  4. How tall is a petite woman. By standard, American and European petite women are much taller than Asian counterpart. Does it mean a different design of prom dresses for Asian ladies? http://www.papalengtraveladventure.com/

  5. Just my two cents : petite women should shy away from ballgown style dresses. It just adds to the bulk horizontally instead of giving the illusion of leaner, longer look.
