to ask what you think of this jumper?

[fifififififi]

And whether you think it would be a nice Christmas present?

(yes, I'm starting very early, but you have to if you want the best bargains)!

...and you don't deserve anything nice.

Bluelady I did say 'if'. For both my grandmothers this was a consideration at 90 (although not at 85). I wouldn't have said that if it was for someone in their 70s but in their 90s seems sensible in case someone hadn't taken it into account.

Maybe everyone should be issued with a pelican bib on their 90th birthday.

I love it in the first photo, but not so much on the model.

I think it's one of those garments that looks best on a hanger!

That is one nasty jumper. Yuk. So unflattering🤮

I wouldn't wear it.

No sorry op it's not nice and I can't imagine it suiting anyone tbh.

Who designs this rubbish?

The link won't work for me, can someone post a pic please?

I'd disown or unfriend you if u bought me that

I don’t know who DP are trying to cater for these days. In the mid 80s, it was considered quite a trendy shop for young teens.

I’m sorry op I don’t like it for any age. I think there’s nicer jumpers out there.

Aren't there topics for Christmas and do you like things?

At least keep Christmas crap off the main boards in August

This is only £15 and nicer

Yes, there is a Christmas board.

If I was buying a jumper for someone in their 90s the first place I would be looking would be Edinburgh Woollen Mill, not Dorothy Perkins.

Don't be duped into buying any old shit because it's in the sale.

A 90 year old wearing something from that horrible shop? Why not buy something she deserves like lovely warm wool or similar?

Definitely depends who it's for, the MIL would probably love it however my mum would scream and run or just sit there giving me a death glare all day even while I cook

It's not my most favorite but it might be to spend tastes,
Definitely considering getting it for the MIL

Cheap, nasty acrylic. Horrid. Irrespective of age.

It’s on the horrid side of meh...

Well I'm definitely in the minority here, but I like it, I would wear it, and I'm in my mid 20's haha

fifififififi, are you going to buy the jumper?

I would try and buy a more breathable fabric like wool for someone that old as temperature regulation is a problem for the very old quite often.

It’s foul. It’s a horrible design in a horrible colour. If I was 90 I wouldn’t use it to mop up a spill. That’s me though.

Ewww it's ugly. Sorry OP.
