[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Petite for clothing means shorter limbs Petite when describing someone usually means tiny person [/quote] This, though many people don't understand the two meanings. I worked with a woman who was 5'2" and would freak out if the word petite was applied to a woman or girl taller than her because she thought it was a technical sizing term only. I explained to her that the word petite literally just means "small" in French and she dug in. For some reason it was important to her that the term belong to her. I did not get it.[/quote]
