peplum too short for the look I was going for. With the 20 foot theatre rule, the matting wouldn't have mattered - but up close, it looked rather sad.

The garment runs small. Get one size bigger in order to fit properly. Also, the length is short, almost petite size length. It would be a good fit for slender and short person.

I purchased this item in the black with navy trim embrodiery. The embroidery is subtle, but adds an elegant touch. This item is very versatile and can be worn to work, going out, dress or formal over a dress, etc. The fit is slim fitted and that is flattering. I love the look and the 3/4 sleeves are elegant, combined with the embroidery and the velvet look and feel of the item. I am very pleased with purchase.

I was really disappointed in this jacket. How it looks in the picture is not how it looks in person. It also runs very big! I always wear a size 6 jacket and this one swallowed me up. I promptly returned it!

Odd collar and a bit shapeless. Overall the look and fit just didn't work for me. Maybe it would work for someone else. Quality seemed fine otherwise, but I returned it.

I can't wait to wear this jacket this fall/winter! I haven't worn it yet because it's summer and I'm also 8 months pregnant. I love the waist detail and the detail on the sleeve and bottom of the jacket. Looks like good quality workmanship and the jacket is lined. The brown color is perfect! It's not a deep brown, but a deep medium brown. I can't wait to pair it with jeans or nice dress pants. As a soon-to-be mommy of 2 kids under two, I was looking for something easy to throw on but still looks classy and even stylish. This was my first purchase from this site and I can't wait to make more in the future!

The jacket is nice and stylish. The only issue I have with it is that the shoulders are a bit big on me. It doesn't look weird, but I can tell that they are big. I am a size small and got a size 4 jacket.

Bottom Line:

Distinctive style; would go well with jeans or matching skirt or slacks. Fits well on an average adult figure.
It would be improved by a little more contrast between the embroidery and the fabric(mine is black with navy. black with cobalt would be better)-not too drastic. Would like more colors, and the option of a matching skirt or slacks. Same color but no embroidery.

looks better on the hanger
By AmyVerified Purchaser from Marine City< Michigan on 2/9/2008

Feels too short
Pros:
Attractive Design
Cons:
Poor Material
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The jacket looked nice through the shoulders but was not really tailored well from the empire waist to the hem and because the material was stiff, the jacket did not flow smoothly over my mid-section but istead stuck out. I like to wear clothes that look nice for work but feel comfortable and don't wrinkle or bunch up. I thought this looked like a stylish jacket that would fit my requirements for work clothes but I was wrong.
