The Petite USA Pageant was founded in 2009 by Hazely Lopez-Alvarez with a vision to empower and celebrate petite beauty, 5'6 or less. The Petite USA Pageant focus on celebrating the accomplishments of petite women and provides them opportunity to be a voice and spokesmodel for petite women around the United States. 

​

Petite USA is the official United States preliminary to the Miss Universal Petite pageant. The winners in our Teen, Miss, and Ms. divisions will represent the USA at Universal Petite. These three ladies will compete against petite women from all over the world for the coveted titles of, Teen Universal Petite, Miss Universal Petite, and Ms. Universal Petite. 

​

With a vision of serving, Petite USA is more than just a pageant. The Petite USA Family is a sisterhood that embraces healthy competition and a heart to serve others through our leadership and outreach. Each contestant is asked to champion a "Personal Platform" that is near and dear to her heart to encourage leadership, community service, and kindness. 

​

Our areas of competition include swimsuit, evening gown, judge interview, and on-stage question. We are looking for poised, graceful, and passionate ladies that understand that their height is no limitation to fulfilling their dreams.
