One of the the many misconceptions about petite sizes is that you have to be some tiny little thing to qualify. It is almost a conspiracy if you think about it, just ask anyone in the department stores and you will find they aren't purvey as to what clothing petite size actually represents or means. So, if the young lady at the clothing store doesn't know then who does?
In truth the designation petite size refers to height, not girth: so, with that said, women under 5' 4" are considered petite, no matter if there size is 24 or 4. This obviously raises many questions when women are out searching for petite clothing.
For instance, although many shorter women's main concern is about how womens petite size clothing is going to fit. Such things like pants that aren't going to drag on the floor and shirts which the sleeves are the right length.

This frustration will only lead you to the end of the road fast. Here is some encouragement though: clothing stores, both online and offline are quickly recognizing the gap and are working diligently to close it for all you petite size women. I know, you are saying it is about time!
These online speciality stores are filling your petite clothing needs, and
fast.
