    segmented steel plates? I believe fashion/ dress belt have plastic or hard paper or perhaps canvas inserts inbetween thin leather sandwich construction and those belt is also sewn with the lining side shorter than the outer side so the belt will naturally want to roll.

    need advice on the FITTING ONLY please

    I think the weight of the jacket plus the shearling give illusion your jacket is tight against your chest, it will fit you when you're bigger, if by then it is still too big you can alter it or change the closure into button style closure that overlaps that will reduce a lot of excess.

    Cotton cossack jacket from Time Machine

    I think they don't follow the low rise of the pants because nowadays pants are mid rise or higher, but rather people wear longer jacket to cover untucked long t-shirt, or long flannel or chambray shirt, or long hoodies,
