I am trying to love this fair aisle sweater. First out of the bag it's so striking with the blues,greens and orange. So festive. I normally buy Medium in sweaters and it's loose enough that it's not constricting. I read so many reviews that it runs small and I kept waiting for a Large to become avai...lable since i felt I needed to size up. But it has been out of stock in this pattern so I just got the medium. I absolutely love this sweater. It's soft and not itchy. I just wish it was a little bit more loose. It's fitted but not tight and I feel bulgy around the stomach area🤭. I am 5'1" and 118 lbs. Mediums in sweaters are normally loose fit on me but this medium fits like a Small. I hope I can make it work. I will be so sad if it starts to pill a lot. So many people complain about that. For the price point you wouldn't expect any flaws. But I anticipate it happening😔
Shoulder seams: the shoulder seams do not lay flat and instead stick out when worn. It looks sloppy. Material pills too easily: it looks and feels like it is about to pill even though I've only tried it on briefly. I got a merino sweater from here last year and it barely pills after many wears. ...Fit: I like that it's both somewhat fitted and cropped. I like the length of the ribbing. The fit is great. It looks great if you squint enough that you can't see the material or the shoulder seams poking out. Banana republic, if this item could be remade with better materials and better (or no visible) seams, I would totally buy this at a higher price. Please remake this item with better quality.

I normally wear a small. When I pulled it out of the bag it looked like it was ordered for a child or had been shrunk. Laughably small and inaccurate.

This sweater is a nice-quality basic that could be worn most (if not all) of the year, depending on the climate. It's a little scratchy so I don't think you would wear it alone. I am between an XS & a S, and I ordered the Small. I would characterize the fit as "shrunken," which means it's quite fitted & I won't be able to layer anything more than a very thin tee shirt underneath it.

I am very happy with this sweater! Being small framed, I always wear an XS and this is true to size. I wanted something fitted, not slouchy or oversized. It is warm without being heavy.

The aqua is such a beautiful color but I thought it might be a little itchy. It's not. It's soft and beautiful and I absolutely love it. It's true to size. I normallywear a small and I bought a small and it fits perfectly.

I wish I'd seen the comments about shrinking before I bought this. I gave mine to a 9-year-old child, as it only fit her after the first wash. Disappointed to have wasted my money on this!!

Bought for Christmas not at this clearance price. Washed as directed and then I could barely put it on. Got it wet and tried to stretch it carefully. Dried even smaller. Returned. Store employee told me that they don't wash theirs. I bought a different merino/cotton sweater it also shrunk. It was very oversized so I could still wear it but I liked it better before.

This sweater is beautiful!! Classic and Classy!!! It fits tts and the wool is plush and not itchy! The detail stitching makes it stand out. I bought 4 colors, during the sale and got them for less than the price of 1, at regular price!! Thank you Banana Republic!!! I will wear them forever!!!
