Re: My Composition jacket just arrived!!

I ordered the Blue and the Black. Loved them so much i ordered the tobacco. I normally wear a medium in Linea zip jackets but I got the large size  so I can layer underneath. They are perfect for me.

Re: My Composition jacket just arrived!!

I finally order the black and white in xs.  It's a bit snug which surprised me. I gauged the size based off the jacquard tortoiseshell jacket which is perfect in xs and much roomier in small, prefer the xs in this. So, I'll pull out my trusty tape measure and compare the click here measurements. A pain in the tush, yep, yet I have received way too many mis sized/tagged garments to know that this does happen. Darling jacket, love the print which for me will lend itself with a multitude of mix n match options.

 

I love the tobacco color alot. I own the very similar color in the jacquard tortoiseshell jacket and must say it's probably my favorite. Love how the color pops giving it a bit of an edge. I imagine that the tobacco does the same in this composition jacket too.

Wow rochelleS.  That is weird!  I would say my XXS composition jacket fits similar to my XS tortoiseshell jacket (which I ended up getting in olive and topaz).  Yum!

 

I hope you figure out if you need to try another XS or go up to a small.  How frustrating.

I found the xs more fitted than other LDO tops, which is fine, but unexpected. I love the material and I actually like fitted clothing better on my body. But I can't gain more than 5 lbs and say this jacket would look good zipped up. #dietincentive

@kate2357 my normal size in linea jackets is a med, but I chose to size up because of the zipper aspects and tummy/hip issues, if I didn't want to zip it up, I probably would fit in the Medium. also, I wanted to layer and I also look at the material content and shrinkage.

I also have the tortoise jacket (3) in XS and it is a closer fit than most of my Linea jackets.  I ordered the Composition jacket in XXS and the fit is perfect for me.  Got the blue and the tobacco.  I love the fabric too.
