You''ve got that right, but it sure does look good on the model. I bought it, so I''ll hope for the best. Thanks for the enablingDate: 1/4/2008 10:18:40 PM

I think it''s adorable Marvel!!! Just hit the purchase button...VS is sometimes hit or miss with clothing/outerwear, but they have a great return policy. Don''t forget to check online for free shipping deals or promos.
Misysu2, it sounds like they just didn''t finish the button-sewing technique. I.e., the loose ends from the shank (the shank is made by wrapping thread around the thread between the button and the coat) were not finished off by passing the loose ends back through the material and knotting. That sucks, I would have returned the coat based upon that as well. Hopefully it was just a fluke thing that happened and Marvel does not have the same experience.Date: 1/4/2008 11:29:29 PM

BE CAREFUL!!! I bought this coat from Victoria''s Secret about a month ago http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=3H-155460&page=1&cgname=OSCLOOUTWOO&rfnbr=3942
and the buttons WEREN''T SEWED ON! They thread them through the coat, wrapped thread around the button (not through) a hundred times, and then left the stray ends open! The buttons were already unraveling after just having tried the coat on. Needless to say, I returned it. The coat itself was actually nice and thick. If you''re up to the possibility of having to re-sew your coat together, okay, but I didn''t feel like paying $100 to sew my own buttons on.
It is cute though!!
Oh, bummer...sorry to hear about that! I already ordered itDate: 1/4/2008 11:29:29 PM

I have that coat! It''s cute...I really like it. I agree with the quality of VS stuff, not always what you expect for the price you pay, but I was satisfied with the coat. I think I posted it in the Fall/Winter thread.
