Help! Is this jumper hideous or fabulous?

I have bought this jumper, but can't decide whether to keep it. I loved it in the shop but am now worried it might be a bit OTT. My DC hate it. What do you think? I would wear it with jeans and ankle boots.

Help! Is this jumper hideous or fabulous?

I like it!

The instagrammers have been paid to say it's the must have. It's not, it's hideous

I bought something similar-ish from New Look recently:
www.newlook.com/uk/womens/clothing/knitwear/brown-leopard-print-slouchy-jumper/p/597710429

I wear it kind of as the model does with black skinnies, black ankle boots and a black hat when I'm out. (I'm fairly skinny, 5ft4 and have a massive mane of blonde, curly hair so can pull off quirky looks... I think Blush)

As someone else said, it's more about how you look in it than what anyone else thinks of it on it's own.

Brazen your jumper is much better. Slouchy cut and less....fluffy....

SusieQ5604 · 16/09/2018 18:05

Yuck. Sorry.

Courtney555 · 16/09/2018 18:06

I think if you were tall and a bit waify, you could probably work that into an outfit to look quite nice.

On me, with a bumper set of norks? I'd look like Kat Slater.

Do you have a bumper set of norks OP? Grin

🤮
Sorry, immature I know!

Billben · 16/09/2018 18:06

If you like it, I wouldn’t run out and pay full price for it. It will be on sale soon as it is too hideous to ever sell out 😀

HopeGarden · 16/09/2018 18:06

I really don’t like either version of this jumper.

Courtney555 · 16/09/2018 18:07

Just seen, you're already thinking you'll look like Bet Lynch Grin

Kochicoo · 16/09/2018 18:07

I like it but obviously it wouldn't suit everyone so if you feel good in it, it probably suits you!

JungMum · 16/09/2018 18:08

I dont dislike it. It's ok!

Redken24 · 16/09/2018 18:10

I like it in both colours 😂😂

VickieCherry · 16/09/2018 18:11

I also knew it would be that jumper. It's all all over Instagram and is hideous. Sorry!

There are nicer ones out there - the New Look one above is slightly less garish.

TakeAChanseyOnMe · 16/09/2018 18:11

I love it!

I had a similar one to the pink colour a few years ago - it also had gold thread to it. I was very sad when it got ruined in a washing accident!

SuperstarDJ · 16/09/2018 18:32

It’s fabulous. So fabulous that I bought it 2 weeks ago Grin

Penguinsnpandas · 16/09/2018 18:39

Don't like it sorry. In my house it would be DD asking for that and me going 😱 no.

Babybearsporij · 16/09/2018 18:44

It's probably fashionable, but I think it's hideous. Sorry OP.

EdWinchester · 16/09/2018 18:46

It's absolutely gopping.

Looks cheap and nasty and just horrible.

GrumpyOldMare · 16/09/2018 18:49

Hideous,sorry. I saw someone in a very similar one today and it looked just as horrible.

1vandal2 · 16/09/2018 18:53

The pink one looks way nicer than the brown and I hate pink xD.

Maybugger · 16/09/2018 18:53

😳 Oh Lordy!
Sorry op, it's umm......unusual.

iklboo · 16/09/2018 18:54

It makes me think 'Are you gonna bingo'.

LesDennishair · 16/09/2018 18:54

I never did like giraffes.

Judydreamsofhorses · 16/09/2018 18:56

I love it, and contemplated buying it when I saw it on a blog a while back. It’s right at the door of the M&S here and when I saw it in person I thought it was too heavy a knit for me. The pink is much nicer than the beige.
