I am trying to buy some new clothes for a nursing home resident. She has lost weight and the clothes she has there are now two or three sizes too big!
I am having trouble with pants. I need pants with a 25.5 inch (or 26 at most) inseam. They need to be pull on and washable, of course. Unfortunately, she doesn't like capris. She keeps trying to tug them down.
I found a pair at Macy's but when I went back to reorder they said they were backordered in her size to JULY! UGH! I used to buy petite (28 inch inseam) and have them hemmed but I don't sew and the tailors are all closed. Even petite short sometimes needs to be hemmed.
Does anyone have a good place to shop for online clothes that are soft, washable, easy to put on and for the very short? Thank you!

They come in a variety of short sizes and are easy to wash.

She had tons of clothes in the right size but we needed clothes with no zippers, buttons, no "dry clean only"....her old life wasn't as "loungey" as her current life. She was a sharp dresser.
All the suggestions were very helpful! Thank you to the forum!
The nice thing about fabric like this is it is easy to wash and dry, does not stain easily.
You can find them in Men's, Woman's or Children's departments so if you get solid colors they are pretty much "uni-sex" as well as gender neutral.
