Petite clothes in peri friendly materials

[Sleepeazie]

I’ve been struggling with over-heating and back sweating for a few years now.

I’m 44, and it’s now at the point where I actually avoid wearing my pretty viscose dresses as once I start to overheat, the material touching my skin just increases the urge (…and I want to rip my skin off!)

I would like some fashionable, age appropriate (I don’t want to wear shapeless tunics) clothes, suitable for a petite (but curvy) size 12, in materials like bamboo, cotton and linen.

I avoid most trousers and nearly all jeans as I have a mum tum. I usually wear skater skirts and tee shirts or midi/maxi dresses as I have a good bust and narrow shoulders so they flatter.

I’d love recommendations of clothing pieces or retailers who might suit me and my new fashion needs.

Thanks for any advice

Seasalt. Lots of cotton, you have to be selective but some of it should work.

Boden I think also

Thanks @theduchessofspork ill take a look now 😊

I use next and filter for petite. I have had some success with pixiegirl <cringe> and m&co but you have to wade through a lot to find it.
How tall are you? I am 5ft but still find some standard stuff ok, it's mostly tops I struggle with, everything is very oversized at the moment. I don't wear dresses, but imagine they are a pain too.

I've managed to find some petite cotton dresses from Nobody's Child.
