***LOVE LOVE LOVE***
First Smythe blazer and now I want another!!! Wore this all day yesterday - love the fit - I can button it if needed (a bit tight though) but that's not how I plan to wear it as this will be more of a casual look for me, rather than a true "buttoned-up" look. I would rather have a great fit in the shoulders, arms and chest (34A) which is what I got. Such a stunning piece - chic, not stodgy at all. The cut-out detail in the back is unique! I'm 5'6", 116 lbs and bought a size 4. Perfection. Quality seems great to me and I'm a tough customer!

Great cut but poor quality
The jacket is a great fit but the stitching is not good and looks super cheap. The back hem was doubled up and has threads poking out which I don't think you should see at this price point. I'm hoping to see if I can exchange for another one as maybe this one missed quality control...

Beautiful but....
Typically I take a 00 in JCrew blazers, and the 2 fit my narrow frame perfectly. The blazer is beautifully cut and fitted but it is lined in a **very** bright white satin which looks odd and also makes rolling the sleeve look awful. Also, I would have expected the gold hardware (buttons) to be a bit more heavy-duty for the price.

Who's that girl?!
I have submitted a detailed review of the sizing, in the "camel" version of this jacket. I hope it helps you. Now I will address the exquisite quality. I slipped this on, looked in the mirror and immediately thought, "B***!". Yes, people are going to hate you when they see you rocking this puppy.If you are fortunate enough to be compatible with the size specs, (me: size 0 or 2 in J Crew, size 4 in this, more of a junior than a missy body). This with a pair of jeans and sexy shoes, epitomizes "casual chic". It can also be worn as work wear with a dress..a certain Duchess has been doing just that for several years now in her day job. I can't afford it, but I'll sell the farm if I have to. My heart skipped a beat when I saw it in person. give it a try, ShopBop has a very generous return policy. Don't blame me if you buy two!

The BEST Blazer
I was skeptical that this blazer would live up to the hype. But after trying several others by premium brands including Theory, Rag & Bone, and Zadig & Voltaire, I decided on this one. The first size 2 I got fit perfectly in the shoulders and arms, but I could barely button it. However, the size 4 was definitely too big and would have required extensive tailoring. (Size 2 in every other model of Smythe blazer was too large, especially the patch pocket style). But after trying all the others, I decided to give the size 2 another try -- and the second one I got fit just perfect! I was able to button it (they must vary ever so slightly in sizing). So, my message to you -- if the first one you try doesn't fit perfectly, order a second! The quality and fit of this blazer is so much better than literally everything else out there that once I tried it, I couldn't go with another brand.

Lots of little problems
The item I most look forward to happens to be the biggest disappointment. I'm usually a size 0 but since this blazer is supposed to run small, I ordered the size 2 and it fits. While the top part of the blazer fits very well, the back of the bottom part sticks out and the sleeves are at least 2 inches too long even though my arms are of average length (if not slightly longer). In addition, the way the shoulders are padded is a little old fashioned and the cut of the lapel isn't very flattering. I have another blazer with a similar back detail where the middle portion is shorter, but that one has a pair of real vents which makes the fit more forgiving and sophisticated whereas this one is stitched down. All these little issues and the quality of the fabric make the blazer way too expensive for what it is, so I'm returning it.

Weird fit
I really want to like this jacket, but it fits wonderfully in the shoulders and back and is tiny in the front. There's no way I can button it, so there's no way I can keep it. It's a shame, it's hard to find quality women's blazers.

Size Up!
I am usually a size 6 and ordered the size 8 - fit was perfect. It is a well cut and structured blazer. The highlight feature for me was also it's downside. The unusual back cut out actually flared out on the ends showing the white (why white?) lining of the Black blazer. The area sat better with the button done up but when worn opened, it really flared out. The fabric was quite thin and when held up against light/sun, you could see so much light filtering through. I did not feel the price warranted the overall look of the jacket. Sadly, I felt compelled to return it.

fit. fit. fit.
So I read the reviews and ordered a size up to a 10. I am usually an 8. I am a 36DD. The fit in the shoulders and arms is perfect but buttoning the gold button just under the bust area is a no go for me. I am debating going up to a 12 and or just keeping it because everything else works. When you have a larger bust you just get accustomed to things not fitting ideally across the chest area. With that, the Jackets (i ordered a blue and black- because there was a limited amount) are beautifully made, light weight and super chic!
