Basically, I liked this blazer. Since I am larger busted, I have a hard time getting blazers to fit well, so I ordered a 16W. It did fit well around the bust and I was able to button it easily. Downside was that it was really big around the waist area, but that *may* just be because of my body shape. The other big problem was that though it is listed as machine wash/dry, it was extremely hard to iron after drying. The lining in the sleeves, particularly around the cuffs/end of sleeve area, did not want to lay flat or fold over to be ironed flat. It took alot more work than I expected to be able to get it to look right. Other than that, it worked well, and I got alot of compliments on it.

I wore "patch madras " back in the 60's, everything
good does return. Looks great with jeans and it is
a very transitional blazer for spring and fall. I did have to return it to get a larger size, I feel
it runs a bit small, go a larger size if you're
ordering.

I have not had a chance to actually wear this jacket out yet, however, I did try it on once I received it and under the arms it feels a bit bulky and loose. I am going to wash it and see if there is a difference. All in all, a very attractive casual jacket that you could wear with a nice pair of jeans or a summer skirt. Very well made and sturdy!

This is great paired with slacks or capris and the colors in the jacket make it fun to combine with tanks or t-shirts. The lining of the jacket is very bulky. The manufacturer did not do a very good job of designing the lining. The "bulkiness" of the lining makes this jacket too heavy to wear on a really warm day.

I read customer reviews before I placed my order. It's a good thing I did - I ordered 2 sizes larger than I normally wear, and it was a prefect fit - not too tight, not bulky, a comfortable fit. The only thing I don't like about it - it needs ironed - the inside lining and the outside of the jacket both need to be ironed after being washed, or it would be a crinkled/wrinkled mess.
