But for me, there are usually not those sizes available in-store. Though yesterday they did have a 14. It was too small. The numbers seem completely meaningless anyway. I guess I could order an 18 or a 20 online, but if they happen to be TTS then I'm out of luck. I do have to waste time going to the store to return them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1085309 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:56:50 +0000 Suz 1085309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gap sizing and I do not get along either, esp. for jackets. I seem betwixt/ between. For pants I just have to try 500 pairs on in the same size to get a fit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1085303 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:54:30 +0000 Mochi 1085303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nope, Vicks. I'd related in a separate post that I tried on a 10 during Shoptoberfest that was (expectedly) way too small. So I ordered online a 14 and a 16, and both were as small as the 10! So I've given up on it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1085039 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 16:56:34 +0000 Vicki 1085039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, Did you end up buying the one I see in the link? It's more cropped and I like the way it would finish a casual outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1084231 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 00:16:21 +0000 Mochi 1084231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I couldn't find it on the website at all! Under New Items, Sale, any of the sizes. Arrrgh.&nbsp;</p> <p>This is the one I posted on a few days back when asking if other fabbers have experienced weirdness in Gap sizing:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=65180&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=604442002">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....=604442002</a></p> <p>I really prefer it to the one I bought today: more structured, length was better, all in all looked classier. (Editing to add that it got about five pretty negative reviews, related to sizing and shedding issues.)&nbsp;But I'm not ordering 18s and 20s online to have them turn out TTS and be enormous on me. I have better things to do with my time than try and game their weird system just to do them the favor of spending my money on their stuff.&nbsp;</p> <p>One more time, argggh. I should just take a shopping break, as if I've been successful at it recently apart from the killer sandals I bought.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1084189 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 23:42:53 +0000 Kristin L 1084189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a bit too big. Maybe you should try a petite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1084045 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 21:13:01 +0000 Anonymous 1084045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does look too big does it come in petite sizing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1083989 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:21:12 +0000 rae 1083989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, how annoying... I agree it looks long and big, though I like the style a lot. If the size down doesn't work, there is one at Nordies that is a more cropped length, an unlined knit with faux leather trim... similar to the&nbsp;one Zap got at Club Monaco. I cannot find it online, but I think it is by Olivia Moon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1083987 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:20:18 +0000 annagybe 1083987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On sale in petite</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eileen-fisher-eco-pebble-herringbone-jacket-regular-petite/3548558?origin=category-personalizedsort&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=5118&#038;cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-undefined_13_B" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ei.....fined_13_B</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1083986 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:20:07 +0000 Mochi 1083986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>S'okay, and thanks for reinforcing my thoughts.

Sorry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-next-try-at-gap-chanelesque-jacket#post-1083965 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:09:37 +0000 Mochi 1083965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw this one while returning another version that was seriously off kilter in sizing. This one fits, in fact is roomy. It's made of a stretchy sweatshirt type of material and the price is good. I don't expect it to be an investment or statement piece. It's just a fun option to wear on a daily basis. However, for this style of jacket it seems to be too long (I'm talking about hem, not sleeves which are always too long). Seems it should be more cropped to me. What do you all think? Thanks! </p>
