Nice to see you again! </p> <p>Add me to the chorus of folks who really like this jacket on you. I think the way you are wearing it — a bit roomier — works better than the snug fit on the model photo. I’ll be curious to see how the Madewell jacket compares. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2183100 Sun, 28 Mar 2021 13:15:38 +0000 Diana 2183100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scarlet, I think it looks fantastic on you! Agree that it’s better on you than on the model. And thanks for the review! I had been curious about this jacket for myself as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2183098 Sun, 28 Mar 2021 13:13:20 +0000 Anonymous 2183098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in to agree that the G Star looks great - and indeed better on you than the model. &nbsp;Flattering, and interesting ! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2183096 Sun, 28 Mar 2021 12:40:36 +0000 Scarlet 2183096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Based on this positive feedback, I would really just like to cut the tags! I will try to wait and compare it to the other one I ordered though.</p> <p>I have to say that I really love this jacket in part because it is so nicely constructed.</p> <p><b><u></u></b><u>Fit information:</u><b><u></u></b></p> <p>I have been wearing a US 6/8 in tops, and this is a large. I am happy this jacket has the extra length in the body, but the arms are indeed long, as Angie noted.</p> <p><b>Angie</b>,<b></b> thanks for the warm welcome back.</p> <p><b>Jonesy</b>, so nice to “see” you as well!

Great fit. Nice length. Sleeves could do with a hack.

It's nice to see you! I think the G-Star jacket looks great on you; in fact, I like it on you better than the model pic (looks a little too snug on her)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2182983 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 22:09:01 +0000 SarahD8 2182983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I quite like the g star on you! As a matter of fact I think you wear it better than the model. I like the clean lines and elevated effect. Will be interesting to compare the madewell! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2182970 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 20:27:36 +0000 unfrumped 2182970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s hard to get good lighting on a darkish jacket, but from what I can see it looks really good. It seems like it’s supposed to be a slightly short jacket, but it doesn’t look too short / shrunken on you at all. — seems to hit at good spots.<br /> I looked at the jacket stock photo and your comments first, so I thought it was going to somehow look awful! But no way!<br /> Now, only you can tell how it feels on and whether it looks the way you want it to, from more angles , and whether you prefer a different style, layers well and so on. It’s got the pleat- peplum aspect which is different, but not way out there or anything.<br /> Plus of course you can compare the different ones side by side and often that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/utility-jacket-try-on#post-2182962 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 19:22:28 +0000 Scarlet 2182962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found Angie’s “Neutral Spring Utility” blog post inspiring because I have a beloved army green utility jacket that is currently too small. I am looking for a replacement for spring. I have the Madewell jacket on order (see Finds). The G-Star version arrived today (Finds). I loved the jacket on the model so much. I realize it is cut to be shrunken and probably does not suit my very apple-y pandemic body. Nevertheless I thought it was worth trying on. I do like it even though I realize it is probably not that flattering. Probably the Madewell will work better. I just thought I would share in case anyone wanted to see this jacket on a real person, and if you have opinions, I would like to hear.</p> P.S. the old jacket (photo 3) might look more flattering, but I can't wear it closed, and you can see it's too tight on my shoulders :(&nbsp; </p>
