Though I'm happy that 44% know that true petite is 5'4" and below (regardless of size), over a quarter of you (27%) believe that "petite" only refers to those who're short AND skinny (c'mon people, get with it! That is NOT the case! Actress Nikki Blonsky is PETITE!! She's under 5 feet tall!) 22% noted that, however, people with short necks but average torsos and legs might aren't "petite" in the clothing sense. 5% of you chose other.
