I would try a 42 if I were you, and then taper below the arms to a 38 and use the length that has suited you best. I'm now about to repair the arm (twisting is of the lining and how I attached it) and see if I can put the jacket into rotation - the layers of silk are lovely and after a long separation I'm realising this jacket does have potential. begoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563634774686575356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25902805503350300.post-37523636554619184512016-04-15T02:46:04.371-07:002016-04-15T02:46:04.371-07:00Must say though in the photos yours looks very goo...Must say though in the photos yours looks very good, love the colour and can't see any twisting.

Second attempt I went up 2 sizes to a 38. Still too small; sleeves too tight and difficult to get into. Do I go up to a 40 or 42? I'm at a loss. Also worried as it was for a wedding next month. Time is running out and I really don't want to go to Zara (just watched a programme about the Chinese children left at home while their parents work thousands of miles away in clothing factories ...)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613158761619233548noreply@blogger.com
