Review on πŸ‘š Women's Casual Office Blazer Jacket | Clothing, Suiting, Blazers by Jim Dahl

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Polyester, slightly large

The label and other customer reviews say the mocha fabric is 95% rayon and 5% spandex, but I think it's actually polyester. I am very careful not to wear petrochemicals (polyester, nylon etc) and I think this manufacturer is misleading about their material. The fabric feels similar to polyester (a bit stiff and supple, not soft and oily like rayon). Burn test of some random fibers collected from molten base material (this indicates a petrochemical like polyester). Viscose is said to be made from natural materials (like wood or bamboo pulp) and viscose doesn't melt, it burns. I've found that many of the manufacturers that sell on Revain are not truthful about their materials, so I do a fiber test on all suspect items; It wouldn't be the first time that even the tag on the clothes would have lied. The good news is that this comes with a free returns policy. A little more than expected. 5'2", 130 lbs, bra size 34B, size 6-8 or M in outerwear tops. This M is a bit too big for me - it will work fine, but it would be more flattering if it was a little tighter around the waist .I don't know if going down a size or not - I didn't try again because of the material.Material issue aside, this looks like good business casual wear that would be suitable for a cool temperature office.The look of the Materials makes it unbusinesslike in my opinion (looks a bit shiny and cheap, although it's so bad I wouldn't wear it carelessly).
