I bought this coat to replace a polyester-wool blend asymmetrical winter coat. This coat fits well and is flattering. The fabric is good quality and not too thin. You can wear the collar standing up or folded down. I usually button the inner button and two lowest outer buttons and fold the collar down. The buttons have held up so far, but they do feel like they might eventually come off with repeated use. So far, though, they are holding up, and the coat came with replacement buttons. My previous coat had an asymmetrical zipper, and I was worried buttons would be a hassle, but I have adjusted quickly.I am 5'2" and bought the small coat. The sleeves are a tiny bit long but have not proven to be a problem. When buttoned all the way up with the collar standing up, the collar is a bit tall, but I would only need this in extremely cold weather, where extra coverage would not be a bad thing.Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and am excited I found a replacement for my previous asymmetrical coat. Great price for a good quality coat that is stylish and warm.
