Help w/measurements again please! tysm

Hi there,

 

So, I appreciate the help I received the other day re my measurements for a coat, that I did end up ordering and it was available when I ordered it, but it swtiched to back order the next day or so, I canceled it. I'm SO glad I did too, b/c now they've got a TSV in the same brand just a slightly different style coat, but it's everything I want and its $70 cheaper! lol

 

So, here are my measurements:

Across bust w/bra: 46" 

Waist: 45"

Hips 47"

Upper arms: 15"

 

Size Large measurements in A367602

Chest/bust: 50"

Waist: 47.75"

Hips: 52.5"

 

Size XL measurements in A367602

Chest/bust: 54"

Waist: 51.5"

Hips: 56.5"

 

I'm just not sure whether to get the L or XL. I am thinking the L, but I definitely don't want it to be tight, but I also don't want it to look huge/sloppy. With regards to the Large, the only thing I'm not sure about is the Waist is 47.75" and my waist is 45"...I just think that could be too tight, but heck I don't know. Does anyone here have this brand of jacket by chance? If you were me, what size would you go with??

 

I really appreciate your feedback, thanks in advance!!  Woman Happy

@BrandiDavis   I would go with the XL.  You definitely need more than 4" of ease in your bust area with a coat.  You'll be wearing sweaters under the coat.

@BrandiDavis   That's a nice coat.  I think I might like the blackberry better, but you can never go wrong with black.

@BrandiDavis   If like me, have a lot of black pants, etc. I'd go with the blackberry.
