Surprisingly, this poncho is both flattering and soft. i must say i didn't think the fabric would be as soft, since a lot of knits have wool, but this is great.  i purchased both xs/s and xs/s p.
the petite was just slightly more fitted, so i went with that. i love the boat neck, on me, it gives the poncho an elegant look. colors are nice and neutral.i  think i will wear this with dresses and jeans, both. great purchase. (115 lbs, 30dd, 26.5 in waist)
