WHY SHOULD PETITE WOMEN BUY CLOTHES LABELED PETITE?
Clothing labeled “Petite” is supposed to be specifically designed and cut for women whose arms and legs are shorter than the average. The sleeves, inseams, pants crotch, and skirt lengths are shorter. In addition, high-quality petite clothing also scale down things like the size of collars, jacket lapels, torso lengths, and even the size of patterns and prints on fabric.All these things are key to identifying clothing that look and fit well for the smaller woman.
