Belle Poque Women's Short Sleeve Shrug Open Front Cotton Cardigan Bolero Jacket

Comment

52" - 195lbs Ordered the 2XL - Big Mistake! I have a 37 waist and I was worried that the XL might be too snug, but turns out there is a HUGE leap between XL and 2XL. Granted I didnt buy one of each and compare them side by side, but the size chart alone shows the big difference between the two. Obviously I returned it and then decided not to reorder it based on two personal prefferences. 1. The fabric is not my fav, I expected it to be softer but it was kinda starchy and stiff, possibly would have been better after a wash but I cant say. 2. Im short and my waist is higher than average. So even if this was a snug fit itd still be too long for the look I usually go for. Sucks for me but I bet this looks really nice on taller people. Overall decent product and I wouldnt rate it down for either of my nitpicks. However, for me it gets a 4 star for having such a leap in size between XL and 2XL. Six inches is a big difference and they probably could benefit from adding another size.

I have several In different colors. I subscribe to one of those dress rental subscriptions for my professional wardrobe but I can’t abide all the sleeveless dresses so I Keep these on hand for less formal days but modesty. Fabric is thick, lays nicely and looks great after repeated washing. Have been using these for a few months and still look new.

I usually wear Extra Small and bought this bolero shrug to wear over a dress size Extra Small. Thought for sure a Small would fit, or may even be too big. It is too small, very tight, making it hard to get on and off. Should have ordered a Medium, but most Mediums would be way too big. Some Smalls are also too large. Color is orange red, not American Flag red or cherry red. I wanted it to wear over a blue-and-white striped maxi dress. Disappointed, as if it fit, planned to order in other colors. The bolero arrived wrinkled from shipping, and the wrinkles did not come out in the dryer. Tried pressing using tissue paper between iron and fabric, without much luck. If you have a garment steamer, it would probably remove wrinkles.

The material is nice but wrinkles and is kind of stiff so it didnt lay right in the front. I fixed it though by sowing the front back a little so it landed at my sides instead of across chest (see pics). It also has pleats in the back and on the sides which is fine,but not shown in the sellers pics. It is true to size (I wear size small tops in womens and size medium in Jrs. I ordered the medium in this and it fits perfect).
