The jacket looks GREAT on you and the fit seems perfect. Congrats!!
I also love how this drapes on you. I too like the draping on the SS jackets.
What leather did you get? Can you please let us know the style number and alpha letters on the tag??
Wear it in good health

Aha -- you are now officially no longer a virgin. Looks like a really nice jacket -- like others said -- drape is very sweet. I hope you get to enjoy wearing it soon! My new brown one is too thick to even think about until it gets under 60 degrees. Going to be a few months for that ...

thank you for the comments! The jacket I got was Calf leather SS12. I purchased it from LVR and the description says RO Velo Biker Jacket. Here is the style number.

Love it! Looks great on you! Congrats! I've been considering a RO jacket... good to know I should size up...

sep
great seeing you here! Always think of you when I think of Sissi Rossi bags....
AND, finally got myself one in Petol a couple of months ago.
Do you still have your SRs?

My sales rep just sent out pictures of the new mens FW runway items they have at the boutique, also the HUN furs which, yes I know, I'm not supposed to like fur but, thank heaves they're all probably as much as the downpayment on a condo.

Hi everyone! I'm thinking of getting my first Rick Owens leather jacket, after admiring them on other people for years :) I am typically a size 0-2....somewhat disproportionate because my bust and hips are 34 but my waist is 25. I have my eye on one, it is lambskin. What do you guys suggest as far as size? 40, even a 42 on account of my bust? Thanks for the help!

Hi there - I assume that there isn't a place around you where you can try them on? My RO size is 42. I normally wear a size 4, bust is 34 A/B and waist is 25 as well. RO jackets are cut slim in the arms, but will stretch, from what I've read. Hope this helps and I'm sure others will chime in with their suggestion(s).

I am a US 2-4...I got the 40....
I tried the 38, 40 and 42...38 was tight at the arms..and 40 is perfect and I could wear a thin cashmere sweater inside...

my proportions are similar to yours - 33 bust and hips - and i always do a 40 in ro. i can zip my jacket up all the way if i'm cold, though i prefer how it looks unzipped or partially zipped. zipping it up all the way gives me a uniboob hope that helps!
