About UsA Cleaner Wave Of Swim
Shop Recycled SwimI've had my eye on this Bodie Funnel Neck for a while and finally bought it in Navy Stripe on a recent sale. I am 5'6", 36A and ~145 lbs. I regularly vary in tops between size S and M, depending on the cut because I don't like clothes too tight. The Fit Predictor recommended a S in this and I think it fits me the way it's meant to, but I find the arms below the drop sleeve seam to be on the tighter side (and I don't have big arms!). The body area fits fine - I have plenty of room without it looking too big - but I'm worried about the arms feeling too small if the 100% fabric shrinks at all. I like the drop sleeve styling that's popular these days but many do have the issue another reviewer mentioned of the seams puffing out, and this top definitely has that going on. All that would have been fine for the nice sale price at which I purchased it, but I'm disappointed with how NOT SOFT the 100% cotton is considering the description's mention of a "super soft wash" - its definitely not "extra soft and cozy". Its almost scratchy! So I think its going back because I just don't have room in my closet for things I don't absolutely love.
It could be a little looser in the neck and cowel. The arms are also very fitted but overall it's a great sweater.
