I was very excited after making my first online purchase from Chadwick's and followed the sizing chart however when I received the item it was too big - it looked as though it belonged to someone else.I am ordering from the caribbean and had to send the items to a friend to in the US for them to send to me therefore it is very difficult for me to return the item. I will have to find someone to adjust it to suit - I hope they can do it. I would recommend the clothing to friends however I will let them know to be mindful of the sizing

This suit is nice, I ordered the grey by mistake, but it is still nice. I think the cream and brown would have been even more outstanding.

Supposed to be a 6 but felt like an 8. Belt was too short in proportion to width of jacket. Beautiful suit; very disappointed to have to return it.

Beautiful suit! Good quality fabric. Jacket has real pockets. The grey part has subtle vertical stripes that are not visible from the online picture. Skinny cuffs (brown polkadot) also not visible in the picture. Very flattering and professional. It makes a great first impression. Wish it came in more colours!

I loved this suit, too. Great material. Hangs nicely on the body. Cute contrast. Skirt fit perfectly; however, jacket and belt was too tight. I'll have to exchange for bigger size.
Beautiful, but sized way too small!!

This is a really pretty, unique suit and I received quite a number of compliments on it, but it's really tight through the waist and hips, and even though I'm only 5'4" the petite size hits me right above the knee, which I didn't like. It's also tight in the bust and I'm only a 34B! Why can't Chadwick's sizing be more consistent?
I love it! The materials go well togeth

I am sending this back for a bigger size. This is very short in 8P and the belt didn't match the size, it had to have been a 2P belt as it didn't reach from one side to the other to tie it. I typically wear an 8P. Hope the new size fits.

I wanted to use this as one of my business suits. Loved the design and look BUT....I had to return it twice. The first time the size I normally wear (size 4) was too small so I requested an exchange for a size 6. When it arrived it fit nice BUT there was a defect/flaw along the side seam. Had to send it back again. [...]

I loved this suit from the second I saw it in the catalog! The skirt fit perfectly, but unfortunately, the jacket was way too tight, so I had to send it back. I wish Chadwick's offered their two-piece outfits as separates. That seems to be the best way for me to buy. Tops and bottoms are ALWAYS two different sizes for me. I still recommend the suit....I love it and hated to send it back!

I wore this suit for Easter Sunday and had numerous compliments on it. It was comfortable and I felt good in it. With the contrasting material in the kick pleats and trim on jacket it looked very stylish. I also feel that it is very well made (nicely lined, etc.).
Liked it very much, but sleeves too long

This is a very cute, well designed suit. It will work great for the office or for church. My only complaint is that it's a little small in the chest but that's probably because I run a little big in the chest (36DD).

The outfit is not sized correctly, I returned it. I did not order another, because I felt it still would be too small. The lining was also too tight in the hips & bust area.

At first I thought it fit too small in the waist but I am so used to styles that fit just below the waist I had tried to make it fit there. When I placed the skirt at my true waist, it fit just right. I haven't worn it yet, but am applying for several jobs and intend to wear it on interviews.
