What is Petite fashion?
Each time I write about Petite fashion, I like to explain to people what means “petite” when talking about fashion. Petite means clothing to fit shorter women, typically 5’4 (162cm) or under. Are you in this category? In that case, this blog post will be useful for you!
More about each retailer that sells Petite clothing
ASOS
ASOS is one of the first websites that I knew sells comfortable basics and maxi dresses for Petites. Therefore, a few weeks ago, I finally had a chance to order from their Petite section for the first time. Firstly, the results amazed me (the try-on haul on my Youtube channel). As it is the Fall season, I am interested in knee-high or over-the-knee boots. Secondly, I have always struggled to find a good-fitting over-the-knee boot. Asos offers some over-the-knee boot options for Petites, but it differs from the country you are at. One of the best Petite clothing websites is ASOS.
Nordstrom
Something I want to try out and review is Nordstrom. Nordstrom is known for high-quality and more expensive fashion and brands. The first fashion item on my wishlist is Spanx leggings. However, Nordstrom does not have a good choice of Petite items, only around 100. In conclusion, Nordstrom is one of the best Petite clothing websites with luxury products.
Amazon
I included Amazon because Amazon has a Petite category and options. I even have one pair of high-quality fitness leggings for Petites. However, even if you filter by petite fit, it is still not understandable if items will be Petite! It looks like people might have added anything to the Petite section. However, if you use the search bar, you will find Petite items faster! Moreover, Amazon is one of the best Petite clothing websites that sell all around the globe.
Nasty Gal
I knew about the brand and webpage for a long time. However, I never knew the brand represents Petites as well. Nasty Gal is also known for its book and movie, which shows how Nasty Gal was created by an ambitious girl who started it on Etsy! Therefore, I suggest you watch the movie and read the book if you have not yet. In conclusion, Nasty Gal has very trendy, edgy, and chic clothing!
Marks & Spencer
The brand is well-known around the world for its real-life stores. When I used to visit their stores, I was very young, and their classy style was not for me at that time. However, now I see a lot of looks from Marks & Spencer that I would shop for my closet! Marks & Spencer works actively for sustainability and supports 100% cotton sustainability. However, on their page, you can find a lot of casual and street-style items!
Karen Millen
If there is a brand that thinks about its sustainable packaging, less waste, and working environment, it is Karen Millen. It is one of the best Petite clothing websites for elegant short women. Most importantly, Karen Millen is the brand that reminds me of Royal UK ladies and Parisian style! If you are searching for classy, elegant workwear, then you definitely should look into Karen Millen. Karen Millen surprised me by having a petite category (very curious about trying it out).
Yes Style
One of the best Petite clothing websites for Korean fashion lovers. YesStyle is one of the brands that I have reviewed and tried a lot. However, I used to buy more regular fit items. However, I ordered products from the Petite section recently (YesStyle try-on haul). However, YesStyle is mostly a fast-fashion website, and shopping from them can be a hit or miss. I would suggest reading size charts for each item and review. At the same time, some items I shopped seem like high-end fashion items. For the best quality, shop for Korean brands and in-stock items (if you do not want to wait a long time for it to ship).
GAP
The first time I found GAP was when I was shopping in Italy five years ago. I bought some T-shirts (very soft and comfortable) and a cardigan because the sleeves were perfect for my arms and not too long. Therefore, I. am not surprised to see GAP offers Petite options as well. GAP is a more casual and streetwear style.
Macy’s
From more affordable brands, we have reached Macy’s, which is more expensive and luxurious. Mostover, Macy’s is well-known for capsule wardrobe items, basics, and essentials!
Missguided
Firstly, I like brands like Missguided. Moreover, the price is according to what the brand offers. Secondly, the brand has trendy and timeless style outfits, and you can find everything you are looking for in your closet! In conclusion, Missguided offers a lot of Instagrammable and trendy looks.
Boohoo
Firstly, one of the most famous brands that people love to see on my LTK, is Boohoo. However, it is also one of the best Petite clothing websites if you are on a budget. Most importantly, Boohoo is very affordable and offers chic, trendy, and casual streetwear. Therefore, watch the try-on haul I filmed. In conclusion, Boohoo is one of the best Petite clothing websites with affordable prices.
Banana Republic
When we look at Youtubers and their hauls, I see them talking about the Banana Republic a lot. The Banana Republic is another high-quality brand with higher prices. However, the quality is worth it. The brand is known for its “smart chic” and high-quality fashion essentials.
Abercrombie & Fitch
The brand is very well-known as traditional American fashion. However, use the search bar or click on any item to see If it is available in petite. The webpage itself does not have a Petite category, but most of its products are available in regular and Petite fit.
Anthropologie
Anthropologie represents many brands, and all of them offer Petite clothing. Moreover, the brand has mostly “smart style” and high fashion. What makes Anthropologie unique and different, the brand also offers styling services. Therefore, if you need help or want to improve your style, you can ask for help from the stylists of Anthropologie.
New Look
New Look is another affordable brand that you can shop on their page or search on Asos. I am not very knowledgeable about the brand myself, but it is popular in the UK.
River Island
River Island and New look are very similar brands. The brand is known for a little better quality and has a higher price (but reasonable for the quality). I am curious to shop from River Island one day, as my go-to fashion is usually middle-priced. I love good quality, but do not have a budget to shop for luxury items.
Old Navy
Another brand that I hear a lot about from the USA influencers is Old Navy! Old Navy is well-known for its high-quality clothing, good-fitting activewear, and comfortable streetwear.
Talbots
If you are in your 40s, 50s to 60s and have a Petite fit, I would suggest Talbots. The brand offers a more mature style for ladies in their 40s to 60s. The clothing is very elegant, modest, and classy! Last but not least, Talbots even offers Petite options for curvy ladies.
Miss Selfridge
However, if you are still in young spirit, shop From Miss Selfridge. The brand offers more chic, young, and fun designs. Asos Sells Miss Selfridge as well.
J Crew
J Crew is another famous American brand. The brand offers comfortable clothing, fashion basics and has a “smart” minimalistic style.
Express
Most importantly, if you wear office clothing and search for high-quality workwear, you should go to Express. Express offers mostly classy fashion essentials and workwear.
Etsy
Etsy is well known for small business support, creative designers, and unique fashion clothing. You can find everything on Etsy, also sustainable fashion and tailored designer fashion items. Etsy is one of the best clothing websites with unique designs.
Debenhams
Debenhams is a retailer that has many different brands underneath the name. I was very surprised to see the Boohoo brand. Therefore, I did not even want to include Debenhams. I thought it is a high-end luxury retailer but I was wrong.
Fashionnova
Fashion nova used to be so popular, every Youtuber would make hauls, reviews, and try-on videos of Fashion nova. The page is well-known to sell affordable fashion, which is suggestive and trendy. However, for Petites, it does not offer a lot. The choice is super-small, mostly only a few dresses and pajama pants (which do look very soft). To find Petite fashion, use the search bar.
Which of these, the best Petite clothing websites are new for you, and which are the ones you shop from for your closet? Most importantly, I would love to hear your commentary on Petite fashion and retailers.
