Great quality jacket
On stage presentation in this jacket was fabulous. Great quality. He did have to buy a larger size to get the sleeve length but a tailor fixed the shoulder to a perfect fit. Will buy again in another color.

JUST LIKE THE PIC! Gold to black gradient! Perfect!
We bought black and gold, gradient, small. Son is 5’7”, 145lbs and this is perfect on him! Some people say it looks nothing like the pic, couple of the pics do look awry…and I almost didn’t make my purchase based on that pic! I am soooo glad I did, ours looks exactly like the pic with a nice gradient from gold to black. If you are turned away by the one not so great pic, I say buy it, ours is perfect just like the pic! Great fit! Awesome lapel! Love this jacket!

Terrible product
I have bought other sequin jackets from this brand that I absolutely LOVE ! The colors on all of them have always been a little off from the pictures but in a good way, they are more subtle beautiful hues and expensive designer looking. This jacket however is total trash! The colors are bright and obnoxious unlike the picture, and the quality is HORRIBLE! The fabric is so thin and stiff you can’t move at all in it, it feels like you’re trying to wear a cardboard jacket covered in cheap glitter that was glued on. I ordered the exact same size as the previous ones I’ve bought and this one I can’t even get the button to come close to closing, the sizing is very off and runs extremely small, while my other ones I have still fit perfectly so it isn’t me that has changed size.So disappointed because of how much I love my other ones, I really wanted to love this one too.
