Sweater is as depicted/described. 95% cotton/5% spandex is both flattering and comfortable.

The rib knit is lightweight enough to wear by itself, but sturdy enough to wear a button-down shirt underneath without button-bumps. The pointelle cowlneck is a distinctive, feminine, pretty detail--not too low/revealing. Nice drape--moderately fitted but not skin-tight. On 5.5", an XL falls at the hip.

Can pair with jeans or skirts. Can pull over a tee or blouse for cooler weather, or alone. Great purchase in black--here to buy in another color! This one will be one of my staples/favorites. Highly recommend.
