Has anyone tried this sweater?

kellygirl

I'm looking for a mushroom sweater and this color looks perfect. Has anyone tried this one from Gap? I also like this BR one but think the neckline is going to be too much for me (too fussy for my short neck.)
TIA!

No experience with those, Kelly, but Una recently bought a mushroom sweater at Gap -- not sure if you saw her post.

I love the cashmere one I got at everlane but I don't see it any more in mushroom. The price was nice too.

They do have this one:

And here's a cool asymmetrical one...

Una and I both bought and returned a different GAP sweater in mushroom. It was oversized and quite heavy because it was cotton. I decided it just didn't look good on me and I worried it would stretch out.

Thanks, Biscuitmom! Sounds like it has potential.
Thanks, Viva and Suz! I tried one on last year that was very similar to the one Una ordered and it was just too boxy on me. I think part of it was the length. I like this shorter style especially to semi-tuck. May just have to order it and see. Love the Bloomie's one but wanted something more basic.
Thanks, Tex! That looks very luxe!

I have the BR one and quite like it. I have a very average neck - and don't find it too high at all. I've worn it zipped, and with one side slightly unzipped. I've worn it 2-3 times and it's held it's shape nicely.

That's good to know, Lisa. I loved it on you! I would have thought you had a long neck since it looked so smashing. I may just give it a try since it is on sale. Did you get a regular? I read the sleeves are very long. I may have to try petite.

I did return the Gap one - the S was too baggy and the XS was not slouchy enough. Sigh. Will keep eyes open as I've seen a few while browsing. Love the Aqua cashmere hem!

Yes, a regular size for sure. S or M - can't remember and it's not nearby. I found I've had to size up at BR lately - and I have a feeling I bought a M. Don't recall sleeves being any longer than usual.

I have not seen these in person, but I have this one and it is sort of a camel color. (the cashew crunch)
