Boot-Cut and Flare Pants please.  Also, Petites Inseam in 26"27". QVC has been offering a lot in 28" and above for Petites that is too long.  Boot-Cut and Flare Pants I think are more complimentary to the body.

I love crop pants and so do many others.  I never liked wearing shorts - they're a great alternative in warm weather.

I used to think so too..that full length flare pants (jeans for instance) were more flattering.

But I want to add here, that yesterday when I was with the grands, my little DGD, who is 10 now and oh so fashionable (diva)

complimented me on my crops! And so I felt quite fashionable also!

I am 5' tall. I found a good independent tailor to hem my pants. It's just a part of life, not life or death.

 

I like ankle pants. A lot of them are 27" in regular sizes and petite sizes are even shorter. I used to be a lot heavier and plus sizes are sometimes shorter than regular sizes.

 

High waisted pants go up to my bra so they are a big no for me too. 

 

Flare, wide legs, boot cuts make me look shorter and wider so I don't buy those either.

 

Designers and manufacturers make what is the most widely purchased and profitable. Making a wider range of petite sizes, inseams, etc, will never fit in their cost/benefit analysis.

 

I can whine, and I have, but know a perfect fit is rare.

Adding to my last post.

 

I quit wearing clothes others like or think I look good in and what I had to wear as an executivewhen I retired. Now, I wear what I feel good in and what I want. I wish I'd made this change a long time ago.

 

I wear 9-10" inseam shorts and cropped/capri pants as soon as it starts warming up until it's too cold to wear them.

Depends on the body.

@Catastrophe - it does - I'm petite but my legs are long-ish for my height so I can wear a longer inseam.  And I love boot cut pants.

@Catastrophe Bootcut and flares may be more complimentary to YOUR body (and others), but not to everyone. We need all the different choices QVC offers so that everyone, no matter their shape/taste, can find something they like.
