Never hear if the clothing are and I hate tunics. Oh well!

I have been begging for more Petite offerings especially in tops (sweaters, knit tops, blouses, etc.).  Pants are often offered in Petite, but rarely tops with the exception of a tunic length top here and there but not always.  Stopped ordering tops for the most part.

Amen! I don't need petite pants but I need petite in tops! I'm 5'2 but it's mostly legs...

And petite models modeling petite pants without wearing high heels.

Most of the Q's petite models are 5'2" and 5'3". To me that's tall.

@halfpint1  JJill sells petites and so does Nordstrom.  Check it out.

What I find a little silly is that they put petite pants on the petite models with long legs that don't really need them so the ankle pant is actually halfway up their calf! LOL what's the point?

QVC certainly does not cater to petites.  Anything that has long sleeves in regular sizes is too long for my arms.  There are so many sources of clothing that offer petites, so QVC has lost most of my business.  I got sick of complaining.

Unless it was only a dream.....a very very long time ago, the Q actually had a petite line on air but it only lasted a couple of shows, possibly only one. I think the line was called Petite Sophisticates.

I'm only 4'10" (shrunk 2" from old age) and I have short arms. Petite tops would be too small for me as I'm full chested. If the sleeves are a little long, I just push them up - or fold up the cuff. I also like 3/4 sleeve tops.

Today, women are a lot taller than in my generation - so there probably isn't much demand for petites.
