I'm not confident in my ability to know if it fits well or not.</p> <p>I'm going to keep the petite small and try wearing it with some outfits. That way I can get a better idea how I think it looks/feels.</p> <p>Thanks everyone for the feedback! I feel like I need a lot of handholding on these decisions, and I appreciate that you're willing to give it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78609 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 05:07:30 +0000 Angie 78609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t think the petite is boxy at all. You have a straight-ish figure and that jacket fits well. Does the petite feel boxier, Medusa? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78533 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 22:51:18 +0000 medusa 78533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, interesting! I haven't returned the petite yet - I'm glad about that. I picked up on the boxiness of the petite as well, since it is shorter.</p> <p>It seems like a bunch of you think the petite should be tailored. (Angie - do you agree with that also?) To those of you who have done this - what do you ask your tailor to do? Just take it in along the side seams? Create darts like on a blouse? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78441 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 16:51:57 +0000 Anonymous 78441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awe! We learned something here this mornig, that denim jackets should have a cheeky element. That is an important thing to know. Thanks Angie.<br /> Medusa I hope you haven't returned the petite jacket yet. I do think you should have the aist tailored a little to keep it from looking boxy.<br /> I saw Angie's decade old denim jacket in person. It fits her to a T and she said she had the whole thing reworked to get that perfect fit which means it will be a vintage classic in her wardrobe.<br /> Right Angie? I don't want to misquote you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78438 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 16:46:52 +0000 Angie 78438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*spanner*</p> <p>I hands down prefer the petite. Shiny and I are on the same fit wavelength this morning. Denim jackets need to look cheeky. The shorter one is definitely cheekier! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78405 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 15:03:31 +0000 Sarah 78405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually liked the petite too, san. From the back, it looks like the small is just a bit too long, and you get that puckering near the hem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78401 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 14:57:22 +0000 shiny 78401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm the odd one out: I prefer the petite, it fits you better in the shoulders and the sleeve length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78373 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 09:02:53 +0000 rute 78373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also prefer the small, but I would take it to a taylor to make it more fit on the waist, because it seems a little boxy.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78297 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 00:11:15 +0000 medusa 78297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback! I agree that the petite small seems a bit short. I'll return it and keep the small. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78253 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 06:03:51 +0000 cciele 78253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the small size is more versatile than the petite small; however, I think both sizes look ok on you! The small is a good length for the tunic/legging look; I could see the more cropped petite small with skirts (although the small size would also work). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78188 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 17:48:53 +0000 Louise 78188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tunic over leggings looks fantastic on you- you totally pull it off x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78105 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 02:58:10 +0000 Anonymous 78105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also agree the small seemed a better fit. It's very cute on you! I really like the leggings look you are playing around with, not stupid at all in my eyes. That tunic is so cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78099 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 02:43:53 +0000 Kellee 78099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Maya.<br /> The small will work well with many different outfits-proportions/length of tops vs. bottoms.</p> <p>Eddie Bauer did file for bankruptcy. So I concur that it would<br /> be best to return as soon as you can. </p> <p>Congrats on your new denim jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78044 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:32:27 +0000 Maya 78044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the small. the petite small looks boxier since it is more cropped. The small looks great and seems to fit very well. </p> <p>Didn't Eddie Bauer file for bankruptcy? Assuming they are still accepting returns, I would advise you to return whichever jacket you decide not to keep as soon as you can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-this-denim-jacket-fit-me#post-78042 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:16:23 +0000 medusa 78042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Please help!</p> <p>I ordered the Eddie Bauer denim jacket that has been recommended here. I can't tell if it fits or not. From what I've read here, getting the fit right on a denim jacket is important, but I don't really know what that means. </p> <p>I ordered two different sizes, small and petite small. I took a bunch of pictures of the jacket both buttoned and unbuttoned. Also, in the photos I'm trying on the jacket over a tunic &#38; leggings, since I wanted to try that look. I think it looks kind of stupid, so please ignore that part and focus on the jacket fit.</p> <p>Size Small album:<br /> <a href="http://s605.photobucket.com/albums/tt133/medusa_style/small/" rel="nofollow">http://s605.photobucket.com/al.....yle/small/</a></p> <p>Size Petite Small album:<br /> <a href="http://s605.photobucket.com/albums/tt133/medusa_style/petite%20small/" rel="nofollow">http://s605.photobucket.com/al.....e%20small/</a> </p>
