I wanted this coat SO badly. It was everything I'd hoped for when it came in - it had a satin shimmer, the fit was nice through the waist, and I love the skirting detail because it dresses up the coat and makes it very feminine. However, I have a shoulder-fit problem with about 50% of coats/jackets I try on, and this jacket fell in that category. It fit perfectly while just standing there, but I was unable to lift my arms out in front of me because it didn't offer enough room across the back. I had a couple co-workers try it on and most of them had the same problem. Only my tall, sinewy friend felt it fit her correctly. It's a real bummer because it was exactly what I was looking for, but I had to return it.
