If you are petite, you already know there is a difference between a dress being shorter and a dress actually fitting.
Those are not the same thing.
At White Elegance, petite sizing is not just about trimming the hem and hoping for the best. We maintain the proportions of the original style so the dress still feels balanced, flattering, and beautifully designed from neckline to waist to skirt. That matters, because when a dress is proportioned correctly, it does not just fit better. It feels better.
Our regular length temple dresses are designed to fit women approximately 5’5″ to 5’7″, while our petite temple dresses are made for women around 5’1″ to 5’4″. And for women under 5’1″, several of our styles are also easy to hem, which makes finding the right fit even simpler.
That thoughtful approach is one reason petite women love White Elegance temple dresses. It is important to us that every woman can find an LDS temple dress that helps her feel beautiful, comfortable, and completely at ease in the temple. Feeling considered should not be a luxury.
Two of our best-selling petite LDS temple dresses are Zurich and London. Zurich is a lace zip-front style with a real waist, soft knit lining, side ties, and just enough stretch to give a more flexible, flattering fit.
London is beloved for its raised lace, softly sweeping skirt, and stretch bodice that creates comfort without sacrificing shape. Both dresses offer a little stretch, which many women appreciate, and both have skirts that are especially easy to hem if extra length adjustment is needed.
White Elegance offers more than 10 styles in petite sizing, because petite women deserve more than one or two afterthought options. You deserve variety. You deserve proportion. And you deserve a temple dress that feels like it was made with you in mind.
