You know, now that you mention it moljul, when I 1st met her, i thought it was just me but she seemed much smaller than myself and I'm 5'2. I said to my sister afterwards that it seemed weird that I felt taller than her, eventually attributing it the sneakers i was wearing...hmmmm lol

I'm 5'8" and I honestly felt like I was towering over her...and I don't usually feel like or consider myself a tall person.

Same here exactly...I'm 5'5" and also felt that I "towered" above her. I truly don't think she can be much more than about 5 feet tall.

I don't know...I'm only about 5'3" and I think we were almost eye-level when I saw her after Gypsy. It could have been shoes she had on but I wasn't paying any attention whatsoever to her shoes! hehe.

Well she is rarely seen in public without wearing VERY high heels so I would say it was probably the shoes that made you both see "eye to eye".

I am 5'2" exactly and I didn't think I was any taller than she was. I am looking at the picture of the two of us right now and we are actually about even. She might be slightly smaller than I, but you have to look really hard to see any difference in height. Maybe she was wearing high-heeled shoes, but I don't think so. It was snowing and I remember her wearing flat, boot-like ones. She is very tiny, though.

You are right, ANH. In addition to being short (or am I supposed to call it vertical challenged), she is also VERY petite which makes her appear extremely tiny. Even if she was taller she would still be a tiny person. That doesn't make much sense but I'm assuming you all know what I'm talking about.

I completely agree about her being tiny. I'm 5'3 105lbs and I feel gigantic next to her. I was wearing flat shoes at Broadway Barks and as all of you who attended this year know she was wearing some decent heels and I am the same height as her in the picture (there's a pic in the photo album)

Well then, there is scientific evidence

Bernadatte is clearly wearing about 3 inch heels in the picture from BB6. Amalia is 5'3 and the same height as Bernadette in the pictures. I think we can come to the conclusion that Bernadette is around 5 feet and therefore has been adding 2 inches to her height for pretty much her entire professional adult life. Though I do recall a recent article in the past couple of years listing her as 5'1" so maybe she is slowly trying to come clean.
