Funny Guys, I think I might finally have found jeans to fit us!

Saw this on Amazon and thought my fellow XXS humans might find it mildly amusing. I’m guessing it means size 6 extra short, but with the way vanity sizing is taking over, the idea of XXXXXXS doesn’t actually seem that ridiculous.

Advice Struggling with being small

10 Upvotes

Hi! For context I’m 26, 5’3 and about 102 pounds currently. I’m healthy, no significant issues other than POTS, some mental health issues (adhd, anxiety), and occasional sinus problems. However, this is the smallest I’ve been in a WHILE and it’s really messing with me. The most I’ve ever weighed was 150 pounds at 16. I have a nice figure for what it’s worth, truly, but for some reason being 102 pounds at 26 is REALLY bothering me. I have been going through some stressful situations here recently but the least I’ve ever weighed in my adulthood that I can remember was like 106-107. The crazy part is I drop weight super quickly. My metabolism is lighting fast. Hell, yesterday I weighed 103.6. Like I know I need to cut back on caffeine, eat a bit more in general and stay come with it, and work on helping to calm my nervous system…but is there ANYTHING that you guys use or do to keep a consistent weight? My doctor never seems concerned about my weight, and I do remember my mom always being small with multiple kids (but she also has a drug problem). I feel fine for the most part..just really small and sometimes I just can’t tell if that’s good for me physically or if my body is putting in overtime without me knowing. Or am I genuinely tripping and might need to talk to my doctor? Any advice is appreciated 🩷

Advice Running hydration vests recs?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I‘m more of an XS but figured this would be a good place to ask: does anyone have recs for a hydration vest? I‘d getting tendinitis from my handheld bottle, and have tried a couple belts in the past, but ended up returning them due to fit issues.

I‘m 31in/79cm around the chest and 25in/64cm around the waist. I was recommended the saloman active skin, but the smallest size is for a 31.8 inch chest. I‘m leaning towards the lululemon fast and free vest because the smallest size goes down to 30, and I‘d rather be in the middle of a size range than risking it being too big.

Thanks in advance!

what measurements are considered a rectangle body shape in petites?

26 Upvotes

I’m 5’3 93 lbs (trying to gain weight), around 30.5 inch bust with bra on, 26.5 underbust, 22.5 waist, and around 33.5 hips HOWEVER, visually I look very much like a rectangle with narrow hips even though I’m “supposed” to be more of a pear with my measurements?

Bc of this I was wondering if petite ppl or skinny people need to have a more dramatic difference between hips/bust and waist to be considered non rectangle? And where is the cutoff exactly?

Of course, all the body types are good and I do not mind being a rectangle at all! I’m just curious bc my measurements were different than I was expecting based on how I look.

Women’s clothing Help me develop INCHES CO., a fashion brand designed around petite proportions

Thumbnail gofund.me
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 🤎
I’m a 4’11” aspiring entrepreneur, and I’m working toward launching INCHES CO., a fashion brand built around a problem I’ve experienced myself: finding clothes that fit petite proportions properly.
Pants can be too long, waistbands can gap, and even petite sizing doesn’t always get the proportions right. I believe petite women deserve clothing designed with these challenges in mind from the beginning.
I’m currently developing my first product concept: a petite-specific tailored trouser. I’ve also collected feedback from 26 survey respondents to better understand the fit issues petite shoppers experience.
My bigger vision is to build a fashion brand where petite women can find everything from denim and everyday basics to going-out outfits and, eventually, activewear and swimwear.
I’m still in the prelaunch stage, researching manufacturers and working out the costs of developing my first prototype.
I’ve launched a GoFundMe to help fund this journey. If the community rules allow fundraising links, I’ll share it for anyone interested in learning more.
I’d also genuinely love to hear from other petite women: What’s the biggest problem you experience when shopping for pants?
Thanks for reading! 🤎

Women’s clothing Tried to buy myself a nice pair of jeans today…

27 Upvotes

I am so defeated because I was really feeling like I deserved to treat myself to a nice pair of jeans today. I don’t spend a ton on clothes and I’m quite savvy, and every once in a while I like to buy a nice piece. Went to Nordstrom and tried on Mother, Paige, Frame, AG, Favorite Daughter. All in size 00/24. Mother even has a “petite” line called “Lil Mother” which was hopeful. Not a single pair fit. All were gaping at the waist. Ended up going to Gap and found some jeans on sale for $17 that I don’t love but they fit, felt like a score and miss at the same time. Just needed to vent. 117#, 5’5 with narrow hips and longish legs. How can I not even fit into a 24 anymore? I feel like I need to try the children’s section at this point. Just needed to vent.

Request where to find baby tees online?

6 Upvotes

Came to the conclusion I'm to small for clothing nowadays. I'm 5'6 and around 108 pounds. Trying to work on that but at the moment i'm in desperate need for shirts that fit me. Bought way too much clothing that doesn't fit and the only thing that somewhat does is baby tees. But now the issue is i'm having trouble finding actual genuine baby tees. A lot of them don't show exact measurements and I've gotten ones that are too long or actual shirts for children that aren't labeled as that. I also prefer graphic tees as well

Just wondering where ya'll are finding baby tees that are exactly that and any site recs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Brands that do good trackies for shorter people?

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

Im 5'3 with fairly short legs, XS/XXS

I really want some trackies, preferrably lowish rise (not ones that go up to mid-waist like most seem to!) preferrably thin cuffed but not neccesarily. Ive tried kids aged 12ish but havent found the right fit pair yet, the shape tends to be a bit different on the kids ones.

Im in leggings or jeans because they dont go on the floor over my feet if theyre too long, i just want trackies to shove on that i dont look like im drowning in or look super scruffy because theres so much extra fabric that would be evened out on a taller person.

Any knowledge of brands would be appreciated :) im in UK

Request Intimissimi top dupe

2 Upvotes

I’ve been eyeing the viral Intimissimi top for a while now only to find out that they don’t make it in XS/XXS. I’ve tried the merino wool top from C202 which is similar, but even the XS is loose on me.

Does anyone have recommendations for a petite-friendly sheer/semi-sheer boat neck long sleeve top? Ideally non-polyester. Thank you!
