I had to have a conservative black blazer in a hurry, and this seemed to fit the requirement. I was pleased when it arrived. In spite of the all-synthetic fiber content it has a very nice feel and look. It is a comfortable weight, and it will probably be suitable year-round. (Though I certainly hope I don't need to wear a black suit in August!) Like all clothing makers, this one assumes that if you wear a plus size you are big-busted. Alas, not true here. The princess seam made it easy to alter for a better fit in that area. Size runs true. Although I didn't particularly want a black blazer, I think I'll be wearing this one often.
