Best original gift ideas for petite women under 5’4 or 164cm in your life. When I had the idea to write this blog post, I was not sure I would come up with enough ideas. However, when spiralling and thinking of why these gifts are great for petite women, reasons came up easily. I did not even know some ideas existed; now I want them too!
If you are a Petite reading this blog post, send it to your family, friends and partners (or Santa Claus), to let them know what you want for Christmas. I hope my readers are not offended easily because some are fun items (but practical). Honestly, I would be happy to receive all of them!

Stool (to reach things in cupboards)
The stool is a funny gift to give someone who is Petite, like your girlfriend or wife. However, it is very practical. Therefore, if you know what your woman always struggles with, then she might be very thankful for the gift. It also works if you have a Petite friend who is independent and lives alone.
Petite brand list of 100+ brands
Did you know that there are more than 100+ Petite-friendly brands? It took me a few years to gather all the information about different brands and retailers across the world that sell clothing and shoes for short women. Petites struggle a lot with shopping, so this is a great last-minute gift idea (it comes in a digital PDF format).
Self-defense key chain
A self-defence key chain with pepper spray or any self-defence device is a great gift for any woman or a child that you want to protect. However, Petites are smaller and easier to kidnap. Therefore, a great stocking filler or gift with maybe a note: “Anti-kidnapping device for Petite as yourself”.
Self defense lesson
Self-defence lesson is a great gift for anyone. However, you need to be sure the person would actually use it and not just waste the gift. I think each woman should do self-defence classes to feel stronger and more confident.
A brick?
Need a very affordable and funny gift idea? Wrap some stones and bricks as a Christmas gift for her to put in her bag. Another anti-kidnapping device but more on a budget.
Petite t-shirt merch
We have reached the unique, creative but also practical part of the gift guide for short women. Petite merch is a great gift as it offers unique designs to choose from as well as products. As a fashion lover myself, I would go for a T-shirt or hoodie.
Petite mug
However, if you are searching for something more simple that everyone would love, give her a mug with a Petite design. She will definitely have a cup of coffee at home or work and think of you!
Petite apron for those that cook
If you know a Petite that loves to cook and is always in the kitchen, why not give her an apron instead of a t-shirt? Fun Petite design on it that will make her smile every day.
Book: I would rather be short by Becky Murph
I did not know there existed a book for Petite women. When I was researching if there is some fun gift for Petites that I should include, I found this book. It sounds amazing, powerful and inspiring and I really want to own it right now!
Gift cards from petite-friendly stores and brands and retailers
Do not know what to gift your Petite woman? Many Petites do not know about brands and retailers that sell clothing exclusively for them! To be honest, I found out about it only recently. Therefore, in the end, the gift card from a Petite brand or retailer might be the best gift she ever received.
If you do not know which brands sell Petite clothing, read the blog post I wrote of best-known brands and retailers. However, to support smaller brands, you can read the list here.
Petite fashion magazine
With the gift card or any other gift you decide to get, I suggest to also download (and maybe even print or send her on e-mail) the Petite fashion magazine. The Petite fashion magazine is completely for free that you will get in your e-mail by subscribing to this blog. This magazine includes motivation for any short woman, inspirational interview, tips and tricks as well as full list of all Petite fashion brands and links!

Petite leggings
There are not enough leggings for any woman. However, a Petite woman will be even more thankful if you give her Petite leggings. Firstly, she might not know they exist so she buys regular ones. Secondly, she did not know where to buy it. Thirdly, she will just be happy that you appreciate her as she is and have noticed what she needs and struggles with. Asos, Spanx and LoveLeggings have some great quality leggings for shorter women.
Personal stylist online for Petite women
Buy a Petite stylist consultation for her online, and thank me later! I wrote an article about the difference between a Personal stylist and a shopper, as well as sharing the best stylists online for Petite women (including the stylist subscription boxes).
Waist belt
Last but not least, a waist belt. If your Petite is a fashionista, she definitely loves belts! However, waist belts are the best because they make Petites legs look taller and can be used for many dresses that are without a shape to make them look more flattering!
What do you think of these original gift ideas for Petite women in your life? It was fun writing for me and coming up with these ideas. I did not think that I would have so many ideas and how to justify them as a great gift for Petites. However, I think I did a great job. Is there any other gift that Petites would love to get?
