Seen any around? Non petite ones are always too long on the sleeves.

Topshop have one online at the moment. Has 3/4 sleeves and is open fronted.

That looks like a good candidate thank you scarlet. A bit cheeky of TopShop to charge to deliver to one of their shops though!

I had a couple of TS jersey blazers last year and loved them, but they wore very badly, covered in bobbles. I wouldn't buy one again. IME TS is overpriced for the quality.

Agree about shop delivery charge Early!
I don't have the blazer so can't comment on quality.
ASOS also do petite and have some blazers.
I have a wool blazer from the winter Boden petite range and the cut and quality are excellent but was more expensive than TS !

I also have a wool blazer from Boden's petite range and it's excellent, perfect cut and fit. It's 3 years old and it still looks like new!

What about trying the kids range in Zara? I ordered a blazer for my daughter from there and it fits me. I think I ordered an age 13

I don't usually find teenage clothes suitable as I'm also curvy despite being a size 8. I want somethings that fits well around the body, a womans body, not just for the sleeves not to be too long.

Hush sometimes have jersey blazers, but don't know how short the sleeves would be.

Zara have some nice blazers in at the moment. They're not petite, but i am only 5ft and got one yesterday and it fits really well - they seem to be made for smaller people. It even fitted well in the shoulders (the bit i struggle with most). The sleeves need turning up a bit but the one i bought has a tartan lining so they look fine turned up a bit. I tried on a petite Topshop blazer and i have to say the cut wasn't great and it did feel a bit cheap. The Zara blazer was only £2 more and significantly better quality.
