Weight and silhouette matter
Material names do not tell the whole story. Length, lining, panel direction and cut influence warmth, movement and how substantial the garment feels.

The most reliable decision comes from touching and trying several garments under the same light. Ask the consultant to explain the material, construction and care requirements of each piece.
