I Need Clothes!

Kohl's is the best place for Petites they have their own section I know mine is next to the Maternity section that is what I have to buy anything else just won't fit me too long,Old Navy,JC Penny's,Sears,Gap,Gordmans
I have to often ask where is the Petite section some are included in the other sizes you just have to look on the tags it'll say short or P for petite L for long A for average

lands end and victorias secret (online) have GREAT fits for pants! they do petites and i've found that the 'way' the pants fall on me feel really great!!

lands end even lets you size the inseam down to the inch!

also Gap online!

Gap
New York and Company
Kohls Croft and Barrow brand (I just bought some last month)
Are some of the places I find Petite short.

Also, try the major department stores in your area. You may pay a little more, but since you will not have the hemming expense it works out to be about the same.

Ask the sales clerks - I've found they can usually point me in the right direction.

It does get to be expensive to have things hemmed. And I can't wear 5 inch heels to make the pants the right length. LOL

Happy Shopping.

I don't know if you have a burlington coat factory around you or not, but I have found lots of petite clothes there including pants. Hope this helps.

Try Old Navy. They sell a lot of things in "short." Good luck.

Try Land's End and LL Bean. I believe both carry what you are looking for and even though you have to do mail order, I think they both have free returns.

Macy's they have a pretty large Petite section that also has short sizes.

I have the same problem. I always have to cut about three inches off my pants and hem them, no matter where I shop. The only advice I might have would be to try Lands' End pants where you can have them specifically hemmed at whatever length you need.
I've just become very adept at hemming, though it would be nice to just buy pants off the rack and be able to wear them right away. As my aunt reminds me, it's a lot easier to take off a few inches rather than try to put them on!

Try JC Penny, or Talbots, Chadwicks on-line. I am short and I get them there they fit really good.

Gap online~and if they do not work out u may return to store.. or nordstrom offers free alterations if regular price.. I am only 5ft 1.

I would say Kohls they have a great petite selection

Go back to the store where you made your find and speak with the store manager. Really play up how much you love their store and are looking forward to shopping there. Even if they don't have it at that time they may be able to call another store or get it in for you.

If you know the brand and style of the one you already bought and liked, you may want to check www.amazon.com . I've had lots of luck there for specific bras, etc.

I always have luck in the petite section at Kohl's for pants. If you want a little higher end brands I have been having amazing luck at Marshall lately with petite lengths. Someone gave me this great tip about Marshalls. Only look at the racks that are around the edge of the departments that is all their new and current items. Don't waste your time in the racks that's the older merchandise.Make a quick stop to look at the perimeter of the store. As someone who has always struggle with length I have always turn to getting things hemmed. I know it's a pain but at least you get your choice of the item you actually want. I also have turned to finding a brand I like and ordering online. Hope this helps!
