[quote=Anonymous]In most brands, a size 10p has width (bust, waist and hip) measurements of an 8 misses. The inseam is not the only thing that is shorter. The rise (distance from crotch to waist) is also shorter. And the distance from shoulder to waist is also shorter. The neckline is usually a bit higher and the armholes might be a bit smaller/higher, too. Supposedly the height cut-off for petite is 5'3". I am 5'5" and frequently wear petite dresses and tops, as I'm short in the torso. My inseam is 31" (not really short), but I sometimes will wear petite, short or ankle pants because i don't wear the sky high heels that designers seem to think all women wear.[/quote]
