The model in the image must be very tall or wearing tall heels because I'm 5'8" and this coat still comes almost to my knees rather than mid-thigh like on the picture. I was also expecting a slight A-line, but there is no shape to the coat. It's a little big in the middle, but the shoulders and sleeve length are just right, so I don't know if I can go a smaller size. I'm a little disappointed because I was pretty excited for this coat.
