I ordered my regular size and if I wear anything more than a tee underneath, it feels tight.

Anyway, i am petite 5'2, usually a size 0-2 and so i ordered a P0. I would say it fits TTS, if not for the sleeves being a bit tad short. I was able to layer (simple long sleeve shirt & sweater) and it kept me very warm on said trip, snow and all. I loved the gold buttons and the camel color goes with everything, very stylish IMO. I was so happy with how it looks that i also ordered it in navy.<br /><br />Hope this helps!Miss Penny Z.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09439916041946017282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-80101328115322143342010-01-03T20:54:35.744-05:002010-01-03T20:54:35.744-05:00I have a Lady Day with THinsulate and you definite...I have a Lady Day with THinsulate and you definitely need to size up one size.jcrew1985https://www.blogger.com/profile/09743948624363959686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-17363564971788996452010-01-03T19:27:47.278-05:002010-01-03T19:27:47.278-05:00Katherine, I just realized you are considering the...Katherine, I just realized you are considering the Lady Day with Thinsulate and the one I have is without. Not sure how it fits with Thinsulate. I found my Plaza coat with Thinsulate to be a little snugger than other coats in the same size, without the extra lining. Hopefully someone here can comment on the Thinsulate model.dickfiddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00124128479228047382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-32151326226893684872010-01-03T19:25:02.518-05:002010-01-03T19:25:02.518-05:00Katherine, I have the Lady Day coat from a couple ...Katherine, I have the Lady Day coat from a couple years ago and there is no room to spare in the shoulders or bust. I took my usual size, although I have a larger bust and shoulders and I can wear it easily enough but definitely no layering underneath. If in doubt or planning to layer, SU in the Lady Day. Also, the double-cloth is a lovely fabric, very refined, but not as warm as the wool-cashmere, IMO. Still, you can't go wrong with the classic style of the Lady Day. It's so feminine and flattering.<br /><br />Would love to hear a review if you purchase the Station Coat.dickfiddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00124128479228047382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-41628132682607686962010-01-03T18:50:10.086-05:002010-01-03T18:50:10.086-05:00With a coat I would order the larger size as well ...With a coat I would order the larger size as well esp. for layering in colder climates.(original) Gennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209889879826124486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-23058089212491150062010-01-03T17:47:10.257-05:002010-01-03T17:47:10.257-05:00Katherine, I can't comment on the Station coat...Katherine, I can't comment on the Station coat but IMO the Lady Day runs small in the shoulders and I would err on the side of larger rather than smaller.Hexiconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00834188332983426624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-14979952677715150122010-01-03T17:00:44.145-05:002010-01-03T17:00:44.145-05:00I am debating between the Wool-cashmere Station Co...I am debating between the Wool-cashmere Station Coat in Camel and the Double-cloth Lady day coat with Thinsulate in Black. I like the length and Thinsulate option of Lady day, but I like the double-breastedness of Station for warmth. I am also unsure of size. I am 5'7", 135lbs pear shaped. I wear a 6 in the Francie skirt, and am most comfortable in medium size sweaters and tops. Do these run true to size-charts?

If you're interested, i would advise calling JC for the measurements.
