I often have that problem with shoulders, too. Onto the next one, I suppose? Too bad, because I do love the length.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220331 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 03:36:28 +0000 Sveta 1220331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, that is not good. Well, I guess you perfect cropped jacket waits for you somewhere else...:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220327 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 03:34:27 +0000 Diana 1220327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, it was worse with arms down because then you can really see that the shoulder pads extend out past my actual shoulders. &nbsp;Because the shoulder pads are quite stiff it's really obvious that there is empty space below them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220324 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 03:23:27 +0000 Sveta 1220324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually think L can work as a slightly oversized current fit. In the pictures you have your arms up and it adds to the bunching. How does it look with arms in normal positions? Can you ask SA to tak pictures? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220306 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 02:55:05 +0000 Debbie 1220306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with ironkurtin I love your shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220300 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 02:38:56 +0000 ironkurtin 1220300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your tshirt, never mind the jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220240 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 01:43:21 +0000 Diana 1220240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The larger one (first pic) does close comfortably but is otherwise too big. SA claimed it was not supposed to close but I agree it makes the M&nbsp;look too small. &nbsp;Gah!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220053 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 23:10:18 +0000 Janet 1220053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darn, I want this to work for you too. I hate when sleeves are cut too narrow, and it seems all too common these days (I'm shaking my fist at you, IRO!). </p> <p>On to the next jacket. There is something better out there for you. If I see any great cropped (for you!) jackets, I will give a holler. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220042 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 23:04:47 +0000 catgirl 1220042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's just off somehow - it looks like it won't close and even if you won't wear it closed, it's too far apart in the lapels (like that vest I tried). It is so darn cute and you are too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220030 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:57:51 +0000 Suz 1220030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laughing out loud, Diana!!&nbsp;</p> <p>But not at your sweetly furrowed brow! I want this jacket to work, darn it. I wonder if it is worth trying more than one medium. Just to see if some are sized a bit differently. Know what I mean? It's so fun to find a real cropped jacket.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220029 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:57:06 +0000 pil 1220029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha - You're probably safe now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220027 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:56:02 +0000 Diana 1220027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ps- posted this from westin hotel lobby where we were all sitting last weekend. :). I am scared to go use the restroom though just in case I encounter any bar stool bottoms! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220018 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:52:44 +0000 Diana 1220018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The smaller one definitely feels constricting on my biceps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220017 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:51:55 +0000 pil 1220017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good to me - does it feel too small? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-bcbg-duke-jacket-again#post-1220012 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 22:49:52 +0000 Diana 1220012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I might be between sizes. :(</p> <p>Went to try it again with more appropriate under layers. First pic is the L, second is M. Not good photos but the shoulders on the L are too big and there is fabric bunching below them. The shoulders on M are right but arms feel too small. SA says the M is how it's supposed to fit (it's not supposed to close) but I think it looks too small. Boo.</p> <p>Ps - decided not to get the cm linen tee either. It was just slightly too sheer. </p>
