I tried it in dark blue and it wasn't love. It looked and felt like a light outdoor jacket from Patagonia.

It's too light to be a winter jacket, I'm afraid.
As someone who is 158 cm tall and weighs 43 kg, do you think I should ask for a size 34 or 36 in the Texodo jacket? Last week, I got a leather jacket on sale and it was size 38 — I’m still shocked 😂. My cardigan is a size 34, my cashmere coat is a 34, and my t-shirts are size 36.
Also, has anyone worn it in normal lighting and taken photos? 🙈
After @Gin&H , I’ll be joining the club too — I already messaged SA for the Mosaic silk shirt. I’m also thinking of getting the white one in the cotton version; the sleeve details look nice. Has anyone worn it yet?

I bought this in black last month! It definitely runs kinda big, I'm normally 36 but went down to 34 for this one.Has anyone seen / tried or ordered this coat irl? Tempted to ask SA to order it in for me

I would think you might need the 34 as well. I tried the 38 and the 40, but i am a lot taller.
Thank you! If you don’t mind, if you have same one, could you share photo? I really wonder how it looks on our heights 😂
No photo to share yet as I didn’t take one at the store when I bought it. It’s with the in-house tailor for shortening sleeves and around armhole and we will do another fitting in first week of August on my next store visit. I will snap a photo then, hope that’s not too late.
Did a quick search tuxedo jacket on this thread @Chrismin , @gris.etain , @Bdbunny all purchased and posted pics (they are petite, all 34-36 ish) @sparklehop , size 34, trued it on. * All made extensive notes on fit. (I bought it too, but am having H shorten the jacket body which is NOT what most did, so not including mine lol. @gris.etain who bought a 34 might be closest to @cavalpha size wise. I included two separate posts by @Bdbunny bc she included what looked like before and after pics. She and I both got a 36, but she can correct me if mistaken
Here are the quickie quoted posts (with pics)
Yes I see that! I’m trying to figure out if I have enough reasons to justify this piece. Posting pics here
I actually sized up to 36, well partly also because there wasn’t a 34 in stock to compare to. But it seemed to fit well.
This looks beautiful on you! Will you wear it out like that or more to events?
Did you get the length altered as well or just the sleeves? I’m trying to gauge if it’s too long in the vertical on me. I would definitely need it shortened at the minimum.
I tried on a few others at Saks from McQueen, Chloe, Dior, Akris, Ralph Lauren, Veronica Beard and Theory and I think the Ralph Lauren fit me best and seemed most versatile / easy to wear. The others were definitely more fashion forward and unique to their houses’ vibes. I’ll share a quick pic of the RL for comparison with H tuxedo. Would love opinions! I know they’re different cuts and vibes but going for what looks and fits best, which I may currently lean towards the RL.
ETA: this might not be an all purpose, every day, classic buy . See, @sparklehop ‘s concern about the wide peak lapel overpowering a very petite build and not being classic enough for a basic mainstay. In other words, ideal if this is a fun piece, not necessarily your first or only dark jacket.

The box always makes me smile - I remember the first delivery I received - I thought they must have sent me a Hermès wardrobe for storage!Hi Mosaique pants fans! I splurged on NYE by ordering the black version online. Thoughts? Am I delusional for thinking I can wear these well, or enough?
I ordered a 34 but holy moly, for me they are still massive at the waist - by 2 inches or so. I also agree with the sentiments above that tailoring alternations should be minor, so these are potentially a return in any event, unless I can find a 32 (which is unbelievable for me to say...). They are also of course long in the leg, even though I am 5ft 7 and wearing 3.5 inch heels in these pics!!!
P.S. I normally by RTW in store, so imagine my giggle at the delivery of a box which is almost my height - only this group would understand

I just got this mosaique shirt dress and love it! It’s in gauze, so super lightweight and breathable and the dress is extremely comfortable! Really oversized though. I’m a size 40 and had to size down to 36.
Would you recommend H swimwear? I only have hunza g and got used to their "one size" swimsuits, when you do not need to worry about the fit. I am currently eyeing Francesca swimsuit and would appreciate any details on fit https://www.hermes.com/ca/en/product/francesca-swimsuit-H5H3722DGIT40/
Love your look! May I ask - What brand are your shoes? They look really comfortable.
Thank you!!! The hunt for comfortable summer sandals never ends.
