Kate Winslet is approximately 5 feet 6 inches (167.6 cm). Despite some misconceptions, she has often mentioned her height and emphasized that she is not exceptionally tall.

In various interviews, Kate Winslet clarified her height and the fact that she has larger feet, which she inherited from her mother. She wears a shoe size 11 (US).

I’m not 6 feet tall, for God’s sake. I’m 5-foot-6. And I don’t even know what I weigh – I’m probably about 130 pounds – and on the magazine, I look 100 pounds. I know lots of young women go out and buy these magazines. I didn’t want them to think, ‘Kate Winslet has let us down, she’s lost 30 pounds!’ I don’t want anyone thinking I’d want to look like a rail. I’m normal weight; and I’m comfortable with how I look.

Kate is comfortable with her normal weight and wants to promote a healthy body image, particularly for young women whom magazine portrayals may influence.

“This drives me crazy! I’m only 5-foot-6, but people think I’m sort of a great big Viking woman. I’m not — I’m completely normal and average,” she told Good Housekeeping about her height and confirmed she was overweight as a teen.

Kate’s entire look was simple yet effortlessly elegant and incredibly sultry. What do you think?

The then-38-year-old English rose was joined on the red carpet by her taller co-star, Shailene Woodley, who stepped out in her best look since starting the Divergent promotional tour.

After turning heads in gold and taking on the menswear trend, Shailene swept us off our feet in the “Betta” gown from Stella McCartney’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection.

This beautiful Capri-blue gown features a low neckline, lace trims, an open back with sexy cutout details, and a sweeping train. Shailene kept her hair and makeup simple to keep the focus on her glamorous dress. She styled it with her favorite gold necklace and a gold snake bangle that she wore as an arm cuff.
