Monterey Stripe Cotton Funnel Neck Sweater

Such an immense bummer- this is such a great sweater- I also have it in black. The one star is because of the abhorrent state of this sweater- stained and damaged. I understand that internet sales are brisk and fast but Nordsrom Rack do better! I taped notes on it to indicate stain and damage and wrote an accompanying card with it. I imagine the next customer that orders it will find the same issues with it. I thought with the family buying the business in full would help quality control. I’m sorry I am mistaken -

I have the black and silver Monterey and am awaiting the arrival of the beige and gold & green and gold sweaters. I am not sure how they got lumped in with the striped Monterey, which is also beautiful but not dressy. The holiday Montereys are simply beautiful, they should take you in style to every party or special event. The Monterey sweater is unlike anyone else’s design with the exposed seam and the subtly different fit. The cream and gold sweater is not flashy, just the right amount of sparkle to me, I call it quietly elegant The green and gold sparkles beautifully. The neck on the Monterey is snug going over your head but should be comfortable once on. I put a plastic bag over my head when putting it on so as to protect the sweater from makeup stains. It is a funnel neck, which is very on trend right now and flattering to just about everyone. The sleeves taper at the elbow and will be snug, as in you can’t roll them up. It’s a very feminine effect. The line on the body is very flattering and the back of the garment has the tiniest flare from the body, sort of like a whisper of a cape effect. These aren’t trendy pieces and I expect to love mine for years.

This sweater is incredibly soft, and high quality cotton. I love the colors and design. The only flaw is the neck is pretty tight. I’m not sure if I will keep it because of this.

Love this sweater! Easy wash and wear. Dryer friendly. No pilling. Soft cotton. Elephant is a deep, blue-gray. Can be worn year round in milder climates.
