Sending back A259620 Olive!!!

I ordered A259620 before the last show aired and I finally received today, Friday 11/7. Turns out my order for the stone/black coat, olive swing sweater and POSH black tneck went to California instead of Georgia. 12 days to go from Lancaster, Pa to Georgia. The wagon trains would have been impressed. I am not. Not only was everything untraceable through UPS, my olive swing sweater in medium is not a medium and since there are no measurements to compare with, I don't know if it is a large or extra large. I have the three other colors in either small and medium and this is definitely inches larger all over including the arms. I can't give a heads up what size my return really is. So be on the look out for an olive medium that is really a L or XL. I'll put a note inside the package but I don't think they even bother reading. {#emotions_dlg.mad} Hope I get a small or medium olive. Since this sweater sold so well, hopefully there will be reorders and other colors in the works.

Oh, good grief! How awful is that re: your Olive Swing Sweater? How did you like the Stone/Black coat?

I have a large olive swing sweater that is about to go back - i need a medium. Want to swap? It was WAY bigger than any large I've ever tried on In my life!

Gosh, how awful! The wrong size labels must have been sewn in the sweaters that were way too large.

My Mulberry Swing Sweater is perfectly sized (small). In fact, I wore it yesterday to PT. I had the Olive small on wait list, and then like a fool I cancelled my wait list order (thought I had ordered too much!).

I love my coat. I was a little concerned the fur would make it too bulky and I am not a fan of faux fur; but this fur feels dense and I don't look like a bear. The only part I am not crazy about is wearing the black fur side showing with the belt being stone and black fabric. Doesn't really compliment the fur side so I tried with a black leather long tie belt and like that much better. I like the plain silhouette of this coat and love stone and black. I ordered medium and since I don't wear bulky sweaters under my coats the fit is perfect.I think this coat will be in style for a very long time. I am very pleased.
Did you get this coat?

Yes, in Black Medium, my normal size and it felt too skimpy in the hips and a little tight in the upper arms---so I sent back for a Large and it has not arrived yet. I'm worried the large will be too big in the chest--so we shall see. Maybe the Medium I got was marked wrong. I'll soon know. I liked that it was lightweight. I have Dennis Basso coats that are heavy.

I am sending back 1 Small Olive.

I had ordered and received my XS Olive earlier. I ordered the accompanying skirt in Small. Guess what they sent me? You guessed right! The Small Olive Tunic.

I have seen received the correct item. Going to the post office today to send back the tunic. One of you who was waiting for the Small will be getting it.

I sent back a small olive also. It was much too big. I did get the stone in small which fits perfect. It seems as though the olive runs rely big. I did put myself on waitlst for a small. Can anyone tell me how the black runs in the small? Should I stay on waitlst or is that color running large also? Thanks, stay well.

Re: Sending back A259620 Olive!!!

I wore the Mulberry today, and it fits just fine. The sweater is completely sold out now, and no wait list is available; otherwise, I'd be ordering another one.
