Ask Angie one more question: Karen Millen Tweed Tunic

viva

Hi Angie,

Just browsing the Finds this morning and came across this piece you had recommended, which I love (in theory). Just a couple of questions.
You note that it is longer than it looks: can it still work over skinnies on a 5'5'' woman?
And does it look at all maternity-wear?

Thanks,xxxx

Karen Millen

Aha. It's a STUNNUNG piece. And long. It can almost be a frock with tights. But is fab over skinnies too. Not maternity. Just very fashionably boxy. If it wasn't grey - it would be mine.

I think I have to try it. This might be a case where investing in one special piece is better than 3 mediocre ones. I have not been moved by a lot of knitwear lately and I could use a couple of pieces.

One more question. A 1 (size 2-4) or a 2 (size 6)? Karen Millen is always challenging size-wise, and this is only fitted in the shoulders.

Thank you!

fab piece---i haven't tried this piece, but my experience with this brand is that it runs small, so if you are more of a 4 than a 2, i would size up.

Thanks kkards, that's my inclination too. Just needed someone to tell me I was sane. At least on that note.

Gorgeous! I'm a big fan of KM and this brand runs small. I have a KM store nearby and I'm often led in to temptation.... I can't imagine you'll have any regrets with this beautiful piece.

I really, really like this tunic on you just the way it is. I hope you keep it. KM runs supper small in my experience. I ahve some pieces from last year and in some I sized up two sizes to get a more relaxed fit.
