As someone who was once in the fashion business, I'm very picky about my clothes. This trench not o only met my expectations, it exceeded them!I am 5'3", 140, 36C. I needed something stylish to wear to Paris next month. I am usually a medium, but I wanted to be sure that I could wear a sweater underneath without the coat pulling across my chest, so I ordered a large. The fit is perfect for me. I have large upper arms (thanks, Mom) and the sleeves are not tight on this at all.I was concerned about the length of the hem and sleeves - this looks great, with the hem hitting just above the knee. The sleeves are slightly too long for me, but it turns out that the buckles on the bottom of the sleeves actually work, so by adjusting them I can keep my sleeves at a proper length.The coat has great details - a red grosgrain ribbon inside the lining, elegant looking brass hardware, dark, high-quality buttons that are firmly sewed on, and not one loose thread. My favorite detail is a hidden button on the belt - it discreetly attaches the belt to a belt loop so that it can't slip out and become lost.I can't believe that I was able to purchase a trench of this quality at an amazing price. Love, love, love this coat. 5 stars!
