Boléro polyvalent Artizan de Robin Barré

I have to admit I had this bolero for almost a month before I tried it on...I had just finished reading the reviews and thought,"uh-oh, it's too late to send this back, I hope it fits". Thankfully it fits just fine. I am 5'2" and 120 lbs. but I don't have thin arms. I find some designers make very thin sleeves and I'm careful when I buy from them to order up a size but I had no problem with this bolero. I think you have to wear it over bare arms like the model did on TSC and then it is just fine, very comfortable and so soft against your skin.

Have to agree with previous review. Don't waste your time on this item. My arms are slim and I had difficulty with the fit and having it lay correctly and comfortably. The arms are not cut correctly...much too skimpy.

I love the Artizan line and am so glad they are now available here. This is the first product that hasn't been satisfactory. The sleeves on this lovely top are made for arms are slim to thin. Even after just trying it on for a minute, my arms felt so squeezed that it was a relief to take it off. Also, I thought the back would be a bit longer. I've been thoroughly pleased with their other products so it was difficult to say that I wouldn't recommend this to a friend. If the friend was young with thin arms, I would recommend it for her only.
