1. Master Coat sz 38 I'd say it's a Theory type quality suit. This particular one was more of the sack suit fit. The chest was too tight and waist was too loose. Returned http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/MASTER...X/sts/sr_men80 2. John Varvatos coat sz 38 The sticker retailed for $1895. It has a really soft smooth wool/cashmere mix however it runs huge - about 2 sizes . Plus, for a $1895 jacket I'd not want cheap ass plastic buttons. Returned http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/JOHN+V...F/sts/sr_men80 3. Ferre Coat sz 40 Fits like a extra slim 38. Nice wool material but comes with cheap plastic buttons. It's more of a dressy coat. I don't think it will keep me warm. However, the fit is perfect. I'll keep it and shorten the jacket. http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/FERRE%...M/sts/sr_men80 4. Tessabit Como Waiting for delivery. It's has to be better than that ************* J Crew coat that costed me $260. http://www.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=3...C&sts=orders80 5. Tonello Waiting for delivery. I ordered the 36 - I think it might be too small. http://www.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=3...T&sts=orders80

Judging from the waist suppression and your description of the sizing, the Ferre is probably a women's coat. Glad you like it.

Thanks for posting, I've wondered about Master Coat as they often have decent looking stuff in my size.

so one out of three - 33% success rate? i'd say that's a pretty damn good batting average when it comes to yoox

I doubled check the coat after you post. It's a men's coat unless it was made for a flat chested female since women's coat chest section has a extra material for the breast to stick out.

I figured it's going after a burberry porsum/ dior style anorexic look.

Personally, I wouldn't order MC again. I put it in line with Theory and Hugo Boss Red label.
I can find plenty of Theory **** so I'd buy theory b4 MC.

buttons are on the right side, women's coats have them on the left.

Yeah, I'm glad because now I can skip their listing on Yoox - if it's Theory level, then I'd rather buy that since I know what fits me and can get it cheaper (bought a SC for $100 two weeks ago).

Again, love the Ferre you scored!

3. Ferre Altered sleeves and length - beautiful coat 4. Tessabit Como Waiting for delivery. It's has to be better than that ************* J Crew coat that costed me $260. Returned - nice coat but I didn't want to spend the money for alterations. http://www.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=3...C&sts=orders80 5. Tonello Waiting for delivery. I ordered the 36 - I think it might be too small. I kept this one because I like the fit. It's a bit fitted but I'll wear it with a thin sweater or a t shirt. Latest items purchased 6. Armani http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...L&sts=orders80 Returned.. They said it was a 38 - **** they sent a ******* 48. Nevertheless, It would have been a keeper if it fitted. Waiting for delivery http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...J&sts=orders80 http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...E&sts=orders80 http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...J&sts=orders80 http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...Q&sts=orders80 http://www1.yoox.com/item.asp?tskay=...K&sts=orders80 Does anyone have info on Massimo Alba - i.e. fit, quality, value? Purchases outside of Yoox Alife Chuck http://www.amazon.com/Alife-Chuck-Na...7912925&sr=8-1 These are comfortable and the price was right for casual wear. Yeah, it's not Common projects but I would not drop $300 for ******* sneakers. Diesel Newbie $35 http://piperlime.gap.com/browse/prod...scid=781247012 Andrew Marc leather jacket - $144 Bloomingdales Unbranded Brand Jeans 2 for $20 at urban outfitters J Brand Jeans Kane and Walker - $25 a piece from Barneys These are the most comfortable jeans. I can't get into the raw **** like the kiddies because my balls are too valuable. Allen Edmonds Wingtips - $144 from Nordstrom It's this model. http://www.onlineshoes.com/mens-alle...alf-p_id129067 Khakis from Brooks Brothers and Dockers Some RLBL from the Ralph Lauren store. I might have to return it because I like the cheap **** from yoox. I beginning to realize why go crazy buying expensive quality stuff when I'm usually done with what I have in about 4-6 wears.
