And I shop jcrew all the time. For me, I didn't feel like it was soft enough, it seemed too sheer to wear without a cami (and I live in a hot climate) and the pool color for me was just too pale. But now that you mention it, yes, mine had a couple of little snags on front that bugged me. I know linen has this issue, but for me the combination of all of the things it just didn't = love for me. </p> <p>Edit- I meant to add that the seaming was something I didn't mind but it does make it more casual I suppose.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-linen-v-neck-sweater#post-1288883 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 01:22:51 +0000 Suz 1288883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a design detail (the side seams). Totally intentional, from what I can tell.&nbsp;I actually really like it. Added texture.&nbsp;</p> <p>Linen is a fabric that is full of&nbsp;irregularities. It's normal for it to be a bit variegated in appearance. But snags are another matter entirely.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for "faded" -- mine sure doesn't look like that. It's neon purplish pink which to my eye&nbsp;is relatively bright. It's not a super saturated colour, though. It may be neon but it is still a pastel. (A colour to which a lot of white is added.)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-linen-v-neck-sweater#post-1288867 Fri, 27 Jun 2014 01:05:48 +0000 shedev 1288867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry that happened to you.
