Please help me find a biker-style jacket - petite length and suitable for curves

When I bought one years ago, I happened to get lucky with a random one from H&M, but no such luck this time. It's falling apart now, and I've gained weight anyway.

This is what I need:

  • Petite length - I'm 5ft 1, so no "try this shop, it comes up small" (it really doesn't), and no three quarter length/cropped jackets as the sleeves will still be too long
  • Probably a size 12
  • Not leather
  • The most important thing - it needs to go in at the waist, and hopefully have a certain amount of bust allowance, or have some kind of stretch or something? No "boxy" cuts. I've tried on about five jackets so far and they all look terrible as they're so shapeless. I'm sure I'll be wearing the jacket open most of the time, but it still needs to fit properly.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, especially if you've bought one this year and it's something that's still available.

I found a petite fuller bust jacket at Next, but they only have a size 8 left which will definitely be far too small. www.next.co.uk/style/st634145/400781#400781

Does anyone else make petite fuller bust clothing?
