I bought this piece years ago, hoping I could go from a large to a medium. That never happened. I bought the correct size from Poshmark so I am a happy camper. The colors are stunningly rich. The jacket is a royal purple, and there are brick red and mustard yellow flowers with faint green leaves. The tag says 100% cotton but the outside shell feels like velvet or velour. This was made in India. Shoulder=17.5 Bust=19
