The button placement is on the right, so it's designed for men, but the design might suit women as well if the size is right. The tag says M, but the width is quite large, while the height seems to be designed for someone petite, around 150-160cm. Please check the images for the size. I bought it new, thinking it was a women's M, and wore it twice, but the size didn't fit and it was difficult to wear.
