I am so in love with this coat! Although it looks like a satiny evening coat, it really is an effective nylon rain coat- a very nice surprise, as I wasn't expecting something so weather efficient.Betsey Johnson tends to run small, so I ordered a size up. It turned out I didn't need to do that, but oh well. That just means I can wear a bulky sweater underneath it. I have big shoulders and others are saying they are having issues with the shoulders being tight, so perhaps I'm better off, anyway.My only regret with this purchase is that I didn't live a little and get the red. Mind you, the black is just gorgeous, but once you see it in person, you can tell how it's the perfect little red coat. It isn't as shiny as the picture makes it out to be- just the right amount of mellow gloss.
