Completely agree with all of this. I went with my normal SS knit size (VI) and pulled a bit on the length to give it a little life - looked perfect.
Superego - you must be quite tall. I'm 6'2" and sz VI doesn't look nearly as short on me as your VII on you.
I don't know about that actually, it is fairly boxy by default, more so than the Bee from last year, and it has more stretch as well. The knit is also too thick to drape really well (until it softens) and I think that if sized up, it would simply look bad. Look at the Wrong Weather modeled picture, it doesn't work there.
Unlike loosely woven knits, it's one of those instances where the piece needs to be worn and stretched a bit to really look good (it'll be perfect after a season).
