Petite Tops FAQs

What defines a woman's top as petite?

Petite tops for women are specifically designed to fit the unique proportions of women 5'4" or under. These tops are made with precise measurements to ensure they fit petite women perfectly. Shorter torso lengths, modified sleeve lengths, and altered necklines are all special elements that make a difference in women's petite clothing.

At WHBM, you’ll find a wide variety of work tops and going out tops made for petite women of all shapes and sizes.

How should a petite top fit?

Petite tops should fit like regular-sized tops–snugly in the bodice with long sleeves that sit at your wrist, short sleeves that reach your mid-bicep, and a neckline that accentuates your body. WHBM offers an array of women’s tees and blouses that make you feel powerful and beautiful in your petite top, no matter the style or design. Plus, with sizes ranging from XXSP (00P) to XLP (18P), we make it easy to find a petite top that fits just right.

At WHBM, you’ll find a diverse selection of women’s petite tops suitable for the office and corporate workplaces. Styles such as button-downs, ruffled blouses, and modest tops are classic choices that can be worn comfortably and confidently at the office.

What are some casual styles for petite tops?

Casual petite tops include tees, tank tops, long and short sleeve shirts, and tunics. Each style provides a unique look, versatility, and comfort. One of the benefits of casual petite tops is that they can be dressed up if necessary. Incorporating a statement necklace, a tailored denim jacket, or a pair of slacks and heels to your look can help take your top to the next level.

How can I style petite tops for different seasons?

Due to their versatility, petite tops can be styled for any season, regardless of the weather or occasion. During warmer months, choose women’s petite blouses designed with lightweight, breathable fabrics and consider halter or sleeveless styles. When it’s cold, you can layer your petite tops with sweaters, upscale coats, and accessories like scarves and beanies.
