Petite Clothing Brand for Extra-Petite and Petite Women

No, the length of the garments is the biggest difference. However, all the garment measurements are modified for their respective height range, such as neck to waist, armhole, shoulder width, sleeve length, inseams, etc.

The garment should fit you more or less the same as the petite model in the images no matter which height range you fall into.

Yes, we conduct regular tests on our garments using bodies of varying sizes and heights within each height range to guarantee that the garments fit and are graded accurately. 

However, please be aware of your body proportions as we cannot be held responsible if the garment does not fit you in your height range due to your unique body proportions.

For example, you may be 4'11/ 1.49m tall (Extra-Petite) and have a long torso and arms where Petite clothing (tops & fitted dresses) may be suitable for you and shorter legs where extra-petite trousers may fit you better.

When taking your total body height and other measurements, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

• Remove your shoes before measuring yourself.
• Do not include the height of your hair in your total height measurement.
• Ensure your measurements are accurate, as we cannot be responsible for sizing issues caused by incorrect height assumptions (e.g., thinking you are taller or shorter, or rounding off your measurements.)

The House of Arti is a fairly new petite clothing brand that produces a limited number of units for selected styles per collection. The pre-order threshold gives us an indication of how many units to order per style. This approach helps us reduce garment waste, and we only reproduce items that are guaranteed to sell out. The estimated pre-order timeframe is approximately 4-8 weeks, which is the best possible timeframe given to us by our manufacturers for the garments to be shipped out to you. We truly appreciate your patience in waiting for our unique pieces that are only available to a few petite and extra-petite women around the world.

At House of Arti, we prioritise quality and fit above everything else.

Our petite and extra-petite garments are beautifully made by skilled artisans who understand quality and our unique sizing requirements.

Secondly, we value sustainable textiles and ethical manufacturing methods, ensuring that everyone involved in the process is paid fairly.

Lastly, we have developed custom garment blocks that only our skilled manufacturing teams can understand. These unique blocks allow our customers to shop for garments based on their size and height range.

Our petite clothing line is sourced from various locations around the world, including China, Spain, Italy, and India, depending on the specific textile or craft we require. Our top priority is to work with skilled artisans and manufacturers who uphold ethical standards in their respective fields. They also assist us in sourcing the finest sustainable textiles and fabrics.
