Will this cardigan work for my body type

Patience

I tried on this cardigan and I kind of like the volume:

Of course, it's not as cropped on me-- it hits more at my natural waist. Thoughts on whether this works for my body type? Thanks.

Have you tried it on in store? If so, how do the shoulders look? That seamless shoulder can be tricky because it lacks structure.

Yes, I tried it on in store. I thought the shoulder was fine because I think the voluminous torso area balanced it out, but I could be wrong. I'm trying to get opinions because I'm wondering if the liking the sweater on the hanger was coloring my view of it on me.

I tire of pieces like this quickly for myself. The sleeve seems cute for a while and then it gets to be where I wonder why I bought something with a sleeve like that. Very difficult to wear I think.

I'd like to see in on you, Patience, before hazarding a guess.

Me too. Sleeves like that are often widening and you have your own regal shoulders

All right, I'll be sure to take a picture before committing if I decide I like it enough.
