Does the cropped cut work with high-waisted jeans?

Yes. The cropped hem sits near the waistband of high-waisted jeans or trousers, so the lace trim shows above the belt line. Taller shoppers may find it ends higher than expected.

Can I wear a sweater under it?

Only a thin one. The silhouette is tailored and fitted, so a bulky knit will pull at the buttons and shoulders. A fine-gauge top or blouse fits better.

How should I care for the lace trim?

Wash cold on a gentle cycle or by hand, and keep the lace away from a hot iron. Corduroy also loses its pile if pressed hard, so steam rather than press.

Is corduroy warm enough for winter?

It is a mid-weight layer, not a coat. It works over a top in fall and mild winter days, but it will not replace a wool coat in cold weather.

Does it run true to size?

The cut is fitted and tailored, so shoppers between sizes often size up for comfort across the shoulders and chest. Check the bust and shoulder measurements rather than the label alone.
