By FlourGirl from Bergen County, NJ on 03/20/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable, Durable, Stylish, Versatile Best Uses: Office, Travel, Work Meetings Describe Yourself: Classic, High-end shopper, Stylish Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a beautiful jacket. The fabric is great and the workmanship is excellent. The cut is flattering but take note of the length. This is not a short or waist length coat. It's cut more like a riding jacket. I'm 5'10" and it almost covers my butt. It also runs very large. Usually I wear a size 10. After a couple of tries I found a perfect fit with the size 6. That maybe sounds like too much trouble but now that I've got the right size I love it!

By travelingwoman from barrington,il on 01/23/2009 Pros: Durable, Stylish, Versatile Best Uses: Office, Work Meetings Describe Yourself: Classic, Comfort-oriented, Stylish, Trendy Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Very unusual cut.
Shoulders are very broad and have thick shoulder pads in addition to it.
But hip area is quite narrow.
If you are build like that - go for it , the quality of the fabric is superb and it is a very elegant jacket for the woman with narrow hips and broad shoulders.
On me it looked like I raided my husband closet ..:(
The fabric quality can not be better.

The garment is a classic; designed well. By Linda from Corona, CA on 01/06/2009 Pros: Attractive Design, Stylish Describe Yourself: Classic Sleeve Length: Feels too long Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I ordered the blazer in a size 4, but it fit like a size 8. In production, they may have inadvertently put in the wrong size.
By travelingwoman from barrington,IL on 01/05/2009 Best Uses: Casual Wear, Work Meetings Describe Yourself: Classic, 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 have no idea who this jacket can fit out of the box.
It has huge shoulder pads that if removed would made the shoulder seams just hang below shoulder line.
The jacket buttons below the regular person/5'5"/
waist and won't allow for the lapels to lay flat .This is not where the jacket should button./ unless you have a stick figure and everything hangs on you anyway/
It is a shame because the jacket is long and could be worn with pants even by somebody who rather doesn't wear pants because of the heavy bottom and the fabric is timelessly elegant and good quality.
I'll take it to my tailor and depending on the quote for alteration -will keep it or return it.

It's very versatile - can be dressed up or down with tops and accessories. I find it very comfortable, and I especially like the longer jacket, because I'm on the tall side. The weight is good for three seasons here (New England).

Quality Jacket short on material By Cartier Girl from Monroe, New Jersey on 12/09/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Breathable Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I wish the catalogue would state when you are selling irregular items - it is such a waist of time ordering and think you are getting a quality item on sale and you fine out it is irregular. I will be more cautious when ordering the brands I am familiar with and think will fit as it is no fun in returning items.
