I loved this outfit, but it looks much nicer on the tall model! I am 5'1". The outfit fit very nicely, but the top was just too long for my short torso. The cut is flattering, and I could certainly wear it, but I look a little overwhelmed by it, so will be (reluctantly) returning it. It is super comfortable, though the glitter-trim neckline and jacket cuffs may be a tiny bit scratchy if you are sensitive to that sort of thing. The jacket/shell top is all one piece, which I found hard to tell from the picture. I find this really handy, as it always looks neat and in place, but don't count on just wearing the jacket. Sort of like a feminine answer to the tux with tails! I bought this to wear for my orchestra playing, and it would have been a great fit for that. Also perfect for party or going-out wear. A little dressy for the office, I think.
