The waist seems very small. I am going to try it on again to see how it looks. After I put the jacket on, I seemed to like it better. I had a tank top under it, though, and I'd like to see how it looks without it.

I sent this product back because the color was completely different from the picture, instead of a nice wine color it was a light purple. Also the fabric is too heavy to be worn in spring or summer; it was more of a winter fabric. The jacket was way too bulky.

Returning - Collar too big

The collar is too big. Because the fabric is a stiff twill, it did not give a soft appearance. I looked like a little girl playing dress-up.

very wide collar

Pros:
Color true to web photo, Well made

Collar out of proportion
Describe Yourself:

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

I was very disappointed with the style of the jacket. The color and quality of the suit were fabulous. I really loved it when I took it out of the packing. However, for a 5'4" woman, the collar and the sleeves were simply too wide and mannish and made me look peculiar. So I had to return the suit.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The color was beautiful, though I believe it was a little lighter than pictured.. I really loved trying it on, but It was too big in the waist... I usually wear a size larger in skirts. So the skirt was perfect, but the jacket was too big... I guess it's partly a personal problem, small waist, curvy hips... but also the sleaves seemed a bit overwhelming too... If I could have purchased the skirt and jacket in different sizes, then I would have kept it..
So I would recommend this to other women who don't have alot of curves!

I was so impressed with the quality and style of this set in black that I ordered it in wineberry, too. Nice fit to the skirt, wonderful linnen cotton blend means it won't wrinkle quite as much and the jacket is well made and super stylish.
