Full-length down coats with real fur that won't break the bank are very hard to find, so it was love at first sight when I saw this coat and the price was right so I had to have it.  Even though the Java color is gorgeous, I chose the luxurious Black color.  Im 53 and I bought the XS which fits like it was custom made for me.  I tried it on wearing flats and the length is perfect  it stops several inches above my ankles so I can wear pants or skirts of any length or material and my legs will stay warm.  This is a very high quality coat that was made with attention to detail such as a perfectly sized hood that doesnt slip off my head as I move, silky soft fur that frames my face and catches the snow/sleet/rain, generously sized zipper pulls that hook quickly and easily (you won't need tweezers to grasp them), a collar that lays flat and doesnt tickle my chin, snaps placed perfectly that stay fastened as I walk around, knit trim on the inside cuffs that keeps the wind & snow out and dyed to match zippers on the pockets that blend into the lines of the coat  no bulging.  Its a uniquely designed, very feminine coat that complements a womans shape and looks as amazing over evening attire as it does with business and casual wear.  Another deciding factor in buying this coat is that the fox collar can be removed for professional cleaning (I won't have to wear a hair-flattening hat like I do when my old jackets hood with the sewn-on fur collar is at the dry cleaners) and the rest of the coat is machine washable which makes my wallet happy.  I live in the Great Plains area (two blizzards in less than a week) and this coat will keep me warm and toasty and is breathtakingly beautiful as well.
