I just thought I'd post here in case anyone interested hasn't seen it, but Yoox have dropped a bit more off their prices / moved onto 'Sale 3'. I've snapped up a few pieces, I've yet to see whether any / all of them fit but I suspect I'll only be keeping two at most: Crudo 100% cashmere DB topcoat - I love the look of the cut, but at 36 it may be too small - fingers crossed as this is almost perfect otherwise: Crudo Carracci wool topcoat - very poorly fitted on the model, but I got the last 38 and I suspect it'll look nice, certainly not expensive if its even half decent: Carracci Costume National cashmere / wool coat - I only saw the pinstripes when I zoomed in, but it got my interest. Deeply discounted, I'm now hoping a 40 in CN fits me (usually a 38 in everything else): Costume National

People frequently say Costume National runs small, so there you go... IME, it runs slim, but not a full size small; depends on the season. It's hard to tell with coats like that, as it could be sized with a blazer underneath in mind, or not. Looks nice, regardless. Costume National makes some nice silhouettes.

Myself, I'm eyeing some Alexander McQueen pants...
