MarycraftsWomen's Formal Office Business Work Jacket Skirt Suit Set

I usually buy suits at Macy’s when I can find them on sale. 2 weeks ago I had to shed $200 at Zara for a suit that I needed urgently. I never found a suit that fits as well as this Marycrafts. I am Italian and I drape and sew as a hobby therefore I am picky with fitting. This suit checks all the important marks for me. I looked carefully at the pictures of the suit posted by the vendor and customers to understand the cut and shape of the suit, the jacket especially, before ordering, and knew it would have complemented my hourglass figure but I think it would complement many other body shapes as well. It is super comfortable, very flattering, fabric is relatively thick and does not look cheap (I got in in black), lining is soft and well cut and well sewn onto the jacket -not like many linings that are hard, badly cut, badly sewn, and get everything out of shape- , good solid stitching, it can be washed in water, it has some stretch. The skirt is a nice knee length. The cut of the jacket and skirt are better than many pret a porter. This suit is everything I always wanted in a suit. Also Amazon recommendation on size was spot on for me. I am 5.5, 144lbs, 34D/DD and I ordered a 10. If fits like a glove and because it does not stretch out like a bodycon outfit, but it is still perfectly fit, it looks elegant and professional too. I could not be happier with this suit!

This outfit fit like a glove. I am 5’1” and weigh about 130lbs. My measurements are 39, 29, 39. I ordered a size 8 in the Gray, and am pretty satisfied. I was worried that because the suit was so reasonably priced that it would be cheap but it’s pretty well made. I’ve worn it a few times now and it’s still holding up. The skirt material is great, very stretchy but loose enough to have a professional look. However, the waist of the skirt is a little snug and has no elastic, so beware of that. Of course since I am very short the hem hit a little low, (mid calf) but since the suit doesn’t come in petite that was to be expected. I was afraid the jacket would be questionable because I am busty and tend to have trouble with tops but the stretchy material allowed ample room and although there is a little tugging in the chest area the buttons are big and sewed on well so I had no problems.

Skirt fits well but jacket was a size too small. I don’t like the way the zipper was sewn in, because where it sits, it protrudes a little from the back and it looks like you’re wearing a sanitary device. I suppose the right sized jacket would have hidden that, but maybe not.They should allow these to be sold as separates so you can get the right sized skirt and the right sized jacket.

This suit won me a favorable divorce, full custody and my dream job. 😂 And I promise you the suit did 40% of the talking each time. I’m shocked that this suit isn’t rated higher.This is my FAVORITE suit. The fit is beyond flattering and forgiving. Having a small bust, the swan neck is PERFECT. Large lapels laying on a smaller bust isn’t as flattering as this more structured style, which makes my neck look so elegant when my hair is up. Definitely a hair up kind of suit to show off this lovely neck. Swan necks are not popular so now I’m obsessed with a style that I just can’t find. 😩I’ve gained weight since I last bought this suit and am seriously considering buying the same one, same color (blue), different size. It is stretchy without being frumpy. It strikes the perfect balance between structure and stretch. I have washed it in the machine numerous times and it looks great each time. Not a fussy suit at all. Thin enough for warmer months and thick enough for colder. Just a well-made, well-designed gorgeous suit. Buy it.

I am rating this suit based on price & quality.You have to use the size guide. You cannot select based on your "regular" size. I have a 40-inch full bust, 32-inch high waist and 45-inch hips, which made it slightly challenging to select a size. I am usually a size 12, but I settled on a size 14. This way I could let the skirt seams out just a bit if it was too fitted, for my taste, on the hips. I did not want to bother getting a size 16 and having to tailor *both* the blazer and skirt.The size 14 looks really good. The jacket is shaped very well, almost as if tailored to my waist & shape. The sleeves are strangely short, but not short enough to look silly. You cannot comfortably wear a long sleeve top under the jacket. Skirt fits surprisingly well. It is stretchy, so it expands but also gathers where my hips are widest. I am going to ask the tailor to take the seams out as much as possible at the hips.Suit is unlined. Obvious stitching at the hems of the skirt and jacket really takes this suit down a notch. The fabric is an "okay" weight, but the suit will probably need to be hand-washed or dry-cleaned if it is going to last a decent amount of time.Considering price, quality and fit, I'll be keeping this suit but not buying again from the brand. If the fabric & stitching were better, I would buy it in 2-3 other colors.

Perfect for business. Lightweight, soft and true to the fit. Easy care, light iron needed when it arrives.
