Petite clothing brands that actually fit small frames

28 replies

Just wondering if anyone can suggest some good-quality brands that do a decent petite fit? I'm 5' and small-framed and even when I buy petite I often find things swamp me. The places I tend to look are Boden, Hobbs or Seasalt but often the cut just hasn't been adjusted properly and even the petite looks huge. What do other people do? I've been trying to find a linen jumpsuit but my last three attempts to buy something have been unsuccessful. Thanks all!

I hate that petite is only taken into account in terms of height.

I'm 5ft1 and I shop at:

Sezane
Mint velvet for petite jeans
Levi jeans
Whistles
Mango (brought 3 dresses from there recently which are perfect maxi length on me)
Boden
Nobodys child
Hush
Reiss
Next- very rarely
