are pics of her with Rachel Lefevre from earlier that day before they went to the afterparty...you can see she has the same clothes from the picture with Kstew and is wearing the shoes from the link above... Click Here (Again you may have to scroll down and click on one of the thumbnails)...the shoes Dakota has on has to be giving her a good 21/2 to 3 inches. jessica says on 19/May/09
What is she, 15 now? She might still be growing. Most girls continue to grow til they're 18, and with some late bloomers, maybe even 21 or 22 (shocking, I know), whereas guys may stop at 25. I honestly think she may grow to 5' 4 - 5' 5" range. Her mother is about 5' 5", but don't know what her dad's height is. Anonymous2 says on 15/May/09

how tall is she now?
like 5'4?
this needs updating.. Lina says on 4/May/09
She does look 5'2". 5'4" might be a wild guess. Anyone who's acutally seen her? Curtis C. says on 24/Apr/09
I think it's true that Dakota will grow taller because of her recent appearance showing she's a teen, she might grow 3 to 4 inches taller. Even though she's 5'2," I don't picture her still being at that height when she gets older. Rachel says on 19/Apr/09
No. Elle Fanning is the same height as her sister (view JustJared). Dakota may grow up to be tall because both her parents are really tall. My parents are 5'2 and 5'8 and I'm 5'8. Plus, I was 10 when I got my period and I was only 5'1 AC says on 13/Apr/09
Definitely under 5'4" Look at her with Chris Evans (6') Click Here Stephanie says on 9/Apr/09
I knew a few girls who grew in high school, so it's rare but not impossible. I grew 3" to 4" since I was 15, so you never know. allyu says on 3/Apr/09
Elle is going to be the tall one. Dakota won't grow any more than 5 foot 3. joe says on 18/Mar/09
She'll tap out at about 5'4 or 5'5. She'll grow 3 inches max. After age 15 girls don't have the major growth spurt that boys do. She's pretty much done growing. Growing vertically that is. ;) Stephanie says on 3/Mar/09
Dakota's parents are both around 5' 9". So her dad is on the low side of average and her mom is tallish for a woman.
She's 15 now so she may or may not grow. We'll have to wait and see. ;) Becky says on 18/Feb/09
I'm pretty sure in denial that Dakota won't be growing as tall as me!She's like 5'2 or 5'3 short for a girl i think i was the same height as her when i was her age and then i grew to be my height(5'5) and my mom's short and my dad's pretty tall so i guess her parents are medium height for sure Mercedes Banderas says on 16/Feb/09
She's 5"2. Well that doesn't seem tall to me I guess cause I'm 5"6 but I'm also 19 yrs old. Idk I think I was about her height when I was her age... Simone says on 12/Feb/09
I just finished watching Push & I cannot believe how tall she is. I just kept saying wow she's really tall. I'd say she's about 5'2-5'4 & that's pretty tall considering she's only 14. I'm 18 & I'm only 5"3 =) Jamie says on 9/Feb/09
Well, to be exact, I was more like 152 cm when I was 10, but that was about when I got my period. Now I'm 13 years old and 163 cm (5'4"). I think I'll just be an inch or two taller, since I got my growth spurt so early... plus my parents are both quite average. Natalie says on 7/Feb/09
I'd say she's 5'3, perhaps 5'4. Remember her parents are quite tall, so I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up growing to be like 5'8. Anonymous says on 6/Feb/09
Actualy "Gavin" I was only 140cm when i was 14, then I started growing like crazy, I thought I was done growing, but now I'm 18, and until last year i was still growing, I am now 163 cm.. which is 5'4 i think :)
So, I dont think Dakota is done growing, she still has time, and i think she will be taller than the estimated 5'2 for sure Jamie says on 1/Feb/09
When I was 10, I was 5' tall. I just turned 13 and I'm 5'4". My mom is 5'6" but my dad is 5'8", so I don't think I'll grow too much anymore.. I'm sorta tall for my age, I guess...
I'm not sure about Dakota Fanning. I'll say 5'2"-5'3", about. cassie says on 31/Jan/09
5'6- 5'8 is average for females in the US?!
No... it's 5'4 - 5'5. Angie says on 30/Jan/09
Gavin, she is definitely not in the 5'6''-5'8'' range.
Here she is with Camilla Belle who is 5'8'' and towering over her.

she is probably 5'3'' - 5'4'' Gavin says on 29/Jan/09
She was almost as tall as Leno, but she was wearing heels. Leno was only an inch or two taller than her and he is 5'11", so assuming approximatly 2" heels, Fanning has to be around 5'6"-5'8" which is about average height for a female. She'll be 15 in Feb'09 so she's probably done growing by now. push says on 27/Jan/09
i think she's around 5'2-5'3 from the look of it in pictures.
i don't think she's past 5'4.
you have to remember that she's wearing heels alot and she's super-skinny and people who are really thin tend to look taller.

how old are you ? maybe you might still grow more :]
my gym teacher once told me that her height is still the same height as when she was 8. and last year, she told us she grew a inch and now she's 5'2.

i think she's taller than 5'2 now. cause i'm same age as her which is 14, and in 2005, she was 11 with a height of 5', and when i was 11, i was 4'11. and now, i'm about 5'3 so she has to be ATLEAST my height or taller since her parents are pretty tall. cause if she's really 5'2 right now, that means she only grew like 2 inches in 3 years. that's really a small amount. so i say she's about 5'4 or 164 cm, now.

Its okay she's short, if you live in hawaii, like me, its alright to ne short. There's alot of short ppl here cuz their Asian like me. I'm only 5'0" and 15 yrs old and I have a neice 11 years old and she's 5'4". I don't feel bad cuz I had alot of tall boyfriends. So screw all of you who's all like "omg, she's so short and she's 14!"

I am a model (her age) so I live in CA and have met her. My 10 year old sister is 4'9 and she is about her height. She is def not even 5' yet. I'd say she is 4'9-4'10.5. So the listed height is correct. I'd give her a year, maybe she will grow? She will definatly not be a tall woman since she is already 14 and not yet 5', however she may reach 5'2 by the time she is fully grown. Rach says on 29/Apr/08

I think Hannah Dakota Fanning is no more then 5'0". I mean Elle (Dakota's sister) is 8 and Dakota is 13 and Dakota is prob. 8" taller then Elle, an 8 year old. Stephanie says on 28/Jul/07
Dakota is 5' 0" or 5' 1" tall. She is 13 years old now, almost 13 1/2, and is no longer 4' 10". Look at her (left) next to Kate Hudson, who is in the 5' 6"-5' 7" range: Click Here
This photo was posted on July 27th, and if I'm not mistaken, Kate's posture is sightly better than Dakota's... Stephanie says on 28/Jul/07

Dakota is definitely not 5'0" yet, let alone 5'2". That picture next to Virginia Madsen (who is no more than 5'5") proves it. It's definitely more than 3 inches!
I'll give Dakota 4'10" at most. anon says on 26/Jul/07
she is def not 5'2! maybe 4'9-4'10 actually but she has gotten tall

She is getting a LOT taller now, at least 5'2. see new pictures of her, she's in a growth spurt. Nicole says on 6/Jul/07
dakota is 5'2 now. Missy says on 30/Jun/07
I don't know how tall she is...But I am 14 and Im only 4'11"...I know im short...but so are my parents.but i think she is around 4'10.5".thats my guess. Lindsay says on 6/Jun/07

No matter the case, I think we can all agree that Dakota's page needs to be updated lol
In the most recent pics, she looks to have grown a little, between April and now. Considering the pic of her standing next to Salma Hayek '5''2 ( in heels that seem to give her a good, extra 3 inches); if she were to stand barefoot next to Dakota (without her small quarter-inch heel), there'd only be a quarter inch between them, making Dakota 5ft 1.75in. So let's just round-up and say '5''2!
Aghh! Hard to tell with all the leaning in, different heel sizes, and guess-timating on images alone... kelly says on 1/Jun/07
i think dakotas probaly 5ft2inches because there is a picture of her and this famous guy with curly hair at the kids choice awards and he's 6ft4 so she has to be just below his shoulders if she was next to someone whos 6ft 2 but then the man will have heeled shoes for men that will put inches on him making him 6ft 6 that means she would be above his elbow. Mike says on 30/May/07
She is close to 5 ft now xD says on 19/May/07
wtf, 5'9", thats not freaking short. my class' average height is 5'6 or so, yeah there are the 6 foot guys but most of us are like 5'3 - 5'7. and we're all dudes. and our girlfriends are 5'2-5'4 >.> Stephanie says on 13/May/07
Dakota's gotta be about 5' 0" now. I'd say 4ft 11.5in (151 cm).

Elle is around 4' 7". Her stunt double gave this as her height in late 2006/early 2007, and now (May 2007) they're asking for someone who's blonde and under 4' 10" to be a stand-in for Elle.
Looking at the pictures, yes, Dakota has heels but she is also always slouching. And her heels are smaller than the heels of other teen actresses, such as Emma Roberts, 16, and Jamie Lynn Spears, 16. So slouching + smaller heels = not as small as she looks. Lindsay says on 29/Apr/07
She looks to be around 4'11.75'' judging on the pics from the Kids Choice Awards pics where she's standing next to Jamie Lynn Spears (judging on if Spears wasn't slightly hunched over, and they both had their heels off). She looks a few inches taller when she's not standing next to anyone to compare the difference in height, though. Stephanie says on 17/Apr/07
Dakota looks 4' 11"-5' 0" range based on this year's Kids Choice Awards photos. Remember, her heels are smaller than the other actresses' heels, she slouches, and her little sister Elle is 4' 7" (or thereabouts) as of December 2006. She is definitely over 4' 9" now, lol! :)
I think 5' 9" is exaggerating a little (maybe a lot of people are tall, but there are still much shorter people), unless you're talking about the boys. The tallest country in the world, The Netherlands, has an average of 5' 7" for women aged 25+, and the average seems to increase by about 1/2" every 30 years or so... Even counting the fact that many girls are done growing at 13 (don't grow at all in high school), 5' 9" is a very tall average.
The average height for guys age 25+ in the US/UK is around 5' 10" and is 6' in The Netherlands. Yes you are says on 14/Apr/07
Kristen yes you are abnormally tall there are only a couple of kids in my school who are 5'9" and they're guys, we're 13, too. Hannah says on 9/Apr/07
Dakota definitely grew taller. She also matured a lot in her face. In all of her movies she looks so much younger than she does in recent pictures and events. Ellen says on 8/Apr/07
I agree with Stephanie, she seems to be about five feet tall. Looking at pictures of Elle and Dakota together look so much like pictures of me and my sister together and I am barely five foot two and she is four foot ten, so I'm guessing they are just one to at the most three inches shorter than we are. Gabby says on 8/Apr/07
i really wish i could meet her. i am about that height and i am 12. Kristen says on 7/Apr/07
it is kind of short...im 13 and im 5' 9", but im not abnormally tall, all my classmates are around the same height. Ellie says on 4/Apr/07
4'10" actually isn't THAT short for age 13. it would be if she had a fuller body shape (meaning she went through puberty already), but she's a stick, so she still has a lot of growing to do. i was 4'10" at 13, and i'm 16 now and 5'2", plus my doctor says i'll grow at least 1-2 more inches. so dakota will most likely be average or sleightly below average height, presuming she really is currently 4'10" cute says on 3/Apr/07
shes not 4'10 or over that... shes under that.. surely..
at the picture with teri hatcher.. she look likes she's half a metre under teri (50 cm - ca. 25 inches.
and at the picture that stephanie has shown below.. you can se a picture with dakota and emma roberts.. emma is about 5'1-5'2... and emma is about 5 inches heigher than dakota... which puts dakota at 4'8... look for yourself.... Stephanie says on 31/Mar/07
Elle is 4' 7" and Dakota looks about 5' 0" now. She looks 5' 2" but she's wearing heels that look about 2" tall, and Elle is wearing flats. Click Here
These pics were just posted and are from a few hours ago. :) olivia says on 11/Feb/07
ya i am from the city that her stunt double lives in . and ya in our local paper it said 4'7 Stephanie says on 11/Feb/07
The skiing pics were taken in January 2007, and the article stating Elle's stunt double's height to be 4' 7" was written in January 2007. So this is current stuff. Dakota is at the age where she might grow, but she's scheduled to begin filming a new movie as Elle's twin in September 2007. Right now they're pretty close to the same height (fraternal twins), but in 7 months, Dakota could grow a lot and won't be able to play Elle's twin. Stephanie says on 8/Feb/07
Never mind. I take that back. Dakota is about 4' 9". When I first saw the skiing pics of her with Elle I thought she was about 5" taller. But Elle was bendng down a lot if you look at the pics at Totally Elle. Look here and they're almost exactly the same height: Click Here
According to a U.K. article, Elle's stunt double is 4' 7", so Elle is probably around 4' 7" as well, puting Dakota at 4' 9", 4' 9.5". She's not 4' 10.5" and definitely not 5' 2"!
[Editor Rob: in 6 months time she might be in a growth spurt] Stephanie says on 5/Feb/07
My estiamte for her current height is 4' 10.5". It's now 2007 and she's almost 13. She was estimated 4' 7" in October 2005, and Elle looked about 4' 3" (4 inches shorter). Now Elle is probably 4' 5" (assuming she grew 2" since then) and Dakota looks about 5.5" inches taller, putting her at 4' 10.5"... she's grown a lot in the last year, and remember she does often like to wear flats. Stephanie says on 28/Jan/07
She's still tiny though. Oprah is 5' 6.5" and was alot more than 4.5" taller than Dakota, which is the height difference there would be if she really were 5' 2". Maybe she was in heels and you in flats when she walked out? That would explain her looking 5' 2". But heels are about 2 or 3 inches, which would put Dakota at 4' 11" or 5' 0". Anonymous says on 27/Jan/07
I'd say she's 5'2" because I saw her in Chicago a month or so ago on The Oprah Winfrey shoe and as she walked out she passed me and im only 5'4" and she was at around my eye level so a good 5'2" -5'4" Stephanie says on 26/Jan/07
Dakota is not 5' 2". She is around 4' 10", and still growing based on the height of her parents (she barely comes up to their shoulders). And 5' 5" is not all that tall for 12 because you might be done growing (now if you were 9 or 10, that would be a different story)! Lots of girls are "above average height" at age 12 and don't grow anymore after that. I was about 5' 0" at her age and I'm 5' 8" now. My friend was 5' 5" at that age and still is 5' 5". Anonymous says on 24/Jan/07
I'd say 4' 10.5" for her now. In October 2005, Dakota was about 4' 7" and was barely taller than her sister Elle from the Dreamer premiere pics. Now she's a lot taller than Elle, and I'm guessing Elle grew a little since then. mouldy says on 1/Jan/07
...How old is this girl?? If she's 12 she's really tiny for her age! My younger sister was 5'0" when she was 12! And Dakota is only 4'9.5" ?? Jeez! Katherine says on 31/Dec/06
I think that dakota is about 5'2 cuz im a week younger than dakota and im 5'5 and im quit tall and in recent pictures of her i zoomed it in on the laptop and i measured her and she came to 5'2 well i come from south africa and its gr8 here well talk lava cya Ellen says on 24/Dec/06
Based on what I've seen lately with promotional stuff for Charlotte's web, they are definately trying to make her look shorter. My guess would be that she's about 5 ft. She was wearing flats next to Oprah and Julia Roberts who were both wearing high heels and she still didn't look very short. They're trying to make her appear to be shorter and more childlike to promote Charlotte's Web.

I am sure Dakota is atleast 4' 10. In these at th e bottom of page) Teri Hatcher has heels and is standing straight. Dakota has 1/4 of inch shoes. Think about it. Click Here Maria says on 25/Apr/06
I seriously think that Dakota Fanning is definitely 4ft 8inches. Some people were saying that she's 4'11, and I disagree. Also where she is next to Jamie Lee Curtis, Jamie is leaning her shoulder making it look as if Dakota was at her shoulder, but shes below that. I'd say shes a good 4'8 max, of course shell grow. Im thinking shell grow about 5'5 to a 5'6 1/2 when she gets older though. Faye says on 16/Apr/06
erm, kelly, 5'10"-4'11" is an 11" difference, NOT 9" enter name here says on 16/Apr/06

Dakota 5'? No way! Maybe shorter than 5 feet because if she is 5 feet and my aunt would look like a old hobbit beside her..
[Editor Rob: yes, she's still not 5ft...I mean look at the pics on the bottom of the page with Hatcher standing properly. There is a good foot difference, so take off maybe 3 inches (dakota has 1cm shoes) for teri's heels and you still have her maybe near 4ft 9...but not 5ft

She is 5"1 John says on 12/Apr/06
In general, the human head is about eight inches long so if Hatcher is 5'8", then Dakota would be five feet tall if she came up to Hatcher's chin. However, when I look at the picture it appears that she is a few inches below her chin meaning that she would be less than 4'11". name says on 9/Apr/06

In this picture, Dakota is with John Stamos and Terry Hatcher. Hatcher is 5'8" and Stamos is 6'1". She is above Terry's shoulder. I'd say she is 4'11" at the least. name says on 9/Apr/06
I am 99% sure Dakota is 5'0" tall. As you can see in this picture on the following link, Dakota is past Jamie Lee Curtis' shoulder.Jamie Lee is 5'9. She looks less then a foot taller than Dakota.

You can never tell at that age. When I was 12 I was aboout 5'5" and everyone thought I'd be really tall but I haven't grown since (well maybe 1/4-1/2 an inch). Bianka says on 2/Apr/06
It really doesnt matter because i am also short for my age.And people probably dont know how tall she really is. I haven't seen her so i dont really know how tall she is.I'm about 5'tall.I think that thats pretty tall but i the second shortest kid in my class.Some people told me that when they saw me they thought that i was 9. But anyway it doesnt matter how tall she is because people like her anyway.=)

Hey!!! I saw Dakota Fanning on Valentines Day, and believe me- she looks about 5' even. I, myself am a grown woman and am 5'2, and I had on heels (making me about 5'4) and Dakota had on litttle ballerina shoes( which maybe gave her about 1/8 of an inch , and she was about 3 1/2 or 4 inches smaller than me. I'd say shes about 5'. She may be in a growth spurt. charlie says on 13/Mar/06
so i guess shes not a good candidate for being tall huh, thanks amanda Amanda says on 11/Mar/06
She is 12. Here are the heights, and if you follow the arrow you can see what the height of each person would be if they follow the growth curve. Remember, this is just a guess; lots of people end up shorter/taller than their predicted height at age 12.
4' 7" is the 5th percentile --> 5' 0.5"
4' 9" is the 25th percentile --> 5' 3"
5' 0" is the 50th percentile (average) --> 5' 4.6"
5' 2" is the 75th percentile --> 5' 6.5"
5' 5" is the 95th percentile --> 5' 8.5" charlie says on 11/Mar/06
Is she one average height, below or above,I cant tell for that age.So is she gonna be a 5'2, 5'5 or like 5'9???? Amanda says on 11/Mar/06
Reese has huge heels on (look at how steep her foot is), which add about 4" to her height, and Dakota is not really standing up straight (see the placement of her feet). Plus, that was before her 12th birthday party pics-- look at those because they're more recent. From the October pics, next to Elle, you can see there is really not more than 3" height difference. Dakota's height estimate was 4' 8" and Elle's was 4' 5.5". Now, Dakota is clearly gaining some height. In early January she looked about 4' 9" next to Witherspoon and in late February she could be in the 4' 9.5"-4' 10" range, comparing her to 4' 5.5" Elle. Remember, don't judge next to Hollywood women because they wear giant heels. Anyone 5' or less who has no heels is going to look tiny. Amanda says on 9/Mar/06
I just got notified that Dakota Fanning responded to the Childstar_fans' birthday book, so the DakotaFanning group should get a reply any time now because they mailed their stuff out on the same day that Childstar_fans did (21/Feb/06, so it would arrive on 23/Feb/06, which was Dakota's 12th Birthday). And then we'll get to see how close all of our guesses were for her height! Amanda says on 9/Mar/06
She has definitely grown since October. Has anyone seen the pics of her 12th birthday? She's about 4' 10" now-- 4' 8" was probably right from October, but now they height gap between her and Elle has increased again. And I am not just talking about Dakota's platform shoes (which are about 1.5" taller than Elle's shoes that she wore). Elle is about 4' 5" and Dakota looked close to the same height in October. Now Dakota is definitely much taller. I think maybe Dakota is finally starting to hit a growth spurt! So, the people who guessed 5' 0" aren't stretching too much. And the people who think she's around 4' 7" are simply judging by pictures from summer/fall 2005. I think that she'll probably hit/pass the 5' 0" mark by her next birthday, or even this summer. Some kids can grow several inches in a short time span, so you never know!

I seriously doubt 5'0" is probable for Dakota; I'm around 5'1" and when I wear shoes that are COMPLETELY flat I do look a lot taller than Dakota (well, it's not like I look in my mirror and go, "oh i look taller than dakota fanning" randomly; NO, but from memory I look a LOT taller) also Dakota is bone-thin, and many thin people appear taller because there is less "horizantal excess" to scale down their height ratio.
I'm guessing close to Rob's estimate. Amanda says on 6/Mar/06
gyllenhaalic823- Well, discussing the height of Dakota is kind of pointless until we get the letter back from the DakotaFanning Yahoo! Group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DakotaFanning). There is no way to tell for sure because she almost always wears ballet shoes with NO soles! Of course she's going to look tiny. Especially when most women in Hollywood wear heels. Even the ones who are 5' (like some people say Dakota said she was) wear shoes big enough to make them 4"-6" taller! But maybe she really is small. Estimates range from 4' 7" to 5' 0". Editor Rob's estimate is 4' 8", and he's usually pretty close to correct (within 1/2" to 1"), in my opinion. But with all the camera angles, and Dakota's low shoes and slouching, she might actually be closer to 5'. We don't know! That's why we're asking her!
In response to shawn's question, here is the index for all children, if you want to take a look: http://www.halls.md/chart/child-growth/pediatric.htm. And here is the chart for height of white girls like Dakota: http://www.halls.md/chart/girls-height-w.htm The average height for a 12-year-old girl is 4' 11.5" or about 152 cm. This site seems pretty reliable because they are close to the national CDC height charts. The only things I think they changed since the 1970's publishing of the charts are that kids are slightly taller (the height average has gone up by half an ince since then) and heaver (unfortunately, weight has also gone up).
If you're from the UK, I just looked and white people of the USA have the same averages as all people in the UK, and since the UK doesn't put out race-specific height averages, you can just use the "white" people one (even if you're not white) for average purposes. gyllenhaalic823 says on 5/Mar/06
I just don't see how seven inches is possible, that's all. Usually people who are short and wind up tall grow 3-4 inches in college
hey come on get back to Dakota!! Amanda says on 3/Mar/06
No. She really did grow seven inches. She was seriously 4' 11" at the end of 8th grade, when she was 12/13. When she started 9th grade she was 5' 6". You do not know her so how can you say that she didn't grow that much? Even her brothers and sisters say she grew seven inches in that summer. And what's with the gender-related comments? Girls can grow that quickly just like boys do; it's just more rare.
Unnatural? No. What is unnatural is when midgets/"little people" have this surgery done where they literally break their bones so they can regrow and make themselves taller. (I saw a talkshow episode about that once.) Everyone is different and grows at different times and speeds in their life. It's part of your genes. Some people grow a lot at once. Others grow slowly over a period of several years. It just depends on the person. Can it cause health problems? Definitely! People can experience growing pains, bloody noses, dizziness, illness, etc. And if you grow naturally your bone structure will eventually adjust, but you'll just be in a sort of awkward stage for a while. If you grow unnaturally (bone breakage), your bones won't adjust properly and your body will stay the same but you'll just have longer arms and legs.
Another girl who grew a lot is my friend Nicoletta. She looked about 5' 2" at the start of our junior year (age 16), and by spring she was 5' 8". That's six inches, so seven is definetely possible! shawn says on 24/Feb/06
rob, or anyone...: is she average below or above average for her age?????
Stephanie/stephe1987 says on 24/Feb/06
I just got Amanda's e-mail and it sounds like Dakota's height is causing a lot of debate on this site. So, to settle the arguments, I will send the scans of her 12th birthday questionnaire (one of the questions asks her current height) to Editor Rob when I get them back. Then we'll know how tall she really is! It might be a while because I told her to take her time filling it out because she's been getting a lot of mail lately. After all, it's her 12th birthday (23/Feb/06)!
How tall do I think she is? I have no idea. In some pictures she looks around 4' 6" and in other pics she looks close to the 5' mark. We'll see what she says in a couple of weeks to a few months from now (depending on how quickly she gets back to us).
~Stephanie anonymous says on 23/Feb/06
To gyllenhaalic823: yes, but very, very few girls are 5' 8"-5' 11" at that age. That's above the average for grown women. I think Krista and Amanda were talking about the ones who are average, get a giant growth spurt, and don't grow anymore. And then there are others who are above average and stop growing for a while while the others pass them up. And then there are the tiny ones who stay tiny (which is why the average is 5'). Anonymous says on 23/Feb/06
gylenhaalic823, my friend was 15, when he had a MAJOR growth spurt. He grew 4.5 inches in a little less than 3 months (he went from 5'8'' to a bit more than 6'), so don't say it's impossible. He was my classmate for 8 years and he wasn't that tall. I barely recognized him after we hadn't seen each other during the summer holidays...
[Editor Rob: I guess sharapova is best example of an 18 year old girl gaining 2 more inches...from 5ft 3 age 13 to 6ft 2 age 19] gyllenhaalic823 says on 14/Feb/06
oh yes and krista the girl who are at full height at 12 are far taller than 5'4"; they are the ones from 5'8-11". And there you contradicted yourself saying they would be 5'0" in your little "chart". gyllenhaalic823 says on 13/Feb/06
"So they went from 4' 7" (age 10) to 5' 4" (age 12) in two years. That is 3.5" per year during a growth spurt . . ."
seven inches in two years is too much . . . I got the information from my doctor, thank you very much. Amanda says on 11/Feb/06
The average for 12 is 5', but that's because it's an AVERAGE, and it's thrown off by the girls who have early growth and are at their full height (or within an inch or two of it) already. Dakota is the average height for an 11-year-old, but she also hasn't had her growth spurt yet, and many girls her age have, so she just seems tiny even though she's not. Elle seems closer in height to Dakota recently because she just went through a growth spurt, and Dakota wears ballet shoes, while Elle is in regular shoes.
In 6 years, hmmm. It's hard to tell because she hasn't grown yet. A girl who is 4' 9" at 12 and 0 months is supposed to be like 5' 2", according to height estimation sites, but other people can grow even more and be 5' 4" or 5' 5". I really don't think she's going to be anything really tall, because if she was going to be much taller than that she would be over 5' now and she clearly isn't. I think 4' 9" seems about right, regardless of if that is her actual height as of last month. She does seem to be growing a little and will probably get a growth spurt soon. For those of you who say she is 5' or 5' 1", maybe she will be by Christmastime or her next birthday, but not quite yet. Kari says on 7/Feb/06
