Welcome
Hooray, you've found us! Chances are, if you're here reading this you are petite. Actually, chances are, if you're an average female you are petite*! Just for fun, we thought you might like to know that even 'Amazon women' are petite. In other words, the average height of women in the Amazon region of the world is under 5'4".
We digress... the point is, it's time this global petite posse's rallying cry was heard—it's time for clothes cut to fit us that we actually want to wear. That's the clincher…that we actually want to wear. The Petite Shop has heard your cries, ladies, and is here rounding up all the ready-to-wear petite fashions in a variety of colors, styles, sizes and price points.
While many well-known brands are hopping on the petite bandwagon, [wo]man can't live on a few retail chains alone, hoping their local mall's location has a petite section. Not to mention, it's time that independent, trailblazing petite designers had somewhere to showcase their work!
*No, seriously--70% of U.S. women are considered "petite," at 5'5" and under. The average height of U.S. women is just over 5'3"!
** The Amazon region of the world includes the following countries: Peru, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Guyana.
Yes, we know that the term "Amazon women" technically relates to the nation of all-female warriors in Classical and Greek mythology.
