I'm considering buying a burberry coat size 40. I am usually a small so I guess between a 36 and a 38. I was wondering if it would be worth buying this coat and having it tailored? The shoulders would not need to be changed since i have wide shoulders so i would only need to have the coat slimmed down. Thanks!

There is no universal size so its best to go by measurements.

Slimming a coat down is a simple process and can be done easily by a good tailor.
