Cropped or fitted denim jacket

Hi, I’m a petite and need a new denim jacket. I’ve currently got the Levi’s trucker but feels it’s a bit big. I’m only a size 6-8 and think either a cropped denim jacket or a more fitted style would suit me best - mainly to wear over summer dresses.
any suggestions??
thanks 😊

Sorry, I’m 39 years old if that makes any difference too

I vote for cropped. I'm short too, and I think they're really flattering and look great with dresses as well as trouser outfits.

Following this for suggestions, I'm not petite (very much the opposite) but also on the hunt for the perfect cropped denim jacket.

Sorry, just realised you said petite, not short!
I still think cropped jackets are more versatile.

Get on Vinted if you are happy to buy second hand. I got a lovely one for about £6

Thanks - I am short too 😂

I bought an XS one from Mango for my 9 yr old. It’s loose on her but nicely fitted on me. Length hits at top of hip.

Cropped but not tight and fitted, the look is more oversized

I am petite but a bigger size than you. I buy pretty much everything in petite ranges, but I’ve just bought an M&S white denim jacket and it is perfect. This is it - lots of colours www.marksandspencer.com/denim-jacket-with-stretch/p/clp60490922?intid=mobile_app_pdp_share

Cropped!

Cropped definitely and M&S actually do some really nice ones
