    ann d sizing this season is wtf, at least regarding outerwear. tried the olive trench and xl was 4 sizes too big, a small fit to a t. that is very odd and it seemed the same for 3 or 4 other coats

      If you look at the runway, a lot of the outerwear is meant to be oversized. Try one of the blazers and you will still be XL.

        ^i think it was just the outerwear, but it was beyond oversized. i looked like a child wearing my dad's coat. was too bad because i was in love with the look and texture of it.

          The idea was to tone down the volume with the belt, like this.

            that makes sense, it was just way too boxy of a silhouette given my squared shoulders.

              actually, in my experience most ann stuff runs at least one or two sizes big, but yeah, outerwear and some shirts are more exaggeratedly oversized.

                I was literally dying for this exact Ann coat. I am a 46/48, but when I tried on the Small, the sleeves completely swallowed my hands and the shoulder seam came halfway to my elbow. We did have a good laugh in the store. It truly felt like I was trying on a large. Even the XS would have been over sized. The model on the runway must be wearing an XXS. I've found this to be a consistent problem. Stores buy S, M, L = M, L, XL. Therefore, no small and no sale.

                      This seems like a WTF to me. A 10K+ RO men's coat at thecorner.com. Is that right? It's cotton, metal, and 4% silver.
