Not sure.

No, I don't recommend this

Lovely material and could be very useful as an extra layer. However it is slightly flared which is a bit odd. Not sure I will keep it, which is a pity.

Wonderful long line waistcoat

Yes, I recommend this

This Waistcoat is really soft and fitted so it enhances your shape. I purchased this to go with a pair of wide leg trouser which are cream and dark blue stripe. You can wear it with a t shirt underneath or a polo or a lovely long sleeved blouse. Comes in 2 colours navy and taupe.

Good but not for me.

This was a very good item for the price. It was thicker and heavier than expected. The style looked terrible on me. It fitted nicely on top but stuck out from my hips like a wide, stiff skirt. I am under 5ft.

It's slightly thicker than I expected

It's slightly thicker than I expected, so it doesn't drape as I wanted. But I'm using it happily at about 20C, and it's a good single layer, until the sun goes down.

Longline Knitted Cardigan

Originally posted on marksandspencer.ie

Longline Knitted cardigan was lovely BUT the size (Medium) was far too small. All clothing I purchase from M & S is Medium but when I reorder this garmebnt I think I will have to get Extra Large

Lovely navy colour

Yes, I recommend this

Purchased for my 96 year old mother in law. She loves it. Had to size up to a L as M was a little tight around her bust.

Really nice quality but disappointed that it gapes slightly near the bust. Tried sizing up but that was too big.
