I had hoped to love this sweater vest, but it seems to be cut for a man& not for a woman. I wanted extra large so that it would skim over my blouse, but it was just larger through the shoulders & arm holes, as if a man needed the width expanded for broader shoulders. It was very nicely made, It has a lovely weight to the knit. It was a tad long, but that would have been tolerable if it had fit properly You can see how the shoulders / arm holes protrude out almost like a cap sleeve, & as it is made so well, I doubt it would shrink enough to diminish that "T" shaping going on. It just seemed to fit weird. returned it and will continue my search.
