I'm 5' 7", 160 lbs I love this sweater. It is loose enough to be comfortable but still looks stylish. The fabric hangs attractively. The sweater is thin enough to wear alone and thin enough to wear under other layers on cold days. This is my second of these sweaters. The sweaters have retained their color and shape through the wash. They seem to have been made well.The neckline isn't too tight. And the fit isn't too snug, which I was worried about with my choice of buying the large size. It's actually quite right in the top and hangs nicely, not snug, around my midsection.
