Sweater - yay or nay?

What do you think of this sweater?

Keep in mind I'm size 14/16.

TIA!

Nordstrom.

I LOVE it! But I'm nervous about how it would look on me.

Re: Sweater - yay or nay?

I think it's really cute

but I don't think it would look good on anyone bigger then the model- which is 99% of the world

sorry- just my honest opinion

personally- I would buy it and try it on- b/c you never know

Re: Sweater - yay or nay?

I will agree with Beth on this one - especially if you tend to be busty.

Me too. I'm also a 14-16 & busty, and I wouldn't think it would work on me. I think it would flare out from the boobs down & make me look wider, but you could always give it a try.

I'm plus size and I agree with this. I would worry about where it lands on the hips too. I don't think it would be flattering except on someone super thin like the model.

Re: Sweater - yay or nay?

Thanks ladies, that's just what I thought. Though I like it, I should stick with what looks good not just with what I like.

As Stacy and Clinton say...if you are a bigger girl, wear fitted clothes and accentuate what you have; don't make it look bigger.Chat Icon

eh... as much as I love Stacy, I don't know that I agree with that. a sweater IMO doesn't need to be fitted or tailored. esp when it's a cardigan style.

Personally, I don't like cropped sleeves. I can't wait for that trend to end.

Nay......I think it would add to much bulk, and I just don't like it. I'm a 12-14

Re: Sweater - yay or nay?

I think it is very cute but I know that it would look horrible on me. I am a 14-16 but I am not busty and I still think I would cry if I tried it on. I hate when something really nice does not work on me!

I agree also. I couldn't pull that off because I have a big chest and it would make me look bigger than I really am
