If you are a women who is 5'4" (162 cm) or less petite clothing will probably fit your vertical proportions better. I see many petite women in my Image Consulting practice and yet it is often challenging finding petite clothes (especially in Australia).
The stores listed below are recommendations, from other visitors to this website, for where to find petite clothing.
Feel free to make your own recommendation, or add a comment to someone else's recommendation.
Stores are listed alphabetically, within the country they are physically located (please note: many online stores do ship worldwide, so it's worth taking a look at them, even if you live in a different country).

Found in Debenhams, John Lewis, House of Fraser all department stores. Good quality clothes & classic styles
(UK)
A very small selection, based in the UK, online only. Classic styles, quality is good, but can be pricey so wait for sales.
Only issue I have is that there is a slow turnaround between ranges. On one hand it gets boring on the other it enables you to come back later and buy something you saw earlier but couldn't afford or did not initially need.

International Company, owned by Peter Nygard.
Has a wide selection of petite clothing and also carries a petite short pant length which is a little shorter then the regular petite length.
Excellent service for customer fitting and clothing is washable and durable even for that customer in a nursing home.
Great selection for that working girl or a world traveler!
