How to read this piece. Every figure below is resolved from the brand directory at build time, not typed into this article: each one names the brand’s own page it came from and the date that page was read. Where a brand publishes nothing, this says so rather than estimating. The interpretation around the figures is editorial, and is marked as such. Nothing here was worn, tried or measured by the publication.
The most complete size chart in the world is useless if the parcel cannot reach you. Access is the filter that comes before price, before block type, before everything, and it is the one filter readers apply last, usually at the checkout, usually as a surprise.
So this page puts it first. Twelve of the twenty-one researched ranges publish a shipping page that could be read and recorded. What those pages say divides the directory into a US shelf, a UK shelf, and a very short list that crosses. The other nine ranges published nothing readable, and their records hold a blank rather than a guess.
The ones that cross
Two UK-based ranges publish delivery to the United States, and the one petite-only specialist in the directory publishes international delivery from the US side. For a reader shopping across the Atlantic in either direction, this short table is the realistic starting point.
Side by side
The three researched ranges whose published shipping crosses a border. Returns matter twice as much at this distance, and one of the three publishes a returns figure.

“Not established” means nobody has found the brand publishing it. It is not a “no”. Each record on the brand directory gives the reason for every gap.
The US shelf
Six ranges publish US delivery and nothing beyond it that could be established. Note what this shelf is strong in: the directory’s denim depth is almost entirely here, and so is its only petite-only specialist.
Side by side
Ranges with published US delivery. The denim column shows why a UK reader feels this gap most: the strongest denim evidence in the directory sits on this shelf.

The UK shelf
Three ranges publish UK delivery only. This is where the directory’s occasionwear and tailoring evidence concentrates, which is the mirror image of the US shelf’s denim weight. A US reader browsing the workwear and occasionwear coverage is mostly reading about ranges that do not publish delivery to them.

Ranges with published UK-only delivery. Occasionwear coverage clusters here, and two of the three publish who pays for a return.

The nine that publish nothing readable
The remaining ranges either publish no shipping page their own site would serve, or serve one that could not be read and recorded cleanly. Their records say exactly that. It does not mean those brands will not deliver to you; it means nobody can cite where they deliver, which is a different and more fixable problem: their own checkout will answer in two minutes what their help pages would not.
A workable way to shop across the split
The access-first filter
Start from the shelf that ships to you, not from the range you liked first.
+For a crosser, read the returns terms before the size chart.
+For a silent range, get the answer from its checkout before investing any research time.
Shipping coverage is volatile, and every figure on this page carries a re-check window.
Published delivery is not a promise of stock, duty-free arrival, or a painless return.
Nothing here establishes coverage for the nine silent ranges. Blanks are blanks.
Sources
Guidance in this article is derived from the published material below. No garment described here has been worn or tested by the publication.
The fit research desk compiles published size charts, garment measurements and inseam data, then records what those numbers mean for a 5’4″-and-under frame. Findings are attributed to the measurements they came from.
Nine of the researched ranges yielded a usable price sample. Here is where each one landed, what the sampling method actually measures, and why twelve ranges have no figure at all.
A denim brief, a workwear brief and an occasion brief, each walked from constraint to shortlist using nothing but what the researched brands publish. The working is shown.
