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.

I love the look of the jacket and was very disappointed at how the arms fit - cut too small. I was planning on wearing it on the plane, seemed perfect for traveling to New England.
Maybe, Chadwick's could consider "widening" their products for the "older" woman? I've been shopping with Chadwick's for over 20 years (the store in Taunton) and I'm finding that as I age, Chadwick's isn"t. But thanks for many years of stylish, conservative and affordable clothing.

I am a sz 8 or sometimes 10, but I ordered a 12 since I would be wearing it over different tops. The jacket, although pretty, is EXTREMELY undersized. The size 12 was very tight through the shoulders and back - I would be able to move my arms for fear or ripping the material. I would have to order a 16 to get the freedom of movement expected from a jacket. IF YOU WANT IT, ORDER THREE OR FOUR SIZES LARGER THAN YOUR ACTUAL SIZE.

I ordered two different jackets at the same time. One was too large and one was too small. This is unacceptable when ordering by catalogue. Now I have to pay extra to send the too small one back so there was no bargain buying this jacket. Chadwicks needs to show more control over its sizing consistency.

Bright summer blazer

This jacket is very bright (madras plaid color) and lightweight. It fits pretty true to size, maybe a little on the small side in the shoulder breadth. This is good to top an outfit off or bring along for when it gets chillier during those summer nights. Don't expect it to keep you warm in any other season.

 
Lots of compliments
