Dressing for your Body Type - Petite

Petite

 

Generally speaking, petites are small, slender and shorter women (5’3” and shorter); BIG fashionistas in small packages!

 

We recommend deep necklines and empire waistlines, which will help elongate petite figures.  Go for bright colors and patterns – you can pull it off! Avoid oversized styles and loose fitting dresses such as ponchos – they are too much for your small frame. Use the Petite body filter when searching for dresses.
