Petite gals - where do you buy your pants?

Yup, came here to say the A&F extra short option (their pants and jeans).

Aritzia's petite is good too, although one millimeter longer and most of the trousers would be too long on me at 5'3".

For jeans, I'm also having a lot of luck these days just buying "cropped" styles.

Look at Jean Wang’s / Extra Petite blog /insta for suggestions. She is 5’ I think. I find Her overall fashion super boring but fine for the basic wardrobe staples.

I was in Uniqlo yesterday and a sign in the dressing room said they shorten pants for $5!

I started a subscription box with The Short Story. So far the sizing has been pretty good. I've kept at least 1 item from each box and at least 3 of the items were jeans/pants.


Same height and so far I’ve gotten two boxes from Short Story. I kept everything from the first one and about half of the second.

Nic & Zoe petites. Sign up for emails and shop with discount codes. Their clothing is nice quality and pants fit me well. I'm 5'3" with hips and need curvy fits.

I just got a petite dress from that brand - it's really nice.

I get a lot of pants from Madewell. Their cropped styles are usually regular length for me. Their petite jeans sometimes are the right length and sometimes still need to be shortened a little.

Thank you petite friends!! You have saved me a lot of headache and gadzillion hours of returns. Some of these stores are completely new to me and I had no idea there was an extra short option at any place. -OP

Sometimes I buy pants that are meant to be cropped or capri and it's regular length on me.

A&F's sloane pant in extra short is one of my favorite pants that I have ever purchased (particularly given the price point). They are the perfect amount of slightly, but not too, wide. It looks like they are sold out of the extra short in truly every color (wow!), but keep an eye out for restocks-- these are FANTASTIC.
