Women’s Petite Clothing FAQs
What height is considered petite?
Anyone who is less than 5 feet 4 inches tall is considered petite. However, petite clothing is about more than just your height. For instance, sleeve lengths can range from half an inch to about two and a half inches shorter than average or tall-sized clothing. Your inseam may also be about 3 to 6 inches less than those of an average-height person. While many clothing options don’t cater to your needs, we do.
We offer a diverse selection of women’s petite clothing that has been designed to meet these specifications and create flattering, well-fitting options for petite women.
