petite is for shorter women
junior's for teens and early 20's and will usually be your odd numbered sizes
misses is for career wear, and adult women in non-plus sizes. these would be your even numbers. they are also fuller cut.
woman's labeling, is for plus sizes, and will usually be followed by a "W", which means they are cut fuller in certain places
so let's say you are a 14, a "misses" 14 is cut differant than a "woman's" 14...because woman's sizes, usually have a bigger waist
and then you get into the odd sizing...a junior 7 is actually a misses 10 usually, because the cut of the odd sizing is so slim, it is meant for girl's with no curve, like teen's...and yes, a woman can usually wear 3 differant sizes, because every manufacturer has a differant idea of body size, there is no regulation
