Review on Orolay Womens Thickened Contrast Drawstring πŸ§₯ Women's Clothing & Coats: Stylish Jackets & Vests by Robert Lowry

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice jacket but didn't fit

Ordered jackets from Orolay - this and the popular Orolay women's thickened down jacket. I really liked both styles, but I didn't know which one would suit me best. Overall, both jackets were good quality for the price (no rips, seam issues, or zipper issues). The fabric of both coats seems cheaper than the more expensive brands but as expected given the low cost of the jackets. Both coats were very cute and stylish. I ordered this jacket a size small as it is the smallest currently available and the reviews said it should be larger. However, if XS were available I would order that size. I ordered another jacket (oversized) in size XXS bc. I thought it would suit me best given my build, despite numerous reviews of it running small or too tight in the shoulders/arms/chest (seems to be a common complaint in Orolay coat reviews). With all this I am sending this jacket back and keeping the other one. I'm 5 feet tall and weigh about 100 pounds with a petite, slim build and small breasts. Both jackets fit me very well on the whole upper body, also on the arms and shoulders. This jacket; However, it has been cut to flare past the hips. This gave me a really unflattering ballooning effect between my hips and knees while sitting more comfortably on it. It was an odd look, I felt a bit like a Dr. Seuss figure. The jacket was also long on me (as expected for my style and height/height) reaching to my knees. Also the tassels, which I really liked, were only a few centimeters off the ground (although I tried them barefoot. But they would still be very close to the ground even with winter boots on). style but the cut was odd to me. I liked how it looks in the other photos in the review so it might suit those who are taller or have more curves to fill out the jacket more. It just didn't work for my body type.
