As a 5-foot, 3-inch petite shopper, I know the struggle of trying to find denim that I don’t have to cuff at the bottom, dresses that don’t overwhelm my stature or workout leggings that don’t create rolls at my ankles. Even some of my favorite pieces in my closet didn’t start that way — I’ve had to alter countless garments to get them to fit my body properly. This constant dilemma has forced me to master the art of shopping for a petite frame and keep a list of all the best places to shop, so I don’t fret whenever I want to add new pieces to my wardrobe.
For those who know the feeling just as well, I’m sharing my list, which considers different budgets, garment types, and styles, so you never need to fuss with too-long hems again. Find them, ahead.

Petite Studio NYC
You can probably already tell by the name of this brand, but Petite Studio is another one of our favorites for petite pieces. Its pieces are fashion-forward but classic, with a spring collection that includes a trouser and vest set, a long denim skirt, and a knee-length romper — for petite figures only. That’s right, every single piece is made explicitly for petite shoppers, so we can enjoy sleek, trendy styles without any added frustration from things fitting improperly and the need for major alterations.
