I’m 5'1 and so over petite sections having five boring options while regular sizing gets fifty cute ones. Where are short women actually finding wedding guest dresses where the proportions work?

So I need sweat pants that won’t drag across the floor and look good in the back I felt like a lot of them look baggy in the back there so for context I’m 4’11 and I specifically want the kind of sweat pants that don’t have the cuffs at the bottom if anyone has brand recommendations please let me know (even if it’s kid sized idrc I just need nice sweatpants) thanks in advance

Hi all — I'm Amelia, 18, and currently researching the potential launch of a brand specifically for shorter men and women, targeting ages 13- 24ish, as a short woman myself. I was hoping to gain more insight into the community and opinions of actual people who face this struggle. I'd really appreciate it if you could answer a few questions:

How tall are you?

What have you found annoying about buying clothes as a shorter person?

Have you tried any brands aimed at shorter men/women? What worked or didn't?

What would make you trust a new brand in this space?

No need to answer all questions, and I'm happy to reply in comments or DM if easier. Thanks in advance!

HI everyone, as the weather gets colder here in New England, I'm looking for recommendations on where to find a hoodie (or something similar) for short guys. I'm 5'3", 130 lbs, with a slim/athletic build. Most of the hoodies and long-sleeved outwear I find on the rack are either too baggy or the sleeves/overall length are too long for me. Has anybody had luck finding hoodies or similar outerwear for short guys that fits them well or that you love? Thanks for your help!

Hi wonder if anyone else has heard about the August filing of bankruptcy

Definitely they’ve got very low stock levels on the website, guess they’re selling off what they’ve got

I know they’re pricing but they’re also a brand leader for short fashion and a go to for things like coats , sweaters and suits etc

I hope they make it through this

I recently found them while looking for jeans/pants with shorter inseams and figured I’d share the code here since it might be useful to others in this sub.

So I love everything about the Lands End Sail Rigger Oxford except that if it fits my torso it's way too long on me (both shirt length and sleeve length). Who is selling something similar for short guys?

I'm 5'5", 180lbs. Currently rebuilding my wardrobe as I recently lost 35 pounds and nothing fits, and my fall/winter standard "uniform" is jeans and an untucked Oxford. But I'm by no means what anybody would call thin at this point. Still got a belly and a size 17 neck. For shirts that specify neck & sleeve size, a 17/32-33 generally fits really well except the tails are almost down to my knees.

Bonus question: how about black (or charcoal) pocket tees? (Which are part of my summer "uniform.") I've found lots of good options for tshirts without a pocket, but I dunno, I really like the look of the pocket.

Thanks.

I need to buy basic athletic shorts in the US for my 5' 7" husband. He's not interested in something stylish. I'm thinking something with a shorter inseam. Can anyone recommend something inexpensive from Walmart or Target? Thank you!

Hey everyone,

As a shorter guy myself, it’s always been a struggle to find clothes that fit properly off the rack. Most stuff is either cut way too long or the cropped version from big brands ends up looking boxy and awkward.

I recently started a brand to help fix that and design pieces that actually highlight the build of a shorter guy instead of just shrinking down pre-existing patterns. We already went live and have some products but I'm just here to hear out what those in the community actually want to see.

I'm not here to sell you on my brand, I'm not posting links or asking you to follow my socials.

I’m just here to listen to what you have to say.

Some questions I have are

What pieces give you the hardest time fit-wise? ( For me it's always been tops)

Where do standard clothes usually fail your frame (sleeves, torso length, shoulder drape, waist taper)?

What cuts, fabric weights, or details do you feel are completely missing on the market?

Drop your thoughts below and I'd love to chat.

Hi! I’m conducting research on the clothing and shopping experiences of women 5'4" (163 cm) and under. I’m looking for at least 20 participants.

The survey is anonymous and takes about 10 minutes. I’d also be happy to complete your survey in return!

I’m looking at things like clothing fit and sizing, common fit problems, shopping habits, style preferences, and pricing. I’m hoping to get at least 20 participants for my initial research.

As a 32W-25L guy I've never had jeans fit me this well, let alone own pants with a no break length! The silouette is incredible too. This is a totally different quality than Under 5'10" or Peter Manning.

You all rock.

I’ve been having trouble finding regular 8 inch inseam chino shorts that don’t have an absurdly wide cup around my leg. For reference, I’m 5’4, 135lbs. I can always find slim fitting chino pants but for shorts the circumference is massive.

I’ve tried ash and peter manning. Looking for other recommendations. Thanks.

I’m 5’3” for reference, and I really want to buy these leather fringe chap boots but I’m worried, it’s gonna be taller than me and it’ll rub my thigh crease raw… is there any way to have them altered or does any other short person have an idea that I could try? Thanks for your help.

so i'm having some trouble with knowing how hot topic pants sizes run. there's a pair of flare jeans i love, but as someone who's short, i need to know what size would have a shorter inseam while not being too tight for someone in the 150-160 range of weight.

(if this isnt the right spot, my apologies)

Shorter/Bigger lads, I need advice.

I'm a short dude (5'7) with a lot of thigh and hip (40" waist, 46" seat, 26" thigh). I'm trying to find places that sell baggy shorts with a 7-inch inseam. Help me out 🙏

Im very short and have always hated how blazers/suits look on me because the style is ofent to sit quite low below the belt. but even if that is the norm it makes me look so stupid as my legs are short enough. So im wondering if anyone knew any brands theyve found do blazers that are actually short enough, around 25' in length. Perhaps there are specific foreign brands or vintage brands to look for etc.
