If it's truly due to a lack of voicing by petites, why do you expect non-petite people to care? I don't expect my mother or my sisters who are all 5'4" to care that I can't find clothes to fit me (well, maybe my mom only because she can alter/make clothes for me if I need.)
Evidently some designers and stores have decided it's not cost-effective to mass-produce and sell clothes for petites. It's about business and money and following market trends and demands, not slighting the petite woman. You've said twice now that you should just design your own line of petite clothing, great! Have at it. Start your own petite boutique. Offer tailoring services. DO something (yes, I realize you've started the petition) instead of bitching and getting angry when people aren't 100% sympathetic.

How do you know this? Have you done an extensive survey? Asked one or two people? Or are you going on your personal feelings if you lived in Europe? I'm sure every major designer has done some sort of market research to learn what the demands are in the various countries they serve. If the need/demand was *truly* there, they would have acted upon it.
