Being 'unusual' sizing is tough. You should be fine, however.

If you are interested in Next, go online, find the item numbers you want, check if they are instock online, then go to a store and do the next day delivery. It's an easy way to 'shop' from the catalogue without going through their onerous account creation, which you won't be able to do anyways without a UK address if you are trying to do UK delivery.
Thanks, that's a brilliant idea!

I love Boden! Their RAF programme was a great way to offset the exorbitant prices. I know Boden USA run warehouse sales once in a blue moon in Pennsylvania. Hopefully wishing to encounter that in the UK, but I know it's unlikely.

Out of curiosity, what is considered petite in Europe? At 164cm and UK size 6-10, I'm far from petite for an Asian female.
