Good quality. The only con would be the jacket
fits a little more snug than I would like.I like a looser fit mostly through the arm and bust. But
I'm larger through the bust and arm area.Still the
jacket is comfortable to wear as well as the skirt. Had multiple compliments when I wore this outfit.Wish they had more colors,I'd buy them all!

The skirt fits perfectly, but I can't button the jacket. One would think that if the waist fits fine, the jacket should also fit around the waist. I love the skirt, so I do not plan to return it, but will wear it with another jacket. The jacket that came with it is useless to me unless I lose at least 10 pounds (desirable, but doesn't seem to happen.)

It looks like it'd be very flattering, but the jacket size is off. The skirt is fine, maybe even a little bit, but that doesn't affect the look. However, the jacket/top is on the small size, doesn't fit well at all. I'm heartbroken because I really like the look, but I have to return it.

I'm wearing this suit to Spring evening wedding. The red color is a lovely true red. Of course being linen it wrinkles, but the lining helps with that and feels very comfortable against the skin. The collar stands up and away which a portrait collar is supposed to do. It does have a low neckline; I'll wear a cami under it when the occassion is more conservative.I love the cream and red print skirt. it's soft and feminine without being poofy. I'll also break it up and wear the skirt with a cream color cardigan and the red jacket over other skirts/dresses. I'd buy this again if it were offered in a color/print I like as much. Very versatile.

The skirt's side seams with bias cut fabric hangs entirely too wide on an already wide enough body. It was laughably hideous as it puckered down each side.
