Nice but better on tall men
We ordered this for a show. Our actor is 5’9” and the sleeves and legs are too long as well as the body of the tunic.I believe we ordered a medium. The waist fit and we could not go any smaller. In another review I have an actor who is 6’5” and very thin in the same size and it fits him well.

Cute Comfy Cultured 💕
Color: Burgundy With Gold, Size: Small, Color: Burgundy With Gold, Size: Small
I ordered all my boys the men's sizes because I needed the burgundy gold tones to match my dress. All their outfits were longer then need but was expected because they're not men! My 8yr old wore men's small, my 10yr old wore men's medium, 13yr old wore men's large and our taller 12yr old wore XL. They color was deep, the gold is a print not embroidery but they all were handsome and comfortable 💕
