Promising review: "I'm petite - 5'3" and 150 lbs. I normally wear medium for all things, but the small fit perfectly with a thin sweater underneath - the sleeves hit right below my wrists and the length right below my knees. The medium was too big on me - sleeves were too long and looked too oversized. The coat is made well with a good weight in the fabric. Looks really classic." — DC
