Hi, Maya -
Sorry I've been gone all day -- chasing my daughter & her roomate's stolen purses and cell phones (with a little help from the police and the GPS locator on her phone) That may turn into an OT thread just to vent!
Anyway, I measured my Small. It is 18 inches from the seam where the collar attaches to the body down to the bottom hem edge. I have some pics, but I was deliberating S vs M and don't know which size is in the pics.
If you haven't written off this jacket, I will take some pics in daylight tomorrow morning and post them. I am 5'5", a bit short waisted, but long in the rise. Mine ends just at the slimmest part of my waist and just below that (it is about 2.5 inches for the bottom waistband on the jacket).
Hope that helps some. And I will look into the pics in the a.m.
