They have a similar shoe heel height in that photograph, and really - Emma looks taller than Helena Bonham Carter (who is actually between 5'1" and 5'2" BTW), by about a singular inch to an inch and a half but no more. Factor in the fact that Helena is holding her (adorable) daughter who is probably weighing her posture down quite a bit, and you really have a natural difference of about half an inch to an inch between Helena and Emma - given that Helena is no more than 5'2", Emma is obviously no more than 5'3" herself.

I agree with you guys but there's opposition in this picture. Helena B. Carter is 5'4 (include heel) but Emma looks taller than Helena 2 or 3 inches. What do you think?
Sarah says on 29/Jan/10
Given that Emma is turning 20 soon, I think it is safe to assume she isn't growing, and doesn't appear to have grown since 2006 or 2007.
On the topic of her brothers height - I can't find him on the Storm website anymore, but I do recall it stated his height as 5'10", and the general assumption is that 5'10" is a vastly exaggerated height for Alex Watson - the consensus is that he is no taller than 5'8".
Their parents are not tower-like people - without having measured either of them, I would estimate their mother at 5' and their father at 5'7" - 5'9". Emma is no more than 5'4".
Ariella says on 27/Jan/10
On this site, yes it was probably added in 2006, but as you can see they do not update it, her site was added in 2007, and by then she was not going to grow anymore, and it is quite clear that she has not grown at all and that she is definitely 5'4 at most.
looplaloop says on 26/Jan/10
that was added in like 2006 or 07. Its 2010 now. I thinks there is a chance that she grew atleast an inch in 4 years
Ariella says on 25/Jan/10
If the minimum height for males was 5'11, then Alex would not be allowed to model and his profile would say 5'11, but it does not it says 5'10, so at most he could be 5'10, but Emma is definitely not 5'6 or even 5'5, it's clear that she's shorter than that, she's 5'4.
Rika says on 24/Jan/10
Minimum height for males is 5'11, minimum height for females is 5'7.

Yeah, Emma Watson is easily 5'5...but i could also buy 5'6 aswell.
looplaloop says on 23/Jan/10
This height seems to have been added a while ago. If you go on her official website, she personally answers the question. She is 5 ft 6. :)
Ariella says on 22/Jan/10
Well they say her brother is 5'10 on the Storm Agency site, so 5'10 is probably minimum. But I think we've all established that she's 5'4, seriously, it is obvious, so much it's starting to get sad for those who think she's 5'6. I think they should change her listed height on here now. haha
Casey says on 22/Jan/10
You have to be 5'11 minimum but usually 6' - 6'2 to be a high fashion male model. That's why they have to prop her up next to that guy.
SomeDude says on 18/Jan/10
Wow, this girl is 5'4 - 5'5 and I always thought she was 5'6 AT LEAST ! LOL, a camera can do wonders, man !
Ariella says on 18/Jan/10
They have her standing on a board? XD even when she's already in at least 4 in. heels, well that just proves it as well, she's 5'4, they did that obviously so she would be taller. And the floor is not uneven, it's just the angle of the shot.
Mae says on 14/Jan/10
I just notice this. At the BTS of the new Burberry ad she seem to be standing on a board Click Here and it's a set (right?)and the floor looks uneven Click Here
Ariella says on 14/Jan/10
I do not think Emma is any shorter than 5'4, and she's definitely not any taller, but Emma is no way "tiny" the only way she would be is if someone was referring to her height. And people who are considered tiny are small boned, as well as being short, and she's not small boned, she's medium boned.
Sarah says on 11/Jan/10
Mae - MK Olsen is 5', Ashley Olsen is an inch taller at 5'1". Emma is likely a little taller than both of them - I would place her at 5'2"- 5'4" and not a bit over, but Emma's legs are proportioned in a way that makes her seem a little shorter than she really is. I don't think she is quite as tiny, short and slender as the Olsen twins, but she certainly is petite, and lovely.
Mae says on 10/Jan/10
Click Here Click Here Not exactly a pic evidence but they saw her personally when she gave a surprise visit on The Today Show. Says here "Emma is just as pint sized as the Olsen Twins in person" How tall are the Olsen twins? and one commented "I saw her there today too! She is soo small in person!!"
Sarah says on 9/Jan/10
Ariella - I have to agree on both points - she is indeed 5'4" and no more, and obviously as the 'main feature' girl of the Burberry campaign and images, it is the photographers job to make her appear at her best - in this case, taller than she is.
Ariella says on 8/Jan/10
Emma is definitely 5'4, seriously, it's pretty obvious she is. She was 5'8-5'8.5 in. in those heels then. Also you have to think of angles of the camera, they can make people appear taller.
Sarah says on 8/Jan/10
Mae - I read on TFS that the four guys in the Burberry campaign alongside Emma are her brother Alex, who we have established is between 5'7" and 5'8", and the other three guys - George Craig, Matt Gilmour and Max Hurd are in fact not actual high fashion models (one is a musician, one the son of a member of the band Pink Floyd, and as for Max Hurd, one source suggests he is a model, others report he is a 'socialite' - neither his face nor his figure appear to be particularly high fashion, so I suppose the latter is correct) so we can safely assume that none of them are above the minimum male model height of approx 5'11".
To reiterate my opinion, Emma - 5'4" MAX.
Mae says on 6/Jan/10
Watch the behind the scenes of new Burberry ad campaign Click Here what do you think? The shoes she wore are at 2:40, I think the shoes are 6 inches or 5 - it means only 3.5 (?) or so inches were added on her height, but with 2 inches platform it gives her 4 - 4.5 inches or so on her height. I don't know the height of the other boys (might be the same height as her brother) but they were not standing straight at some of the shoots. BTW, I love the coats, but I detest the shoulder pads. Don't revive the shoulder pads!
Ariella says on 4/Jan/10
Emma is definitely 5'4 and sometimes her heels are not that tall, but sometimes they are, recently she has been wearing at least 4 in. Heels. But again she is definitely 5'4 at most, she is an inch shorter than Bonnie who is 5'5. She is also an inch taller than Helena Bonham Carter who is 5'3.
Stephanie says on 4/Jan/10
Her heels are not that tall. I think she's about the same height as Dan. They both state themselves to be 5' 6", but they could be adding an inch to their height, so 5' 5" is possible.
Sarah says on 1/Jan/10
The fact remains that Emma has a tendency to opt for heels that are around 5 inches or more in height - lending her up to an excess of 4 inches. I don't believe she has worn flats when photographed with other people for quite a few years now, it's commendable that she is able to walk in those teetering heels. It is also doubtful that her brother is a genuine 5'10", he appears to be 5'7" - 5'8.5" and no more, although I can't be certain of this (I haven't measured him myself, obviously). Emma is certainly no taller than 5'4", and is possibly slightly less - the fact that the males that she is often photographed with - Daniel, Rupert, her brother Alex, are all less than average vertically may lend to the assumption that she is taller than she is. All accounts often lend her the description of 'tiny' or 'petite', and while I understand the compulsion that taller girls (like myself) have to want Emma to be taller; she's the face of Hermione, the heroine of intelligent females, but the facts have to be faced - Emma is not a statuesque, willowy Amazon of a woman - she's little, and is beyond growing any taller, but this does not subtract from her beauty. Just because a girl is average, of an average or below average height does not make her hideous. I have heard girls harp on about how gorgeous her brother is, although I don't see it at all myself, they don't consider the fact that he is obviously well below the average height for a male, so why should it be any different for Emma? Her parents are also quite tiny, they have some brilliant genes going on in their family obviously, regardless of short stature.
Rachel says on 31/Dec/09
5'5" is accurate. 4 inch heels DO NOT give you a full 4 inches of height. Read the "heel height truth" article on this site. So if she was wearing 4 inch heels and was 2 inches shorter than her brother who is 5'10, that wouldn't make her 5'4".. that would make her at least 5'5".
Ariella says on 30/Dec/09
5'10 is not very tall for a guy actually again regardless Emma is definitely 5'4.
Kevin says on 30/Dec/09
sorry but alex watson is clearly a 5'7 as rupert. modelling agency's always exaggerate heights, just look at (former) models like Ian Somerhalder, kate moss, cameron diaz, Mark Wahlberg etc. unfortunately an model under 5'11 isn't attractive height for the fashion industry. i bet in 3 or 4 months he gonna be an "6'1" model

Emma is quite petite, another proof: Click Here
Mae says on 29/Dec/09
Click Here 5'4 sounds right. She's so tiny in this video OR those three with her are super tall regardless of the shoes they were wearing (Emma was wearing her usual heels)
Ariella says on 27/Dec/09
I do not think that they would exaggerate on Alex's height since 5'10 is sort of an average height for males. Regardless though Emma is definitely 5'4.
Jane says on 21/Dec/09
I just wanted to say that modeling agencies often exaggerate their female models height (a poignant example is Kate Moss, who was once listed at 5'8" when she is clearly around 5'5", 5'6" MAX). The shorter the model, the more inches they add. In cases of exceptionally tall female models (in the 6'3" region) they tend to subtract from the listed height. Case in point, with the assumption that the same rules of exaggeration apply to male model heights, I doubt Alex Watson is a genuine 5'10" (which is short for a male model in any case - they average around 6'1" - listed height), and is more likely to be in the 5'8" - 5'9" region. In regards to relevancy, I don't believe we can justifiably take his listed height as a means to correctly judge his sisters height.
Ariella says on 11/Dec/09
I agree, I do not think they would exaggerate on a model's height on a modeling agency site. But one way to tell that Emma is in fact 5'4 is if you look at pictures of her and her brother, not pictures from 2007 because he was a lot shorter then, Alex has a profile on Storm's site and it lists him as 5'10. If you look at him and Emma at the Damned United premiere, it shows that she is easily in 4 inch heels, and even in those heels, he is clearly still 2 inches taller than her, so if Emma did not have the heels on he would be 6 inches taller, so Emma is definitely 5'4, it's quite obvious, actually.
Ariella says on 9/Dec/09
@kris that's probably because they realized their wrong XD. I agree I do not think they would exaggerate a models height on a modeling agency. Emma is definitely 5'4 though because if you look at photos of her and her brother, not ones from 2007 though because he was a lot shorter that will help because Alex is also on Storm's site and it lists him as 5'10. If you look at photos of Emma and him at the Damned United premiere, she is in easily 4 in. heels, and even in those heels he is still 2 inch. taller than her. That's 6 inch. total that means since he is 5'10 she is 6 inch. shorter than him so that would make her 5'4. It's quite obvious if you look, she is definitely 5'4.

In these picture Emma is with Sophie Sumner (from BNTM)
Emma is in pretty high heels, but still smaller than Sophie. I first figured that Sophie must be really tall (she was one of the taller ones on BNTM) but then I stumbled upon this: Click Here
Sophie Sumner is 5'9", and since model agencies will usually not put a model down as smaller than she is, I'm thinking this is about right.
Emma is getting at least 3.5" if not 4" from those heels, and granted they're both walking in the first and not standing really straight in the second (especially Sophie, look at her knee), I'd say Sophie still has a good inch on Emma, if not 2 if they'd both stand straight.

I know the ones saying she's 5'6" or 5'7" don't seem to be on here anymore, but this does show she just can't be more than 5'5".
Jane says on 8/Dec/09
Ariella - I agree, even if she was 5'6", which she certainly doesn't come close to, she would reach a maximum of 5'10" in her standard 4" heels.

I believe her proportions should also be considered when judging her free-standing height. It's not just her 'thinness', although she is indeed slender. Take someone like Kristen Stewart for example - she is also slender (in fact, I would wager that the two girls are the same height and weight), but the proportion of her body that is composed of leg is higher than that of Emma's, making her appear taller (the first time I saw an individual photograph of Stewart, I would have placed her at at least 5'7", whereas an individual shot of Emma seems to suggest she is no more than 5'3)

Anyway, for arguments sake I will suggest Emma is 5'4", when she wakes up.
Ariella says on 6/Dec/09
Also like I've said camera angles can make you appear taller, but she is definitely not 6'0 when in 4 inch heels she's 5'8 in 4 inch heels, so she is 5'4.
Ariella says on 6/Dec/09
Because People magazine is most likely going off what her site says, she's 5'4 it's quite obvious if you really look at certain photos. But she's not extremely thin at all and being thin does not make you appear taller unless your really thin, which she is not, she's just fit. She is definitely 5'4 though.
Melody says on 6/Dec/09
A recent issue of People Style puts her at 5'6. If she was 5'4, she may appear taller due to her thinness and tendency to wear high heeled shoes.
Ariella says on 5/Dec/09
Wow people are still arguing about this? Bonnie I'd say is 5'5 AND she is an inch taller than Emma, so Emma is 5'4. @Katie the photo you posted, Bonnie is clearly an inch taller, and Emma could be slouching a bit but it does not appear so in the photo, and even if she was if she stood up straight, she still would not be close to being the same height as Bonnie. Plus when Emma is in 4 in. heels, she's 5'8 she's definitely not 6'0 like she would be if she was actually 5'6 which she is not. That would be rather obvious if she was that tall in 4 in. heels. Also Helena Bonham Carter is 5'3 and when Emma was standing next to her she was only an inch taller, Emma is definitely 5'4. Also Emma will not grow anymore, I did not check to see if people have asked that, but I am just clarifying it, Emma is definitely 5'4 and she will always be 5'4. Camera angles can make you appear taller, which happens basically all the time.
Jane says on 2/Dec/09
We have no idea how tall her boyfriend Jay is, so I don't really think it's an apt measure. He kinda looks to be a pretty average height to me. I reiterate my opinion: Emma is absolutely no more than 5'5" at the very maximum, and appears to be in the 5'3" region.
Celia says on 19/Nov/09
Here's a picture of Emma with her boyfriend Jay Barrymore...he's got to be a good 6'4"-6'5" tall. So Emma is definitely around 5'5". Click Here
Jane says on 16/Nov/09
Katie - judging by photographs where Emma and Bonnie are in close proximity from the recent HBP premieres, Bonnie is undeniably at least an inch taller than Emma - even when accounting for heel height, where Emma's shoes are usually towering 4.5-5.5 inch heels which will generally give 3.5-4.5 inches in height.

Actually, both Emma and Bonnie seem rather petite - if we look at Emma free-standing sans heels, she looks between 5'2" and 5'4", and no where near her claimed height of 5'6". I'm not sure if Bonnie has ever stated her approximate height, but I would venture a guess that Bonnie is a genuine 5'5", Emma being from 5'3.5" to 5'4". Either Emma is unsure of her height and is adding on to it (perhaps her agency - Storm - told her to do so?), or she is awkwardly proportioned and simply looks leagues shorter than she is - I think it is the former. And in regards to her slouching - it seems to be a sort of relaxed state for her, particularly when she was younger (I am the same), but she rarely does it now (maybe the abundance of heels are straightening her back, or maybe she's had lessons because she's more in the spotlight now), but Rupert also has the tendency to slouch, more severely than Emma, and although he is relatively the tallest of the trio, he appears to be of a fairly average height, at around 5'8" to 5'8.5" (claims of 5'10" and 5'11" are laughable, really). Dan is likely Emma's height to 0.5in or an inch shorter, at around 5'3" (once again, his 'five-foot-five' is an exaggeration, but really, being insecure about a diminutive or petite stature is ridiculous, because the guy has character and that's the human point)
Jules says on 13/Nov/09
@katie she's slouching so she looks two/three inches shorter than Bonnie. Number one problem with Emma is her posture. She already looks so small and short, even on TV and pictures and even with high heels and yet her posture is bad. (Sorry for the comparison) Unlike Megan Fox who is only 5'4" (she said it) but with those heels she looks 5'8.
Katie says on 12/Nov/09
Hi, There is picture from half-blood prince set
Click Here
and i dont think Bonnie is taller than Emma just about 0.5inch
your opinions?
heights937 says on 7/Nov/09
jules, I didn't know the picture I posted was so long ago, but I really think she's in between 5"4.5 and 5"5. really have no idea though, but I could sit here and calculate measurements with the pictures all day haha
Chad says on 4/Nov/09
@Jules: I think you are about right on Emma's height. I think she is closer to 5"5. But here is a little heel height 101 as I understand it. A typical high angle heel with a minimal platform at the front that is 4-4.5 inches at the back of the heel does not actually give you more than about 3 inches additional height over your barefoot height. Check out the heel height truth section for further explaination. Then once you factor in the shoes a man would wear @ a good 1 inch, these types of shoes only give about a 2 inch advantage over a male dress shoe. Even Emma's 5 inches would only give her a 3 inch advantage relative to Rupert.
Jules says on 24/Oct/09
@heights937: possibly that she is also 5"4.5 tall but that picture is years ago. And there is also a possibility that she is less taller than Katie leung since she was wearing chuck taylor.

Here's a photo of Emma from HBP premiere in New York Click Here she was wearing 4-5 inch heels (ouch!)and here's a pic of her with Dan and Rupert (who was slouching)Click Here In their UK premiere Rupert (who looks pretty much 5"11 if you compare his height to Dan) looked like he was 1 - 2 inch taller than Emma and she was wearing, again, 4/5 inch heels (it look more like 5 inches) Click Here Click Here if you subtract her heels from Rupert's height (assuming that in the picture he's 5"11) that made her 5"6 (?) and then subtract 2 inches since in the picture Rupert looks like 2 inches taller, that made her 5"4 (?)
Jules says on 23/Oct/09
Ooh, late post. I think 5"4 - 5"5. on HP and the Half blood prince premiere where she was standing between Rupert and Dan, she was wearing 4 inch heels and she looked like she was with the same height as Rupert (assuming that Rupert is around 5"8-"9) and only 3 inch taller than Dan.
heights937 says on 22/Oct/09
ok, I found a perfect picture, celebheights says that katie leung is 5"4.5, so here's emma right next to her and they've both got flat shoes on so what do you guys think?
