I hate when designers change their fits. I was really annoyed with IRO -- my blue leather jacket is such a great fit, but a couple of years later they changed their fits so that everything is cut smaller and tight in the sleeves. Who are all of these tiny, skinny-armed people they are designing for?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1779049 Thu, 16 Feb 2017 16:23:21 +0000 Mochi 1779049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're right, Angie, but the problem is still that with this Large, I couldn't come close to closing it. And the other same-brand jacket I have fits perfectly fine in a Petite Large. So I just don't get it. Anyway, next!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1779027 Thu, 16 Feb 2017 15:44:30 +0000 Angie 1779027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You need a petite size, my friend.

It was too tight through the arms and felt confining. Sold out online, but I did not like it enough to go to a store and have a SA call around for a size up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1778574 Wed, 15 Feb 2017 00:19:18 +0000 Mochi 1778574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jacket just arrived this evening. My other Bernardo jacket is a petite large and fits very well. This one was a regular large and didn't remotely fit; go figure. It's nice suede, not as sturdy as the other jacket but for its sale price a good buy. The color wasn't quite as bright as it appears in the photo, but it's nice. I didn't even look to see whether the collar would work for me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776868 Fri, 10 Feb 2017 19:43:09 +0000 Glory 1776868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it could be fab and am excited to see it on when it arrives. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776740 Fri, 10 Feb 2017 12:07:30 +0000 Style Fan 1776740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a great jacket.&nbsp; Beautiful colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776610 Fri, 10 Feb 2017 02:00:30 +0000 Mochi 1776610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, all! I ordered it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776593 Fri, 10 Feb 2017 01:25:52 +0000 JAileen 1776593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the jacket is beautiful. The closing at the top might be a problem. It looks like it could be annoying. But maybe not. You'll have to try it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776585 Fri, 10 Feb 2017 00:56:36 +0000 DonnaF 1776585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that color. . .I'm on a shopping fast (diet?) but I used Nordstrom Notes.&nbsp; Does that count?&nbsp; 53% off and FOMO caused me to pull the trigger.&nbsp; I'm not hopeful that it will fit me since I'm a true Petite not on the cusp, so I hope I can enjoy it vicariously through you.&nbsp; The sleeves look easy to shorten. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776521 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 22:33:23 +0000 Angie 1776521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. It has potential, Nancy. Try it. Gorgeous French blue.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776506 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 21:51:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1776506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a petite apple with ample bosom, I find this style works well on me - but I do wear it open. Gorgeous color for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776499 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 21:23:06 +0000 Suz 1776499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous colour. Might need a try on -- collar could be problematic. If you would wear open, probably easier.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776495 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 21:02:22 +0000 deb 1776495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not Angie but I love the color and it would look really good on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-would-this-jacket-likely-work-for-me#post-1776455 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 19:22:39 +0000 Mochi 1776455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hola, Angie. I have another Bernardo jacket that I love. Does this seem likely to be a good match for me (apple, busty, etc)? I think so but not positive. I love the color. Suede, but I'd have to be careful and protect it, etc. Thanks! xoxo </p>
