  • I am so glad you posted this! No one understands the struggle! I want to find CUTE petite clothes! Kholes section sucks!

  • i am 5 foot. i have a REALLY hard time trying to find clothes for me...

  • I am 4' 11" and thin. I do have a difficult time shopping, but it works out in the end because I do get my clothing tailored. It's the only way a petite person can stay out of the childrens' department.

  • I know they never fit. So I just shop in the children's department. I wear a size 12. And in shoes I wear a size 3-4.

  • all of my friends have long legs but me, and it sucks. (27/28" inseam person here) I don't know any store besides forever21 that has small sizes for people that are around 5'1". >:(

  • that is so true i have a friend that is 4' 8" and she shops at the kids section because all the petite clothing looks like its for women who gave up on trying to look good @uneekfreak 16 im size 4' 11 and i gave up shopping at american eagle

  • @sweetcheeksO125 im teh same as your friend. i am just under 4ft10 and i shop in the kids department sometimes . age like 11 or 12 . im 16 !

  • being short is the best :D :D

    GO SHORT PEOPLE :D

  • any irish women , a-wear make short jeans :) really handy 4 my cos ive short legs :P

  • Yeah, stores a lot of times who makes "short pants" don't really make them that short. I bought some short pants at American Eagle and they were still too long. I was stepping on them. And I'm 5'2! What about the people who are 5 feet?

  • I just signed the petition, thanks for organizing. Chances are, it will just take some creative women investing in a business. There is money to be made. I am so tired of the old lady clothes they make for short women, even old ladies want to look attractive. It is about time we made a change.

  • i completely agree with u!

  • well im 150cm 43 kg last time i checked anyway i have tiny girl shoulders pisses me off most times i have 2 fix up bra straps or singlet tops coz of it different sizes can all be attractive and have there own issues with sizeing thats whats great tho everyones different!!!!!!!!

  • YS PETITE IS BEUTIFUL, GAY MAN LIKE TALL WOMEN BEACOUSE THEN WHEN THEY WANT TO COME OUT TO THE WORLD AND BE SEEN AS BEUTIFUL TO AS GAY MEN THAT THEY ARE. i have felt bad about being petite for a very very long time

    but not anymore

  • what do you mean ? you had a transformation from petite to a tall one? howd you do that?

  • That is why MOST models continue to be tall while it should be a thing of the past due to designers needing skinny, tall coat hanger type models who didn't distract from the designs, it carried on it's legacy because gay men love women that look unisex, like Tv's or that could be men. The taller a woman is the bigger her feet and hands. Tall is masculine hence why women love tall men.

  • Supermodels, top models, models period, the title shouldn't be exclusive or defined by whether or not someone is 5'2, 5'5, 5'8' or 6'0". Gay men run the modeling industry and what they find attractive is what is hired. The designers don't have a clue they choose from the batches offered to them and NONE of those ZED or Composite cards of models are petite. The agents hold the cards and all of the agents are GAY as hell/

  • that is the most ignorant comment ever. the fashion industry is not fun by only gay men. yes certain designers are gay but others are women, like donatella versace and most notably coco chanel. its double standards like that that keep straight men with true designing talent from ever seeking a job as a designer. and this video isnt about the height of models. its about ready-to-wear clothes for the general public.

  • You may want to re read my comments! The designers are victims of this pathetic industry, as they are forced to go with the flow, or be shunned for hiring petites. Agents & bookers control them until they become successful & trained to follow the rules. This video is about the importance of petites in the fashion industry to create petite sizes & my comments reflect the very reason why it is the way it is. I've worked in the field for over 30 years.

  • oh yea sometimes i shop @ the store 5-7-9. i shopped there when i was a cute skinny little 00 to now where ima more curvy sexy size 5 or 7.grown/older women can shop there 2. (im only 18)

  • i agree cuz im petite im only 5'2 and wanna model. but im not really skinny. i actually have curves! i wear like a 7. i can fit petite clothes but sometimes they're 2 old 4 my personal style. most ppl in my fam are small boned and sometimes its hard 2 get stuf that fits. it used 2 b impossible 2 find a size 00 4 me. now i still sometimes find it hard 2 find stuff that fits. it's either 2 big or 2 small.

  • I'm not going to be part of a trench war against women of other sizes but as a petite woman who used to be plus sized petite and is now a slim petite it's always been difficult to find anything that fits, flatters my slim curves and isn't dated in style. Yes, shock! Petite slim women can have curves too! That's why we can't just shop the same styles as teens and tweenies!

  • @DrearSkaa I'm also tired of people thinking petite just means skinny.

  • yeah, shopping for my size can be really tough as hell...

  • i agree! if ur petite (small boned, short, and don't weigh much) but ur not really skinny and u do have some curves, it's kinda hard. i mean when ur short and xtremely skinny u get like a 0 or something. but if ur not, then it's like do you wear jr. sizes or petite or women or what?

  • this was TOO long.you should have written it down then read it to us.

  • This is a great thing . Petites are so much hotter than big women!

  • No kidding, we're much much hotter ;)

  • Look at Vida Guerra google search results for example? She's far more famous than Adriana Lima promoted by Victoria's secret.

  • i kno ppl are always tellin me how cute and little i am. i kno plenty of big, attractive women, but idk i guess somewhat small ppl are adorable and cuddly. some big women (not all) are scary 2 me

  • Big women knocked the doors down and are now on runways. It's long over due for petites.

  • yea we're just not all nig and intimidating. we're filled out in the rite places abd everything

  • sry i meant to say big and intimidating and places and everything

  • Awesome! Join us in our efforts.

  • Great concept. Most videos include some pictures, though. Maybe you could show average women trying on those ridiculous size 3 jeans. Or maybe add music.
