Sezanne if you're short

Hi there. I am only about 5.1", size 10, and have ordered from Sezanne for the first time. I am very unimpressed with the shape of the knitwear, as it is wider that it's long. The cardigans make me look like a brick. Everything's going back. I bought size S on everything, and I guess an XS would fit slightly better in a way, but it would also be shorter in the body. I just can't get on with the boxy style of the tops. I am so disappointed as I had high hopes I had found beautiful clothes to fit my very short frame. Have other fellow shorties found this too?

I'm 5ft 9" size 12/14 & while I have v long legs at 34" I don't have a long back & I found all the tops far to short especially if I want to tuck them in wear them as shown on the website.
It's v annoying as I have a couple of really lovely tops (both blouses & tshirts) from there but it puts me off buying them anymore.
The trousers tend to be small fitting & very long.

I am 5ft 8 and always have to get the legs shortened on Sezane trousers. Agree about the cardigans-very boxy. I don't get the love for the Gaspard at all. However the blouses, especially the silk ones, are beautiful and not boxy at all.
It's not unusual to only like a few pieces from a retailer. Just trial and error to find what suits you.
I'd join the Facebook groups and search for the item you like and see them on real women.
