It's a 2 but really it's more of a 6 -- which explains why there were still small sizes available. </p> <p>Back it goes. Wait 'til you see how this affects the <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-coat-is-calling-to-me">interesting math I've been doing</a> to work that Talbot's coat into my budget... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690226 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 16:52:00 +0000 catgirl 690226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's gorgeous and I don't think it would overwhelm you at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690222 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 16:50:12 +0000 harmonica 690222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful coat!

Can't wait to see it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690087 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:46:01 +0000 Saretta 690087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's bold and fun, you can only tell if it works on you by trying it on, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690079 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:40:52 +0000 Janet 690079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's great, and the print seems like it would be a terrific scale for a petite. I've seen some patterned trenches, but a lot of them have really bold patterns, which can make them more challenging to wear. I say go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690076 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:38:53 +0000 Claudia 690076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a really great coat. I love everything about it and think it would look very chic on you. I think you should definitely try it on. Nice sale price, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690075 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:38:44 +0000 Queen Mum 690075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That coat looks like you April! You have to atleast give it a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690074 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:37:46 +0000 April 690074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zap -- there is a hidden snap placket. I like that because with the pattern, buttons or a zipper would add to the busy-ness.</p> <p>Sounds unanimous that I should try this coat. :)</p> <p>ETA: On its way to me now, so we shall see... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690044 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:18:20 +0000 Anonymous 690044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this returnable? If so, there is no hurt in trying.<br /> I'm quite puzzled as to how i that you put it on. I can't make the buttons or zipper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690043 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:14:50 +0000 Transcona Shannon 690043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is definitely worth trying out, if you're able to purchase and return if it doesn't work. It's a gorgeous coat and the I think the print is a small enough scale that it will work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690032 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:08:33 +0000 Jamie 690032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't let it pass you by without giving a whirl. It's really stunning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690027 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:05:57 +0000 Mo 690027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I am still kicking myself for not picking up a blue and purple mod paisley-ish print trench over 4 years ago! I had debated if it was 'too much' and now I regret not grabbing it. You can find black and beige trenches 'til the cows come home. A great print, not so much. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-690020 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 13:43:51 +0000 marianna 690020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DVF makes beautiful clothes... I think you should try it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-689969 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 12:01:31 +0000 Anonymous 689969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I very seriously doubt that print would overwhelm you. I'm also 5 ft. 2 in. tall and can tell you I'd try on that coat in a heartbeat. Like missvee said, I can see it working with many things. Do try it on. That's the only way you'll know for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-689966 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 11:58:28 +0000 ramya 689966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks all glamorous...<br /> I dont think it would overwhelm you...<br /> So give it a chance:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-689965 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 11:56:20 +0000 missvee 689965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the print size will compliment your petite frame and the colors will be very versatile. I can see this with skirts, pants, jeans, even over a nice black dress. I hope you try it on at least! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-your-thoughts-on-this-coat#post-689948 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 11:23:26 +0000 April 689948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Every time I go to the Neiman Marcus Last Call site, I look at this coat: <a href="http://www.lastcall.com/p/Diane-Von-Furstenberg-Lennon-Printed-Jacket-lennon/prod11490016___/?eItemId=prod11490016&#038;cmCat=search&#038;searchType=SEARCH&#038;icid=&#038;rte=%252Fsearch.jhtml%253FN%253D0%2526Ntt%253Dlennon" rel="nofollow">http://www.lastcall.com/p/Dian.....253Dlennon</a></p> <p>I love it, but have never owned a coat/jacket in a print. What do you think? The print is very small, but I'm only 5'2" -- do you think it would overwhelm?</p> <p>I know the only way to figure it out is to try it on, but thought I would ask for your input first.</p> <p>(Trying not to be overly swayed by its luxe details. Silk lining...SILK LINING!) </p>
