I think the fit looks perfect (lucky you to pick a jacket off the rack and not have to alter the sleeve and hip length!). I like it best unbuttoned as you intend, and agree it would look great with pants or a sheath-or a floatier flare skirt. I hope you get lots of wear out of it this festive season! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1590021 Fri, 04 Dec 2015 12:30:42 +0000 Janet 1590021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket!

The fit looks fine and it would be a great addition to a festive capsule for some time! Pants, skirts etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589922 Fri, 04 Dec 2015 03:35:49 +0000 Suz 1589922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it!!

I like this sort of subtle sparkle. That feels really forward to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589113 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 01:42:44 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1589113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. I think it will be even better with black tux-ish pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589093 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 01:01:41 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1589093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! Like Liberace, toned down. I think the fit looks fantastic and vote a big keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589089 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 00:58:19 +0000 Aziraphale 1589089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's wrong with Liberace? ;-)</p> <p>It's shiny, all right, but that does not have to be a problem.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589060 Tue, 01 Dec 2015 21:42:19 +0000 unfrumped 1589060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, always trying! I usually find buttoned-up feels too fussy.<br />Angie, thanks. This is one of those potentially "imaginary lifestyle" items, in the sense of my not having just tons of occasions, but hopefully it has some longevity&nbsp;to&nbsp;use in &nbsp;&nbsp;the "festive capsule" for a few years&nbsp;, and it&nbsp;happened to turn up&nbsp;now. Because I can never just&nbsp;run out and put these outfits together at the last minute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589053 Tue, 01 Dec 2015 21:31:28 +0000 Angie 1589053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fits looks great. Modern, and fably Liberace!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589043 Tue, 01 Dec 2015 20:51:33 +0000 always trying 1589043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow someone else remembers Liberace!!!!!</p> <p>It looks like the shoulders and arms fit well.&nbsp; I think it looks fine, and will look great unbuttoned, which is how most of us wear blazers anyhow.&nbsp; </p> <p>I posted before that it is a great jacket.&nbsp; Nice addition to a wardrobe.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-sized-up-br-pewter-tux-jacket-luxe-or-liberace#post-1589040 Tue, 01 Dec 2015 20:39:39 +0000 unfrumped 1589040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided to order the BR metallic tuxedo jacket in a size up, since I could not wear the one I tried first.<br /> It is much more comfortable, though sleeves are still relatively tight for the rest of it. I can easily layer over a thin knit or blouse now.</p> <p>Shown below. I think you can tell it's more generous through chest than needed, but does it say to you, <i>this person's jacket does not fit</i>? As in, too much fabric? Shoulders are a titch over. And ha, I know the hip fit is none too loose! The back vent is still stitched closed, so that would give it more ease if buttoned, but I showed it buttoned because you can see the fit better, though my usual tendency is to wear unbuttoned.</p> <p>What I lose in precise fit from the smaller size (besides the fact that I can actually move in it!) , I gain in less crinkles and more easy, versatile fit--such as casual festive, jeans, slouchy trousers, or dressy pants with heels, which would give it more wears,  but I think it might still go over a sheath dress or flared skirt .  </p> <p>I've just tried it on with what I was wearing that day, so I still would like to try it with some pants.</p> <p>This is a good style of sparkly jacket for me, being shiny but a darker pewter, scuba-esque not sequined, and with the narrow lapels.<br /> Oh, and I ordered it not on sale, it's the line that's often not included in regular sales, then went on sale CyberMonday and we worked it out.</p> <p>Comments and critiques welcomed. Help me see what aspects may not be working. </p>
