Rated 4 out of 5Â by lucy-page Worth it.
Though statement coats are absolutely my favourite type of clothing, I was hesitant to pay so much money for a this - I'm glad I did. It's not quite how I'd imagined it from the picture - the detailing on the sleeves is much brighter and not as subtle as I'd hoped, but it's still a lovely piece and such good quality. Seriously, I couldn't get over how great the fabric felt, and it's incredibly comfortable. I'll probably be wearing it every day over the winter - it's quite toasty with a sweater underneath, but if you're from a country where it gets properly cold (i.e. not Australia) this is probably more of a Spring/Autumn jacket.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by p1gp3n like a collectable item
after i bought this, i couldn't decide if it's unique or over the top. i initially agreed with the reviewer who said this is "trying too hard". but after staring at it for a week, i've come to the conclusion that it's just very different. as many others have mentioned. this fits very roomy. i got my regular size and yes, it fits very loose, with the sleeves covering most of my hands, but that's how it's meant to fit. i'm sure sizing down would still have the same effect though. the embellishment is quite exquisite, and the beads seem sturdy enough that they won't fall off willy-nilly. for me, i feel that i do appreciate that it's a unique design, but i wouldn't say it's versatile enough to go with everything.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Lovee Great staple item
I saw this on the website and kept deciding whether or not I wanted to purchase this.
I am so glad I did.
The embelishments are unique, its well made, and by adjusting the strings on the waist , it provides a personal fit choice, the same with the strings on the bottom which can tighten the jacket around you or loosen it up for a more casual look.
There are 4 functional pockets on the jacket , which can be used, but I like to keep my pockets flat. Definite staple piece.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by ellcie fitting for a medium on 5'3/130lbs
reviews speak for themselves LOVE LOVE this jacket, so although i could go on and on about it, everyone else already has so ditto....so i will just comment on how a medium fits someone 5'3, 130 lbs. well; not ideally but do-able. i waited too long and the Xs and S were sold out so i crossed my fingers and ordered a medium. when i first tried it on i was so sad cause it looked like a potatoe sack until i played with the drawstrings. i pulled it so the jacket bunched at the back and it looked great, front and back. i ended up stitching through the drawstring with my sewing machine so it stayed the way i wanted. worked perfectly. arms are still a bit too long, but i think it works cause of the oversized looked. so just if someone my size is considering the medium....if you really love the jacket, and dont mind an oversized look, with a bit of play it can work without it looking like you're wearing a jacket thats 2 sizes too big. with a bit of play...it looks like , its the intended look.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Cheryll Totally fun piece! :)
First this coat is not 'huge' as so many have reported. I typically wear an XS or S and the small in this coat was perfect not 'huge' at all so please no worries on the size thing -- it's true to size for a coat that is supposed to be just that a 'coat' that one would wear sweaters under. I was surprised at how soft and worn in it felt and sure the embellishment is 'Over the Top' but that is the great FUN of it and the photos clearly show this aspect! Also, the worn in distressed feel and look of it are a tonic to the glitz and sparkle. It may not be for the faint of heart fashionista or for anyone too young (as would be intimidating perhaps) but for those who can pull off unique pieces this is a great addition -- it takes a practical jacket and turns it into a stunner for weekend kicking around or travelling. LOVE IT! :) Cheers!

Beautifully embellished jacket but gave it 4 stars because it is so large for its size and, honestly, do not know how any person who is petite in height can wear it - but I could be wrong! :) Loved the design and the weight of the jacket but think even an XS would be too large for me........the Small was much too large, unfortunately. Had been waiting for so long to see it again. Gorgeous jacket but on the larger side of the size chart. A time when I wish I was much taller!

Rated 3 out of 5Â by chickenmama A little too much
Bought this for my daughter, and she is very artistic and stylish. She just did not like the heavy embellishments on this jacket, AT ALL. Her words were, "Mom, it's trying too hard". The work on it is amazing, but just too over the top and heavy for our taste. But, obviously a lot of other people love it.
