Napoleon Complex? Don't worry, something's bound to fit your tiny frame.

SAN FRANCISCO (Wireless Flash - FlashNews) – People suffering from major Napoleon complex can still gussy up their teeny frame.

The Frankenart Mart in San Francisco is lending smaller folks a helping hand in the wardrobe department with Napoleon’s Clothing Shoppe, a project running now through August 1.

The art gallery has been converted into a small clothing store and alterations area catered to petite people just like the famous French leader.

So, men, women, and children who are short, tiny, masculine types can buy or trade clothes that’ll fit their bodies like a glove from others shaped just like them, according to spokesperson Leslie Hanslee.

They can even bring in their other clothes that are just a bit off and have them altered or re-purposed into other useful pieces, like bags and wallets.

Tiny, yet powerful, folks can also get their new clothes smelling fresh since the Frankenart Mart is offering to do their laundry throughout the Napoleonic days.
