I ordered 2 livia's from the US because I wanted summer tops. I loved them so much, I immediately ordered two new colours when they became available in Europe. They are much nicer and smoother than the 100% wool vests I know from other makes, which is great because it makes them less itchy when it is really hot and I'm sweating. I thought they would be too short for me, but they work fine. I'm 1.78 (5'10") and normally wear size 48 (nordic EU) or 18 (UK). I'll add a picture of my other, older livia for reverence, it hasn't been warm enough to wear the new ones.
