If this is such a big problem for you, write letters to the department stores and fashion designers voicing your concern. Encourage your petite friends and relatives to do the same. You might get some satisfaction.

This is already being done. I am starting out with the petition (see signature) and will go from there.

Again, I am really surprised by this. Would you react this way if I wore size 22? Everyone praises plus sized women for challenging the standard, but when a shorter woman does the same, THIS happens.
