Whatever your look is: relaxed and sporty; classic and feminine; or full on glamour the clever people at Bhs Petites have translated these aspirations into wearable fashion for Spring/Summer 08!

 

Take the relaxed attitude of these pretty, casual pieces pictured above.  The ivory cutwork top is a flattering style for any petite shape, with detailing that is completely in proportion.  Worn with cropped jeans, it's a great weekend or holiday look.

 

Classic femininity is evoked by the look Bhs's call Deauville.   Inspired by romantic 1940s styles and the monochrome palette of Forties movies, these pieces can be crisp and formal or soft and floaty.  Take the pretty outfit below. The jersey top and belted straight legged trousers will dress up or down depending on how you style the look.  Petite Personal Shopper recommends playing with accessories - scarves and jewellery especially - to make the look fun and young, or stylish and sophisticated, depending on your mood.

Nothing says glamour quite like animal print!  This animal print blouse brings catwalk style to petite sizing!  Bhs call this look Modern Safari, a theme that includes pieces in a natural palette of Earth colours.  It's styled here with straight leg trousers, but it's a piece that would look fabulous with jeans too.

 

Bhs Petite is a collection designed to fit the petite figure perfectly, but unlike some other labels, plus sized petites are not forgotten, as the size range runs from 8-20.  It's also great value for well chosen, wearable clothes.  You can find Bhs Petite in Bhs stores and online.  Just click the Bhs logo on this page, or the link on our Clothes Links page to take a look at the collection for yourself.
