Hey, QVC!  What is going on with longer pant lengths???  I am a petite and anything longer than 27 inches on me has to go to the tailor!!  If people think that you need to lengthen pants, then they need to not order petites, but order regulars instead. I do not enjoy paying an exorbitant amount for a pair of pants that I have to look forward to sending to the tailor right out of the package!

I need petite pants with a 28 or 29 inch inseam.

I am only 5' 2" but still need a 29 inseam.

Depends on the type of pant.  Straight leg or leggings I need 25 or 26.  For full cut pants or boot leg 28 or 29 with heels works for me at 5'. It depends on how long your legs are.

I've always loved Susan Graver's petite pants - they fit me perfectly.  Recently though they've been too long.  I took the last pair to the tailor to be shortened - it was going to be 6 weeks before I'd get them back plus I had to put down a $10 deposit.  I can't imagine what the hemming will costl.  No more "too long" pants for me.

Not everyone is petite.  I'm 5'9 and appreciate the long lengths.

I'm also 5' 9" and appreciate the long lengths.  Guess they need to sell in different lengths for everyone.

QVC's petite clothing is not sized correctly.

A person who is average or tall should not be able to wear petite sizes.  The rise, crotch area, should be way too short to fit them.

I suggest petite shoppers try Appleseed's clothing.  They sell genuine petite length pants, plus they also sell extra short petite pants for those under 5'.

Sign up for their e-mail and join their club.  They send gift certificates free throughout the year by e-mail and US mail.

You also can earn points to cash in for spending on their site.  I often get clothing for really low prices when it is on sale, using my points and gift certificates.

Just this week, I got $50 off of my order.  My clothing was almost free.

Shop smart and stop paying to shorten pants.  Go elsewhere.

I'm 5-2 and some ankle and crop pants fit like regular-length pants on me. So I look at those types of pants and check inseams.

I'm 5'4" and would love to see more 30" inseams.  28 works okay for summer with sandals, but not for cooler months with shoes/ boots.
