Summary

ASH&ERIE

This American brand specializes in clothing for short people.

Ash&Erie offers a collection of men's wardrobe basics (jeans, shirts, t-shirts) available in short lengths, with XS and slim fit.

The brand delivers to France and offers an option to pay additional import costs (customs, VAT) when purchasing, so as not to have any unpleasant surprises upon receipt.

The illustration in their “ fit guide ” is quite telling about the cuts offered:

The offer is complete, the style is sober, the materials correct, the size guide well provided, and Peter Manning also offers delivery in France .

A brand to consider for petite people.

Peter Manning has the advantage of offering a more complete offering than Ash&Erie, including suits, oiled jackets such as a women's range including the classic Iron Rangers and Moc Toe

    OTHER OPTIONS

    1. GO TO WOMEN’S FASHION

    Yes, it is possible to go to women's clothing by targeting basic, unisex clothing.

    The first example that comes to mind concerns the basic plain sweater, round neck:

    You obviously have to sort and generally look for clothes with the most sober design possible.

    But there are some good things to be had, certainly. The offer for women is very wide.

    Here is a small list of brands whose women's collections might interest you:

    1. Arket
    2. From Future
    3. Hircus
    4. Trousers
    5. Norse Projects
    6. Seagale
    7. Knitting Paris

    2. GO TO CHILDREN’S FASHION?

    Yes, this is an option for really very short and thin people.

    There is of course some sorting to be done, but sizes 14 or 16 years old will roughly correspond to adult XXS or 3XS in comparison.

    For example, you can look at the following brands:

    1. Ralph Lauren
    2. Silver
    3. Uniqlo
    Uniqlo 100% wool Silbon blazer

    Silbon blazer 100% wool, available up to size 14 years

    3. HALF-MEASURE (“CUSTOMIZED”)

    Of course, having half-measure clothes made is also a valid solution if you have a very specific need or you really can't find things that fit you properly, even among the brands offered here.

    On this subject, you will find here:

    Here are some brands we recommend:

    1. Measurement Workshop
    2. Collar
    3. Cotton Society
    4. Husbands
    5. Lanieri
    6. Scavini

    SOME INSPIRATIONS

    To finish, here are some successful looks for short and thin men.

    Look at how the cuts are, especially on the length of the sleeves and the bottom of the pants. It is crucial that your clothes are the right length so as not to compress your figure.

    1. CITYBOI_SHINN

    He's the best-dressed short man I've come across , although I don't know his exact height. At a glance, I would say no more than 1m65.

    His management of proportions and volumes is to be commended.

    He even dares to do broader things sometimes and it works out quite well for him.

    2. THE MODEST MAN

    1m67.

    Sober, fairly basic and successful looks.

    3. JEREMY MITCHELL (@XXJMITCH)

    1m68 of the information I found.

    Her look is very personal and worth a look.

    David Hao, maximum soft tailoring

    I think clothing can be a beautiful means of personal development. I like unstructured jackets, straight pants and loafers.
