The name of the newest online boutique for petites, Gambita, means "little shrimp" in Spanish, but its 4'9" founder Caroline Misan Alvo doesn't mind being short at all, except that it's difficult to find clothing that fits properly, a challenge that all petite women face. That's the dilemma that inspired her to start Gambita (Vendor's Site), which is devoted exclusively to petite fashion. Gambita features clothing from "designers that tend to cut their clothes on the smaller side" and makes sure that it's workable for petite woman. Gambita offers jeans, dresses, tops, and bottoms. Gambita's policy of free shipping and free returns makes online shopping a little bit easier.
