@TexasMom1  I ordered a Medium in this (which is the size I wear about 80% of the time in Linea) because I wanted between 3 and 4 inches over my bust measurement so that it wouldn't be tight if I decide to wear a heavier sweater under it.  I hope this helps.  I have the faux shetland v-neck sweater andI ordered size medium even though a small would have fit.  I wanted it a little on the loose size for leggings.

According the Louis on his web set.  The weight will be much heavier than the sweater.

Dang, that is a thing of beauty. I recently bought a pair (feel free to giggle) of Spanx faux leather leggings that are actually rather fabulous, and they'd be spectacular with this sweater.

 

If I were to order, I would pay attention to the hip measurement as I would want to zip it up.

I ordered xl my regular size since I am busty and it hangs nicely behind as well.    I hope I get both my sweaters this weekend so that I can wear one to a fundraiser dinner this coming weekend my order is still processing.

Re: New Sweater Coat!

[ Edited ]

After deliberating all day I ordered the charcoal/blue, and the wine/spice. 

 

The blue/black MM sweater will look great under the charcoal/blue, I think ... and I have a wine turtleneck cashmere that will be fabulous with the wine/spice.

 

I'm hoping for cooler weather in New Orleans over Thanksgiving weekend ... so I can strut my stuff in these.

@SoX - I know it was hard all the colors look fabulous I was only going to get the blue/grey and then the fushia/geeen but decided to add the wine/spice as well.

@SoX, it could go either way - we could have short sleeve weather, or it might be a bit cooler by Thanksgiving. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!  Right now we've been having record highs every day.  I'm tired of wearing my summer clothes at this point!

@gardensla in lieu of a hip measurement do you think the sweep would suffice?

@shoesnbags  ...  Thanks, Shoes ... maybe it'll be cool enough for just the sweater coat without sweaters underneath ... I'll save those for our Chicago temps!

@rochelleS

 

It does look straight up and down, so that would probably be close?
