By Quantumwoman from Beautiful Upstate New York on 09/05/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Nice Fabric, Versatile Best Uses: Interview, Office, Office Meetings Describe Yourself: Conservative, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The fabric of this suit is a loose-weave, so be careful of snags. The colors are very subtle--black, tan, and white all mixed together. Up close you can see individual colors; far away it looks dark gray. Very pretty! The skirt is a great length, too.
By Office gal from Washington, DC on 08/12/2009 Pros: Breathable, Durable, Nice Fabric Cons: jacket too big, Skirt too short Best Uses: Interview, Office, Office Meetings Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Practical, Stylish Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: OK, I ordered this hoping my body would be the right fit for this suit and it is not, so let me be as explicit as possible about size. I ordered the Small. My jacket size is typically a 4-6. This jacket hung off of me like it was at least 2 sizes too big. The sleeves were very long and it was boxy and I looked like I was wearing my dad's jacket or something. Then then skirt, which is very cute, is pretty short for what you would expect of a suit of this quality. I am in the 2 -4 size range for skirts, and this one fit me but hit about 2 inches above the knee, so not scandalous, but I would expect knee length should be standard for a skirt suit. [...]. The bottom is far too small for the matched jacket, so people need to be able to mix and match, especially for the price and quality of the fabric.
By Wisconsin Hockey Mom from Waukesha, WI on 06/09/2009 Pros: Durable, Nice Fabric Cons: Jacket to boxy for skirt, Odd fit, Skirt too short for jacke Best Uses: Interview, Office, Office Meetings Describe Yourself: Conservative, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I had high hopes for this suit, but it really didn't deliver. The skirt seemed snug (and too short for the jacket) and the jacket seemed way to large (and too boxy for the skirt.
By midentropy from Cleveland, OH on 04/13/2009 Best Uses: Interview, Office Meetings Describe Yourself: Practical, Trendy Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I wore this to an interview and got the job, so it holds a special place in my heart. I found it to look great with a black camisole, and thought that the man-style jacket paired with a skirt was attractive. The shoulders have slight padding , but didn't make me look like I belonged on the swim team. The sleeves were long, which was great for me. All in all, a good buy.
Nice suit, but the skirt is a bit short By tg from Austin, TX on 12/26/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Nice Fabric Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I really like the jacket and will keep the suit for that reason. I'm not so crazy about the skirt, it's a little tight, and I'd prefer it to be about 2-3 inches longer.
