I am a new member of this brand, and I've purchased quite a few items within the last several months. I am a size 14 or XL and several items I've had to return because they're too small. But I've also kept many items like the cashmere tops and sweaters. This poncho is unbelievably classy and so well made. I'm very impressed. I dont Think the belt looks cheap like one reviewer said. It's perfect for the poncho. The arms aren't overly long but so well finished with one large button. The belt goes around the back inside which I like. You can probably change that if you want to emphasize your shape. It's not tight,on me, it's perfect. I could see how any of these OS items would be big on someone petite. At the sale price, don't hesitate.
