Enormous in the chest

Loved it, but runs really big.
I'm a medium, and rented this in small. Fit was ok, but I ended up purchasing it in XS and that fit so much better while still being roomy.

Versatile jacket
Liked this so much I bought it. Normally a medium, but I got this in small and there's plenty of room. Can be dressed up or casual, and is warm enough to wear as a jacket in PA winter. Cool lining.

Runs extremely small
I'm normally an 8, sized up to 12 per other reviews but these were still too small in the waist. Nice color though.

Gorgeous! Compliments all night
On my tall frame, the legs were pretty short but with heeled sandals, it looked fine. I used tape to hold the girls in/up and felt fabulous all night. It is hard to get in and out of to go to the bathroom. If you don't have good shoulder mobility, I'd consider sizing up or choosing something else.

Cool jacket, can size down
I wore this to a work conference with black high rise pants, and it looked great. I am normally a medium but I wore the small with no issue, so I'd say it runs a little large. This was with a thin camisole underneath though.

Gorgeous!
Wore to work with a black button down, and out to dinner with a tank. So eye catching that I decided to keep it. Definitely no give in the waist, and I wore it at my natural waist. Probably could have made a 10 work, though I am typically an 8 currently, and the 8 is what I'm reviewing.

Too frumpy for me
I am normally 8-10, and I ordered down to the 6 based on other reviews. The fit was still too frumpy/conservative for my taste. I did not find it flattering and thus wore something else.

So pretty! True to size
Wore this for a corporate party and loved it. Beautiful design without being too revealing. I am normally 8-10. I got the 10 and had some room to move. It was comfortable and you can wear a normal bra. I probably could have worn the 8 for a more snug fit. Would have purchased if this was in my price range.

Not for athletic arms/back
The material is gorgeous. I am normally an 8-10 and I ordered this in a large. If I could have kept my arms at my sides all night, I might have worn this. However, with my shoulders/back, I felt like it was going to split when I raised my arms. The design just isn't suited for an athletic build. A larger size would have been too big in the waist. As other reviewers noted, the arms are very long but they're designed that way to have a ruched look.

Nice colors, versatile for work
Wore this to my business casual workplace with jeans. The hints of color woven throughout are a nice touch. I wish it had working buttons on the sleeves. They were a little on the short side and the lining was sort of showing - I would have liked to have unbuttoned them and rolled the cuffs.

Very 90's. didn't flatter me
As other reviewers noted, these have a very 90's vibe with the not-quite-bootcut leg. For me, they weren't flattering. I like a slim to straight leg, but these were a little too wide.

Nice look for work
Paired with jeans in my business casual workplace. This fit true to size and the shoulder patch adds a nice detail. I wish this had working buttons on the sleeves. If you have long arms like I do and are used to unbuttoning the sleeves and wearing them cuffed, know that you won't be able to do that with this one. The sleeves are reasonably long though so it wasn't too much of an issue.

ENORMOUS
Would have loved to have sized down as recommended by other reviewers...I'm usually between an 8-10, and 8 was all that was available so I took a chance. No amount of cinching in the waist belt would have held these up. I could have easily worn a 4 or maybe even a 2. As a result, I didn't wear them at all. Size down at least 2x. A shame, because the ankle design is really cool. I may try them again in a way smaller size once one becomes available.
