Review on πŸ‘š Calvin Klein Women's Button Blazer - Stylish Women's Clothing for Suiting & Blazers by Molly Gordon

Revainrating 4 out of 5

CK petite and standard sizes are very different

I was surprised at how different the sizes/measurements are for Calvin Klein petite and standard women's suits. At 5'4", I wear both dressy and regular depending on the style and brand. I sometimes find that petite jackets/skirts/pants are too short, but standard suits are almost always too long and require a fit ( which can be expensive) so I usually go petite when available.I recently tried on a standard size CK suit (a black two button blazer that looks exactly like this one and a matching skirt) which goes to was long but otherwise goes well with a size 4 blazer and a size 2 skirt.ordered this blazer a size 6P but it was too small for the shoulders/upper back.I ended up returning it for a size 8P which sits well on the shoulders/arms and is slightly larger in everything else, but overall looks and feels better than 6P. For some reason, the small pieces of a CK suit at Revain feel more expensive than their full-size counterparts. But it is more difficult It's become hard to find well made classic suits in neutral tones without shiny zippers, new buttons or other embellishments. So I'm happy with this purchase and think it's a relatively good deal.
