Petite trousers and wireless bras?

6 replies

I'm looking for some petite jeans or trousers that are not skinny fit or high waisted. I'm petite and thin so I think I look silly in these! I'm in my 20s.

I'm also finding it hard finding a new wireless bra. I don't want a full cup and I have enough crop top styles. I'm a small size so that makes it more difficult.

Please help! I'd really appreciate it 😊

Matalan and Newlook have a good petite range. I'm 5'3 and all the trousers, skirts and dresses fit well.

M&S have a good range of wireless bras. I've also had a few from Matalan and George however, the M&S are much better quality.

I've got wireless bras from Asda and Tesco. I'm a 30c/d

I've found that New Look and River Island trousers have increased the waist band in some of their trousers styles that I've tried recently. I didn't even think of Matalan! Not sure if they have size 6 but I'll look. I'll have to look at those other shops for bras because they'll be reasonably priced. Thanks!

We're a similar size! I'm a 28dd or 30d so I'll check out Asda and Tesco. Thank you!

It's so hard to find smaller sizes now. Even shops that do a size 6 they're not actually a size 6, more and 8-10. Everything is so oversized now. Have you tried Next? They do a petite range.

You're right! I'm a few months postpartum so wanted to treat myself to some new trousers and jeans. My pre pregnancy jeans fit me (bought them years ago) but the new size 6 ones (no size 4 in store) were too wide. I'll have a look at Next!
