the coat was just as pictured except it seems to be bell shaped below the waist.  it fits me at the shoulders and sleeve length.  it is too large around the waist and hips. I ordered a size medium which on the size chart says 8-10.  my tag reads medium 12  10-12.  so I am keeping the coat because it has kept me warm outside snow shoveling for 2 hours at -10 degrees.  the coat is great and keeps you warm it is excellent in that way. I am 5' 8" and weigh 135 if I had ordered the small it could have been to short in the sleeves.  this coat does not make you attractive. I do look 40 lbs heavier when I wear it but it will absolutely keep me warm to -30 when I'm out snow shoeing.
