I ordered this top in size S in both Black and Teal. The Black S fits very well. It hugs the curves, without being skintight. The Teal S seems to be irregular. It is tight around the bust, the sleeves are shorter than the Black S (too short for 3/4-sleeve), and the length seems to be about 2 inches shorter than the Black S. I am keeping the Black and returning the Teal.

I actually ended up ordering thses from another merchant because the khaki color was not in stock in my size. I was unable to post a comment on that site, so I thought it would be helpful to other shoppers to do so here. When I ordered the Anywear pant from here, I had to exchange the size 4 for a size 6 because it apparently runs small. On that basis, I ordered this pant in a size 6 too. Both fit well anad I am very pleased with the quality and style (for traveling light).

I tried these pants on again and discovered that my initial impression about the fit was wrong. I am between sizes...the 4 is too tight and the 6 is too loose. The pants fit fairly well through the hips, but the waist was too big on me. I was concerned about the fabric stretching, so I decided to return them, although I really did like the pants.

To recap: I ordered these in my usual Size 4 and found them to be exceeding snug and had to return them. I re-ordered in a Size 6 hoping for the best, as I liked the pants a great deal. They arrived this morning and fit me very well...not perfect, but more than acceptable. They fit smoothly through the hips and curve nicely with the bottom. The waist sits at a modern level just below the waist and has little "ease" to it, so I am hoping that the fabric holds its shape and does not stretch out with wear. If that happens, it will be easy to fix because there is a seam that runs through the back waist. I'll let you know how they hold up after my trip.

The pants just arrived. Too small! They are form-fitting like my Nike workout pants. Off the rack, I wear a size 4...except for designer pants when I often need to downsize to a size 2. Apparently, these run smaller than the typical ready-to-wear. They appear to be the perfect pant for travel - and just what I was looking for. I have just re-ordered them in a size 6 and hopefully they will fit. I'll post an update later.
