do we like this jumper/top?

[MissDD1971]

Please help me kill this lemming (wanted item). I work, no kids, figured it'd be good for after work etc... what are the downsides?

Not massively keen, I'm afraid. Sorry . It looks like it does strange things over the nork area. I think a lot will depend on the quality of the knit and how it hangs once it's on. You'll only know that if you see it in RL.

It might be itchy, mohair and wool blend?

I find anything with wool in quite itchy on bare skin.

Mohair AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! gives me the heebie jeebies.

And handwash. There are so many oversized (and grey) jumpers around, surely there must be some nice ones that are machine washable.

We do not, since it isn't Our style. And it looks ichy!

Saw it IRL and it is very nice on. drapes well even over sizeable norks. LOL

will reconsider! Thanks!

It looks cheap. And the back is just weird. And I spent the early 2000s wearing H&M mohair jumpers with sequins, so it feels a bit dated to me. Does that help?!

Kezztrel that helps.

I think I just want something, anything to cheer my stupid self up with and the very kind salesgirls in Oliver Bonas are super flattering.

yeah I can spend £42 on something much nicer! Thanks

Ah good MissDD, I was worried I was a bit harsh but wanted to be honest and to put you off

have also seen in in the flesh and was tempted too but i have a few too many jumpers already!

Kezztrel - in fact it was a few years ago that H&M did do similar jumpers. amazing how fashion comes round again or Vila nicked H&M designs.

and slenderman glad you were tempted too! I got another one but a more wearable one!

I know MissDD, it's funny isn't it. It's the kind of thing that makes me question whether something does actually look dated or whether the fashion has come round again and I'm just old!
