I am 43 years of age and I am 4 foot 11 inch and I have very small hips 30 to 31 inches and a 24 inch waist and I find it physically impossible to get clothes to fit me. Petite sized clothes are too expensive and they are too big so I end up having to wear junior sized clothes. Even the smallest size are too big. Shopping is a nightmare for me as all women's clothes are too big.
