Rob, those heels are 3 inches? In that link, i can't even tell that they give her an inch. Are they hidden heels or something?
[Editor Rob: the photo I link to shows me in the green shirt and dichen in the clothes she is wearing in the top photo :) And those are what I'd call near an inch heel, and my sneakers are 0.75 inch...therefore my description "she had a slight advantage over mine" makes sense ;)
here is a Photo another girl took of Dichen's heels from the other event.
I say in my description she has 2-inch advantage (I have inch sneakers)...but actually seeing the heels again, I'd say the heels gave a fraction more than I first thought, so I'd say the advantage was more 2.2-2.4 inch.]

Dichen was born in Nepal to an ethnic Tibetan mother, and white Australian father. Shaun says on 6/Dec/11
Probably had a tall Aussie father. Shaun says on 6/Dec/11
Definitely got some Tibetan ancestry, looks like the girl who was in Seven Years in Tibet. Tibetans tends to have very broad full faces which are broader in the cheek bones than the forehead. For a lady of Tibetan.Nepalese origins she sure is tall, most Tibetan men aren't as tall as 5'6". Hannah says on 6/Nov/11
wtf.. She is Tibetan Australian, not nepalese. Tibetan people are born in exile in Nepal and India mostly,where they take refuge. But,they don't consider themselves as Nepalese or Indian. 180cm says on 13/Aug/11
she looks like a grey alien, face and eyes, honestly? beautiful! always liked her.
she does look 5'6 legit, once in a while though she can appear as tall as 5'7 but must be some trick or footwear. Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 12/Jun/11
Rob If shes got a thicker boot she isnt even 5'6? There looks at least 2 inch here before footware..167 tops!
[Editor Rob: the closer the footwear the easier to see someone's height. Sure, she can be a fraction shy of 5ft 6 or 5ft 6.] ArjunaKoral says on 17/May/11
@Anonymous: I find your comment that beautiful Dichen gets her height from her Australian dad RACIST & IGNORANT! First, u should know that there r some tall Nepalese & Tibetan people (both men & women). Conversely there r some short Australian people as well. My best friend is Nepalese & he has both male & female cousins who r tall (upto 5ft 8 for women & 5ft 11.5inches for men). And these people are not mixed with Europeans or Australians! I myself am from a Sri Lankan background & have a sister who is 165cm (5ft 5). It's not just white Europeans who have a monopoly on height! Anonymous says on 31/Jan/11
"This is tall for a Nepalese." Lachman is actually of Tibetan descent and her father's Australian, so she's mixed and probably got her height from her father.
5'6" seems right. |
