Great sweater, however order your true size or even one down, as linen/cotton tends to stretch over time, so the front drapes open on me a little. Definitely need a camisole. Love it bought multiple colors.

This is a fun, lightweight top that is perfect (over a cami or tee) for a touch of color with jeans or capris. Love the "tomato".

I love the color of this sweater and I especially love it with the matching skirt (which I rate highly). However, the sweater is clearly flimsy and doesn't hold up well to washing. In fact, I had to order a replacement after my original one shredded (admittedly, after a year) while being washed. I bought the replacement one on sale, which was nice. Overall, the quality is not great (nor what I usually expect from Chadwick's). If the sweater didn't match the skirt, I would not have kept it.

I love the color and the fit is pretty nice. It's a flattering style. I'm worried about washing it because it's so delicate but it was on clearance so I guess I can't complain.

As someone without a big bust, I found the sweater to be a bit baggy at the waist because of the extra fabric that falls from the top of the sweater. You can hide this by wearing a belt with the sweater, though. Very comfortable, great color and got lots of compliments.

I LOVED this sweater and was more than pleased with it. I use it with a tank underneath and a couple of my coordinating skirts. I feel classy and 'dressed up' but comfortable. It adds the extra touch of class to an outfit. It's great for Arizona fall weather.

When I purchased the sweaters, it wasn't clear that this sweater could not be worn by itself. I even asked the sales representative, and he thought it could be worn without a teddy. Therefore, I was truly disappointed when the sweaaters arrived and they were clearly see through. That's not what I wanted. If the information at the top of this page had been included when I purchased them, I would have known

I love the sweater color and the fit is pretty good. I am concerned about the loose knit being easy to pull and probably stretching. It will probably last only this one season and I like to find things that will last for longer than that.

Not what I expected. Too thin to wear by itself and I thought it had an insert across chest. My own fault, I should have looked closer.

I was very disappointed with the quality of the sweater. It was very thin. You can see right thru the sweater. I also felt that I was misled by the picture in the magazine. It was always shown with white under it and it looked like part of the sweater. It was done with a red outfit and the brown so I thought it was part of the sweater.

This shirt goes very well with the skirts that it is pictured with. However, it is a thin wide knit shirt and loses it shape during the first wear(starts out feeling fitted and then stretches and feels baggy by the end of the day). It also snags extremely easily - I wore mine once and may not be able to wear it again.

I love it!! It really isn't a sweater. I use it with a shell under it with capris, skirts, or jeans. It is great when you need to dress something up just a little. I am a teacher, and I wear it to school, movies, or out casually.
