Sophie open-front sweater-blazer in glen plaid

This blazer is almost perfect. The fit was slightly larger on me than expected but I still kept it because it's really cute. This can be dressed up or down. The material is heavy and warm but this could easily be paired with a tank and shorts for the summer. I also love the 3/4 sleeve which I usually dislike, but it works with this blazer.

I had high hopes for this blazer because the reviews were glowing! But I ordered online and didn’t try it on, and I can’t return it since it’s on clearance. So this one might be on me... The fit was wide around my hips/ waist which made for a boxy and slightly flared fit. The sleeves are quite short... more like a 3/4 sleeve, which is probably why all the model photos show the sleeves rolled up. It’s hits just below my backside, covering all my best assets. While the color and style seems versatile, it’s not a flattering jacket. It’s most redeeming feature is that the fabric is super soft! Feels close to cashmere... probably because of the wool blend. Overall, if you like 3/4 sleeves and a more androgynous fit, this might still work for you. Not my cup of tea.

The sweater blazer is definitely a must-have. The texture is somewhat knitted. The material is soft, flexible and on the lighter side. I took off one star because I think the weave could be stronger with more wool or cotton content. Best worn by itself in 65-70F or with a long sleeve shirt or vest in 60-65F. Overall, I liked the comfortable feeling and relaxed fit of the blazer. (For reference, I am 5’5”, 115 lbs, 34AA.) I was able to wash the blazer at home. I used Woolite under Quick Cycle-Cold Water-Low Spin in the Washer and Very Low Heat for 20 minutes in the Dryer. Then, hang dry. I didn’t add any other garments on my first machine test. The blazer maintained its shape.

I'm 6 months pregnant and an attorney currently working from home. This sweater is 10/10 - I can throw it over a tank top and be ready for more formal meetings since over Zoom no one can tell that it isn't a structured blazer! In person it is obviously a sweater though, which I love. It is so comfy and has a nice weight to it. It dresses up any outfit and is something that I could easily wear into work (when that day eventually comes). I ordered my pre-pregnancy size it fits great. I can't wait to be able to wear it with jeans.

I like the blazer. I call it a blazer but without the buttons. I’m 5’4”, 118 lbs. with square shoulders, not sloped. Bust is 32B. The small was just fine. In fact, I wore a J Crew lighER-weight sweater underneath, and it was a little tight. As it came over my hips, I would not want it any smaller. I wish it were lined. It would hang over clothing easily and not have a tendency to cling or stick to the bottom wear, although it would depend what the material is. Overall, a very nice sweater blazer for work, Zoom or running for takeout pizza. A primary-colored top would go particularly well underneath. At the sale price, it’s a very nice foundation piece for any closet.

This sweater hits a sweet spot of being incredibly comfortable while also being thick, well-made, and structured enough to look polished on Zoom calls with minimum effort. It's also easy to dress up or down, great piece for a capsule wardrobe.
