T thought she looked a little less than 6'0. Closer to 5'11. Steve says on 27/May/08
this is what I find strange about these comments. This site has Liv Tyler as being 5 feet 10 and Helena Christensen being 5 feet 9.5. In ANY pics you see of both of them, Helena is clearly taller. People are questioning Elle being 6 feet (despite a supermodel friend who claims she is 6 feet 3) yet, in oics with Helena, Helena comes up to Elle's eyes.
6ft model says on 7/May/08
dis is sad like shes 6foot and dats a supermodel height!! most r 5ft10 to 6foot 2 the taller the better so get a life cum on who cares if shes 5ft11 or 6foot wats an inch im 6ft and a half i always get o u mus be bout 6ft 2 im not but im 120 pounds!!! if i wasn did tall i wuldn b a model Puge Henis says on 27/Apr/08
What anonymous is saying is true, but the opposite is true too. I just met Billy Ray Cyrus, (as if anyone cares), and when I hung around him he didn't seem that much taller than me. But my picture next to him made him look WAY bigger than me. I'm 5'9" and he is supposed to be like 6' but in the picture he looks 6'1" or 6'2". Maybe it was his boots. anonymous1 says on 23/Apr/08
Steve explain this:

She was at providores in Marleybone London the other day, I am about 184cm and she was a fraction shorter and looks great for her age!! Steve says on 20/Apr/08
Anonymous1.....what the heck are you saying? You make no sense. anonymous1 says on 20/Apr/08
When you look at someone ,who is a little shorter, as tall and little taller than you, you may think he/she towers over you. This is due to your eye-level. Steve says on 8/Apr/08
Explain this...I did a search Elle Macpherson heels. An article came up from March 2008. In the first paragraph the author states that he is 6 foot 2 and Elle towers over him wearing 3 inch heels. If she was only 6 feet, she would be an inch taller, which is far from towering. This is pretty good proof that she is at least 6 feet 2 or taller. anonymous1 says on 2/Feb/08
Anon, your pics did not echo what you said. anonymous says on 1/Feb/08
she still looks shorter since uma is bending her hips and slouching a bit. uma thurman is clearly taller than elle. I think uma should be upgraded to 6`0. There is no way that she is shorter than elle. Wallace says on 1/Feb/08
Elle's back shoulder isn't higher than Uma's. As for Elle being "clearly taller" I don't see it as her head is upright and Uma's isn't. If Uma held her head as straight as Elle she would gain at least another half inch. At best Elle is the same height but unlikely if they are wearing similar heels. Anon says on 1/Feb/08
No, Rob should leave her height as it is. Looking at the pic with Uma Thurman again, I think Elle is actually equal or a bit taller than Uma if both barefoot. The reason you think Uma is taller, is because at shoulder-level, Uma's front shoulder is slightly "shrugged upwards", and higher than Elle's front shoulder. But looking at their far back shoulders, Elle's is higher. The other thing is, I think the pic is tilted in Uma's favor. You can tell because both women's bodies seem not to be vertical, but tilted to the left. If you rotate the whole pic a bit in Photoshop, you'll see Elle is clearly taller. Here it is:

she is 5"11.5 not 6' Rob needs to change this Anon says on 27/Jan/08
Uma's heels look at least 1" and look how bent Elle's right leg is. I'm pretty firm on this cos I have several friends in the fashion industry who've all worked with Elle in the late 80's, early 90's during her days on the runway, and they all said she was at least 6-0, and she was barefoot most of the time except walking down the runway... anonymous says on 27/Jan/08
If their heels were the same size, that would still make Macpherson an inch shorter. The tallest Macpherson could be in this photo is 5`11.5 and that would mean she would have to be barefoot. Dont forget, Uma is wearing half inch heels. Anon says on 27/Jan/08
Come on guys, those pics with Uma Thurman are hard to judge. Do we know their heels are the same, and their postures aren't straight. Uma's heels are cut off in the second pic, hard to tell how much more of it lies below the page. They're def pretty close but I can still see Elle being taller.
As for Rebecca Romjin, all I can say is that she's tall and supermodels over 5-10 tend to downgrade their heights, since it's the ideal height for female supermodels, that's what complicates things. Claudia is a but over 5-11 but often lists herself 5-10... anonymous says on 25/Jan/08
I suspect she could be close to 6`0, like 5`11.5. But next to Uma thurman, it becomes quite obvious that she is not 6`0. There is no way she is .5 inches taller than her. She looks about an inch shorter. anonymous1 says on 24/Jan/08
I suspected that Elle isn't 6 ft when I saw the SI 2006 video.You can see any height difference btn Elle and rebecca romijn who's 5'11 anonymous says on 23/Jan/08
could she have lost a little height perhaps. She is into her 40's and women do lose height a little sooner than men do. It really wouldn't come to shock if she lost a half inch. Or it could be that uma is a little taller than 5`11.5 anonymous1 says on 22/Jan/08
anonymous,your evidence shows that she's indeed 5'11.But,I started to wonder why she towers over Claudia Schiffer, who's also 5'11.But, later on I realized that Claudia is 179 in cms according to some sources(which translates to 5'11).It could be that Elle is 181 in cms(which can also be translated to 5'11) and that explains why Elle towers over Claudia Schiffer. anonymous says on 20/Jan/08
i think she is 5`11. In this pic next to Uma Thurman, she looks a half inch shorter Click Here
Plus, in this pic, we can see that uma thurman's heels give off a half inch max Click Here anonymous1 says on 10/Dec/07
If she's indeed 6'3, she should be 4 inches taller than rebecca romijn.Take a look at the 2006 SI.com to see what I mean. Perhaps some may argue that rebecca looks taller as Elle wasn't standing straight.But ask yourself can Elle stand 4 inches taller than Rebecca if she were to stand straight? On the other hand can you account for the Elle and Uma has no visible difference? Anyway,Nat, your friend may overestimate her height.I think it will be better if Elle's height is measured via the measuring tape. Her body structure makes her look taller. Nat says on 29/Nov/07
Anonymous1:
Listen, all I am doing is passing on info I got FIRSTHAND from a model friend of hers... anonymous1 says on 29/Nov/07
Nat, please look at the following comment.
Danny says on 27/Jul/07
She was at providores in Marleybone London the other day, I am about 184cm and she was a fraction shorter and looks great for her age!!
How much can she slouch to make herself shorter than Danny who is 184cm,especially when she's not taking a picture???? Nat says on 24/Nov/07
I just wanted everyone to know that I just had two e-mail conversations via myspace with Stephnaie Seymour's PA about Elle's true height. She told me that Elle is 6 foot 3 and wears a size 12 shoe. She told me that she and Stephanie are great friends and they still keep in touch. This may explain why Elle slouches in almost every picture she takes with other people. anonymous1 says on 8/Nov/07
JUst look at the comments given on delta goodrem's height.Not everyone agrees she's 5'10(178cm). I would Elle is 180-182 cm. But it is still hard to justify
Elle is 182cm since she's shorter than Uma Thurman.Her body structure and her
skininess(skiny) make her look taller. btoy says on 28/Oct/07
she is 6ft, look at the picture of her and delta goodrem, who also could be a model if she wanted to with those high cheekbones, but delta is 5'10", just google it, she is taller than than the also tall delta. 6'0 guy says on 5/Oct/07
She looks 5'11-6 foot. She is very manly in general. Very tall, broad shoulders, no curves. anonymous1 says on 22/Sep/07
By loooking at dstrzdr comments and seeing Elle at the 2006 SI video(where she looked a little shorter than rebecca romijn), I think she's 180-181cm. dstrzdr says on 3/Sep/07
Looks shorter than 1.83, specially next to Uma and Naomi C. on high heels (NC 1.77m + 10cm and looks like 6-8cm taller) anonymous1 says on 27/Aug/07
I think Elle's 181cm. If you look at the comments on Uma thurman 's height, you'll notice some of the comment givers think Uma is 181-182cm. If Elle's a little shorter than Uma, then she should be 181cm. anonymous1 says on 6/Aug/07
Danny, thanks for enlightening me. but, how much is a fraction??? Danny says on 27/Jul/07
She was at providores in Marleybone London the other day, I am about 184cm and she was a fraction shorter and looks great for her age!! anonymous1 says on 23/Jul/07
It is known that Uma Turman is 183cm. but you can see that she's way taller than Elle.(refer to the Valentino pic)Definitely she's not 185cm.But is she really 183cm??? amanda says on 4/Jul/07
anonymous1, guys who are 3 cm taller than me usually look about my height or shorter. it might have something to do with their body shape (broad shoulders, big torso, whatever), or the fact that they're lying. the latter aside, i guess to answer your question, i guess not.
:P anonymous1 says on 22/Jun/07
If Elle is 182cm and I'm 185cm, are we compatible in terms of height? steve says on 22/May/07
who are the "some"? She is listed in Guinness book of world records at 6 foot 1. That is enough proof. Famke Jannsen said that she has a few inches on Rebecca in an interview and Famke is 6 foot. anonymous1 says on 22/May/07
Why don't you guy's go to SI website and watch the video entitled "models reunion"? Just stop the video at 1:57 and you'll realise that Rebecca Romijn is indeed taller than Elle Macpherson.By the way, there're some who thinks than Conan is only 6'2.5". steve says on 17/May/07
when she walked out she was wearing boots with approx 3 inch heels, no more. You could see her when she was approaching him anonymous1 says on 9/May/07
Hey anonymous, how high are Elle's heels? anonymous says on 7/May/07
steve, have you seen how big her high-heels are? anonymous1 says on 7/May/07
Why isn't there a big height difference btn Elle and Rebecca Romijn,who is 179cm?
Just watch the SI video and see What I mean. anonymous1 says on 4/May/07
This comment is in response to what steve has said.Well,If Elle's 5'10", it is not true that she is the same height as Cindy Crawford. Because, if you look at the comments given regarding Cindy Crawford's height, you'll realise that Cindy is 5'8" max. Hence, by being 5 feet 10 Elle is still taller than Cindy Crawford. Elle Macpherson is definitely taller than Claudia Schiffer but I am not convinced that Claudia is 182cm. Ben says on 3/May/07
she is definitely 6'0 steve says on 2/May/07
you guys are flat out crazy...she is at LEAST 6 foot 1. Why would Conan say she looks like she is 7 feet tall when she was on her show? She was in heels and was the same height as he was. He is 6 feet 4 and in shoes he is 6 feet 5 at least. If she is 5 feet 10, than you guys really think that she is the same height as Cindy Crawford? Every article about her starts out with how unbelievably tall she is. anonymous says on 1/Apr/07
Elle should be less than 5'11" because if read the comments given on Rebecca
Romijn's height,you will come across someone who have watched the SI video. And since Elle can't be bending her legs throughout the video, she should be 5'10". anonymous says on 1/Apr/07
To respond to what jake said on mar 13 2006, I want to say that in that picture,we couldn't see their legs. Elle could have stand on a higher ground or could have tip-toed.You can also take a look at the picture Elle took with Ben Affleck who is 189cm. There was a big difference in their height, hence I am sure Elle is 178cm. anonymous says on 31/Mar/07
I must admit that it is easy to fudge supermodels' height because they are very thin.
I don't blame modelling agencies for listing Elle Macpherson as being 6'0 tall because if they list her real height, she may not as popular as she is today. anonymous says on 31/Mar/07
I have seen a picture of Elle Macpherson standing beside Rebecca Romijn. Both of them were bare-footed. Elle looks shorter than Rebecca, who is either 5'10 or 5'11. Hence,I think Elle is only 5'10(178cm).In fact, I have asked a few models what is their height.I notice that theyare 2" inches shorter than they claim to be. For example, the model is 5'9" tall but she claimed that she's 5'11.Hence, I believe that Elle macpherson's height is fudged.Go to the 2006 swimsuit illustrated website to see what I mean. anonymous says on 22/Feb/07
Though not over 6`0, likely not under either. Anonymous says on 22/Feb/07
how do you know about the heels they were wearing? dmeyer says on 22/Feb/07
matt leblanc had 1.8 in boots when working with elle and she had 0.2 in flat anonymous says on 21/Feb/07
she does wear high-heels a lot though. STill 6`0. tom says on 8/Feb/07
I came across an in which a journalist described her as being "superhuman tall with huge hands". 6 feet is tall but not superhuman tall. She is well over 6 feet barefoot. Editor Rob says on 11/Jan/07
Feb 1986 Atlanta Journal, she said: "I'm 5-foot-12" J says on 4/Jan/07
I stood next to a the wax dummy of Macpherson at Madame Tussauds when I was younger. I am now 6'1 and even when I was younger she didn't seem that tall. Pete says on 3/Jan/07
same height as matt le blanc in that friends show she came out Anonymous says on 6/Dec/06
Actually, most people who have met Hurley estimate her at that. In addition, she only looks about 5'6" next to 5'11" Hugh Grant. mike says on 2/Dec/06
Calvin, how can you dismiss the picture with Elizabeth Hurley...do you think Hurley is 5 foot 6? irshgrl500 says on 11/Nov/06
Hello rr-
i read Guinness book of world records long time back amd it listed elle at the tallest supermodel at 6'1". They surely would have done some verification. PS - they listed Kate Mossas shortest supermodel at 5'6"
I have the "Guinness World Records 2000: Millennium Edition". In the chapter, "Fame", under the heading, "Supermodels", it lists Elle as 6'1", the tallest Supermodel, and Kate Moss at just over 5'6", the shortest Supermodel. Like you rr, I would tend to think such "records" to have been verified and particularly, Guinness' records. In the Publication Credits, the book states, Guinness has a very thorough accreditation system for records. irshgrl500 says on 11/Nov/06
Hello dkko-
I was responding to Aussie's earlier comment. He stated "one" (anyone) is shorter in the mornings. Actually, people are a tad taller, when they measure themselves, in the morning after a nights sleep. (not always, but often). Aussie commented, "you are always shorter in the morning". You are actually taller. Aussie's comment:ive met elle before, we won tickets to a black tie event at star city in sydney.. i am 6'0 and was about 6'2 in my dress shoes that evening.. she had high heels and she was virtually dead on my height, if anything only acouple of cm shorter anyway im certain that at bare minimum shes 181cm, which is 5'11.5 but in the evening you are always shorter than in the morning cause im usually 6'1 morning.. so id say shes prolly abit over 6'0 in the morning.. im certain Mike says on 10/Nov/06
Raz,
I don't see it that way (not saying you are wrong). They appear to be almost touching. Raz says on 9/Nov/06
mike, Petra is standing about a foot behind Elle. Unless the photographer used an long telephoto lens (not the case here), the difference in height will appear substantial in an image like that. It's practically useless for the purpose you intended. dkko says on 27/Oct/06
irshgrl500, what makes you believe that Australians are the only ones who are taller in the morning, doesn't everyone? Bill Clinton for example is 6'2, but in the morning he can easily be 6'2 1/2 irshgrl500 says on 23/Oct/06
AUSSIE-
People are TALLER in the morning, not shorter! If you measured 6'1" in the morning, you are DEFINITELY NOT 6'2", through out the day. mike says on 9/Oct/06
She is clearly 6 feet 1 minimum. Listen, each time she is on a talk show, she towers over people and one topic they always bring up is her height. In today's world a 5 foot 11 inch women is not that uncommon. But, a 6 foot 1 inch women, wearing heels that make her 6 foot 4 or 6 foot 5 is uncommon and that is why she is always being asked how tall she is. jake says on 24/Sep/06
On Conan, Conan couldn't believe how tall she was. He even said she looks like she is 7 feet tall. She is most likely 6 foot 1 or 2 easy. aerotive says on 22/Sep/06
Just a little anecdote...she was on Conan last night, said she had dated people shorter than her, taller than her, and her height. Said that she's not a "heightist". First time I've heard that term. Al84 says on 20/Sep/06
May I say she's 6'1 cause i met her years ago in ibiza she was barefoot walking on the beach and i was wearing trainers and she was at least 3 inches taller than me...i'm5'9 by the way...very tall girl elle sam says on 12/Jul/06
Please go to superiorpics.com and click on forums (models). There are pictures of Elle at a recent event wearing sandals. She has the biggest feet I have ever seen on a person (male or female). jake says on 13/Mar/06
In the infomercial, Elle is barefoot and Duffy is in shoes the entire show. Also, she tends to slouch a lot to hide her real height. To respond to the SI cover...Elle is the only model not standing up straight as her legs are bent. If you go to the si website and look at her images, there is one picture with her and Rebbeca Romijn and Elle is at least 3 inches taller than her. phil says on 12/Mar/06
There's an infomercial with Elle and Patrick Duffy. We see them side by side in bare feet on several occasions and Duffy is at least 3" taller than Elle. Duffy is listed as 6'2", but is probably taller. So 5'11" to 6' would be right for Elle. charlie says on 11/Mar/06
She was not taller than matthew perry on FRIENDS, so with put increase his height or decrease her's. i think she is not 6', a bit less in the 5'11.25 maybe Jason says on 6/Mar/06
182cm/5'11 1/2'' is her correct height I think. Lena says on 6/Mar/06
lol haha we do so use height and feet in australia. but we mainly use cm's but yeh i think she is 6 foot because as rr said she is one of the tallest supermodels but my mum is a flight attemdant and her friend was surving the plane (qantas) and elle was on there and she wouldnt speek english to anyone she would only speek french :S ??? (but she had a translator) pretty weird ay....anyway they said she was about 2 inches taller than one of the hostestes which was 5 foot 10...shes definately 6foot dmeyer says on 17/Jan/06
in friends she looks 6 feet because when she wears flat with no heels at all she is the same height as leblanc with 1.5" heels 6 feet seems right rr says on 10/Nov/05
i read Guinness book of world records long time back amd it listed elle at the tallest supermodel at 6'1". They surely would have done some verification. i got a photo taken by the side of her wax model in Madame tusssauds, but could not make out much since it was not taken at a proper angle.
PS - they listed Kate Mossas shortest supermodel at 5'6" Tybor says on 31/Oct/05
In friends she was practically barefoot in here scenes. If you look closely she's always wearing Keds. rick says on 31/Aug/05
Australians don't use feet and inches, so I often heard about her height 182 cms which is sometimes translate by 5'11" sometimes by 6' but I really thinck her actual height is 182 (5'11 3/4".) Z2 says on 30/Aug/05
I heard she was rounded up to 6' by her agency and that her real height is 5'11". J.J says on 6/Jun/05
Nah, she doesn't look 6' beside Matt LeBlanc or Matt Perry in Friends, unless she was barefoot during all her scenes I'd say 5'11" more likely |
