J.Crew review

J.Crew is a good fit for petite women who like ankle-length and slim-wide shapes in a polished style. Its petite jeans page listed 15 styles when we checked, led by the Everyday wide-leg ankle jean and several slim-wide jeans, including a super-stretch version at $148 and a full-length slim-wide. J.Crew's own guide says petite jeans typically have inseams from 25 to 30 inches and adjust the rise, waist and overall proportions for a shorter frame. Full prices run from $148 to $168, but sales are common: the $158 Everyday wide-leg ankle jean in rigid denim was $89.99. The smaller range is the main drawback, and the petite page we checked did not show each product's petite inseam, so you need the product size chart. J.Crew's petite sizing extends to pants, dresses and coats, which helps if you buy most of your wardrobe in one place.
