The petite sections in most stores only carry up to a size 14 - if that. Anything over that, forget it.

There used to be something called "half sizes" and I think that's basically what they were - plus sizes for shorter women.
I think the last paragraph is what the problem is...the petite departments have a "dowdy" image in the stores they mentioned. Although in Kaufmann's and Macy's I've never seen evidence of this - Macy's especially - the petite stuff is the same as the regular size stuff.
