Argh. Utterly failing to find a nice leather jacket for a short-arse. Help!

I've been trawling round town all day (and looked online). They're all too long in the body for me - I'm 5'4ish but have a tiny short body so everything sits nearer my hip than my waist and makes me look square.

I love this www.frenchconnection.com/product/Woman+Collections+Coats+And+Jackets/75JD7/Athena+Jacket.htm

But it is sold out in my size (12), and also not real leather, which I don't absolutely object to, but would rather have the real stuff.

I've been in Whistles, Karen Millen, Oasis, Topshop ... all over, basically. Where might I be missing? Or online places?

Thank you!

Just to let you know (because it's nice to finish these threads properly!), I went to Bicester village and got a lovely one from DKNY (240 quid, which is not bad IMO). I can't link a picture as obviously it isn't the current season, but it is a very dark chocolate brown and I luuuurve it.

I do also love the one you linked to, though, craic. I did look in All Saints but I don't think they had that one - probably it sells out before it hits the outlet stores.

Thank you very much for all your tips! Smile
