    The word “petite” in French means “small”. Quite understandably, people therefore assume that petite clothing is for slender and smaller framed women. This is a misconception – petite clothing is for shorter women irrespective of their size. If you are 5’3” or below, chances are high that you should be shopping in the petites department.
