Shopping small may seem like an easy task, but getting the fit right stretches far beyond the size tag — particularly in the dress department. Luckily Banana Republic has taken the guesswork out of much of it with its petite collection.
Not only is the cut important, but proportion matters too. Even with smaller frames, body shapes vary dramatically. Good thing is that you have options. From A-lines to sheaths and midi cuts, there's guaranteed a Banana Republic petite dress with your name on it.
