And - it was my own fault for not paying attention.

I bought A209614 Susan Graver's faux leather trench (the one with the fuzzy faux fur collar) in my usual SG size. My other winter rain coat had seen better days and this was inexpensive enough and no shipping or handling.

When it arrived, I tried it on and it fit fine ... but I had no room to wear a sweater or jacket underneath, and I always layer in the winter. I have to walk to subways, wait for taxis and buses, walk around Manhattan, and layers are needed on cold blustery, rainy and snow days.

I should have noticed that the models were wearing it over thin shirts, and that it was a close-fitting coat. When I reviewed the video after the coat arrived, I realized that.

Anyway - I had to return it for a larger size. My first size return ever in more than 15 years of shopping at QVC!

BTW - not a bad coat for the money! For around the City in inclement weather - this is just fine! Even the collar isn't that bad!
