(It is frustrating how word are chopped in revires now! This is not something I am doing!) I bought this coat in pink last year and was SO EXCITED to see it in plum! The pink is a large & the plum is a medium, because large was sold out. The sleeves are a little shorter and the shoulder area is a bit tighter, but it fits fine. Other than that, I don't really feel a difference. I only wore the pink coat a few times last winter. I am hoping I will wear the darker plum color more. I don't have to be quite so concerned about it getting dirty. So far the rhinestone collar has not lost any rhinestones. They are very secure. Weirdly, I feel like the plum color looks a tiny bit more robe like that then pink. Not quite sure why. It is a little bit different fabric. It has a bit more of a nap and it a tiny bit shiny, where the pink fabric is not.
