Like many Asian imports, the cut is a little small compared to American-made. However, I anticipated this, and ordered accordingly. My fit is between large and extra-large. I don't like my clothes too snug. I ordered the 1X and it fits perfectly. My recommendation: order 1 size up from your usual. I love the deep side-slits, and [on my 5'3 height] the length hangs well below the butt! The cotton is not of cheap quality. If I hang it to dry, as soon as the washing spin stops, I don't have to iron it. Otherwise, it's a quick-iron that comes out really nice. I haven't noticed any fading--washing in cold--but I wouldn't chance the dryer. The shirt IS 100% cotton, and it's almost a broadcloth. But it's softer and lighter weight than broadcloth. I like the quarter-length sleeves, too. They're not skin-hugging, but they're not flapping around like many of the uni-sized type tunics. I liked the gray I'd bought first so much, I had to buy another. This is a deep, dark blue with white [flowers?] and emerald green vertical lines. Yes, it's a slimming effect. The Seller ships fast; both orders arrived well before the estimated delivery.
