As my fellow petite women know, being on the shorter side definitely has its challenges. But while I've always embraced my 5'2" status, it's undeniably affected my fashion game. I've learned that baggy styles tend to swallow me whole (I'm looking at you, wide-leg pants), regular-length skirts and dresses are a hard no, and a good tailor is your best friend.
I've also learned the value of shopping petite-specific clothing, and Banana Republic has one of the most impressive petite collections I've seen. From suits to dresses to tank tops, finding pieces created for smaller proportions is a game changer. Ahead, find petite items from Banana Republic that are sure to become instant closet favourites — no tailor required!
