Now I'm seeing trapeze jackets everywhere... I think they are very unflattering if you have a big chest. But they look cute on the models.
What do you girls think? Would you wear one? Or is this just another one of THOSE trends that just needs to hurry up and die out?

I think they're very cute, especially worn over a turtle neck of a darker color, but yes it is DEFINITELY highly unflattering on rather larger people with bigger boobs because ... well it's a trapeze, it goes like / \ xD

^^ Really?
I thought that it made my big boobs look even bigger and my long torso look short. I felt so fat when I looked in the mirror!

I love them!

I think they elongate the body, no matter what shape...but, I can see where a larger busted woman may want to only wear open only...I saw some real cute ones that were used to layer on a larger breasted woman and she looked fabulous.

Reminds me a little bit of the "So Jackie O." look. But..much hipper.

Exactly. I'm also really picky about the cut and shape of the trapeze - if that makes sense. I'm average size, but don't want it to make me look bigger

I just saw this one on the Macy's website. Perhaps it would be more flattering.

I saw quite a few last spring... but apparently they are supposed to be "in" for fall as well.

^^^ Well the stuff I've been seeing is made of wintery fabrics and they have longer (like 3/4 length) sleeves.
