I tried this sweater on last week and very much liked how it looked, especially with the V in the back, but I purchased a couple other things and couldn't do it all. It was a little scratchy though, especially compared to the other items I purchased. The V doesn't dip so far that my bra strap shows (which is very important for us larger busted women!).

How fun! Did you try it at NM or Nordstrom? It's so pretty but not really right for my coloring. And yours...since we are similar?

I was asking my SA about this sweater bc I hadn't seen it recently. He said chanel recalled it !!? My other SA said it was bc van cleef complained it looked like their design. [emoji33]

Now i wish I had gotten it ! Haha. Ari has a limited edition piece it seems !!
Seriously? Gee looks like free advertising for Van Cleef to me haha! Honestly, that design is all over the planet and has been since antiquity so since when do they have all dibs on it? I saw it at Nordstrom a long time ago and passed on it since I thought it was too heavy for this climate.

Maybe it's cos it's two high end French designers going toe to toe ! I am sad bc a) I wanted to wait til sale b) I didn't buy bc it was itchy c) I didn't buy and now it's limited edition d) i own some van cleef and it would have matched [emoji57]

Yes please keep me posted. That's what my nordies SA told me. The others weren't sure
I tried it w the v in the front which I liked better :)

It wasn't too deep of a V in the front?? Hm, I'll have to try it on that way too - if I can find it now lol. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it was a little itchy. :)
 
Maybe it's just defective fabric and they'll fix it. Haha. A girl can dream. :) I was gambling on it going to sale.

Here's the pics of me w it both ways. I have my cuba tank under but thought it would be cute w a simple white tank or the ritz one [emoji52] IMG_1501883126.806040.jpgIMG_1501883154.553409.jpg

I know right ! Now it's limited edition I want it more !!!!

Or a white bodysuit under it
Hahaha!

Yes exactly!!! I still need to look for those !

The legal nerd in me is having so much fun thinking through the different ways a trademark battle could play out with this!

Does vca have a trademark on the actual shape? That would be cool to know.

This is so interesting to me as a chanel and vca fan !
