I love this cardigan and thought about buying it as a treat for recent weight loss but I have a nagging suspicion it won’t look stylish?

Do you think so? I've been wearing lots of M&S men's merino jumpers over the last couple of winters. I wear them next to my skin. My skin can be sensitive and prone to eczema, but I find the merino really soft and trouble free. For years I only wore cashmere next to my skin, but merino is half the price, still very soft, harder wearing and can go in the washing machine.

During autumn and winter I live in Uniqlo merino wool roll necks. I've never found them itchy, either.

Well I don't like the colour, but I do quite like the cardigan. Like a pp says, if you're a Tilda Swinton type you could wear it with grey wide leg trousers, or a kilt like skirt. But you probably need to be a Tilda Swinton height and shape to get away with that.
