I purchased this sweater in orange and navy - and both are beautiful!  Soft; and fit just right.  I am 40DD/and normally wear size 16 in dresses.  I ordered XL and it closes over my breast and sits right at my waist line, and the sleeves are a little shorter than 3/4 - hitting right on the fold of the elbow.  However the orange is not as deep as shown, rather the color of light salmon - still gorgeous.
