Petite womens outerwear provides good protection from rain and cold weather. Women who require petite clothing often search for outerwear that does not need altering. Most outerwear can be challenging to shorten, especially lined coats and jackets. Sleeves that are too long or coats that need shortening can add significantly to the cost of an item, so finding petite womens outerwear is the solution for shorter women. Sleeve alterations are difficult, even for accomplished tailors.

Sleeves that are too long can be uncomfortable to wear, especially with mittens or gloves. The sleeves can bunch up, making it challenging to drive or perform tasks. Lengthy sleeves also soil more easily, since they drag on surfaces, picking up dust, skin oils and dirt. Hem length with outerwear is not nearly as critical as the sleeves are, so finding jackets, coats and slickers that fit perfectly is something that petite women value.

Casual outerwear often comes with sleeves that have elastic in them, making it easy to bunch up on the wrists, but coats may not offer the convenience of push-up sleeves, making the hunt for petite womens outerwear a challenge for many women. Women with wardrobe challenges like being short or having narrow feet are often willing to pay retail price for petite womens outwear or for shoes that fit. When the find the clothes or shoes on sale, it is often a pleasant surprise for them and they stock up on the items they need at bargain prices.

Buying petite womens outerwear in neutral colors is a safe and conservative way to build a collection of coats and jackets that may go with everything, but sometimes it is nice to buy outwear that is brightly colored for cold, damp days. The extra color can help improve an attitude, an easy way to cope with long periods of cold and cloudy weather. Women can also add long, colorful scarves to their neutral outerwear to create a colorful look.
