  1. HUGE monogram, placed prominently in biceps tattoo zone? Sorry, I think I would lol if I saw someone wearing this. :)

  3. I say this with love, but it reminds me of the skull sweater posted on April Fool’s Day last year. :-)

  5. I can see this being worn during some preppy outdoor sporting activity like cricket, but that’s about it.

  6. Drool. But I’m kinda east coast preppy. And I don’t care that it wouldn’t look good on me … I can’t pay for it anyway! So drool.

  7. Oh gosh, this is awful. Would never ever wear this and agree that I would probably laugh if I saw this on someone.

  8. I like the concept of playing with a monogram, but this misses the mark — it’s reminding me of baby spit up running down the arm. Same thing (smaller) near the cuff? Cute.

  9. I like it…but in a casual, Saturday afternoon sort of way. I can’t imagine that I would ever think this was dressy enough for work. And I would never pay that much for a weekend sweater. So I’ll pass on this one, lol

  11. This is no bargain, and it’s not truly preppy. A true prep would never wear a screaming monogram. Check the Preppy Handbook.

    I’m pretty sure you could pay any high-end tailor to monogram a nice cashmere sweater tastefully and still come out ahead money-wise and style-wise.

  12. I’m with the majority on this one – it does nothing for me. I think it’s somewhat pompass. I’ve never been a huge fan of monogrammed clothing, and this just takes it to the screaming obnoxious level for me personally.

    But, what bothers me more than the over the top monogram is the model’s nipple. Petty, but it just really sticks out to me – no pun intended.

  13. It looks like a beautiful sweater and an interesting concept, but I do not like clothes for work that scream “expensive”, and I think this does. It is show-offy, to me. I think it is pretty cool to wear clothes to work that do not look cheap or expensive – keep ’em guessing!

  15. Agree this looks like a joke. Monograms belong on stationary, maybe towels, not biceps!

  17. I guess I am the only one, but I like it! I think it’s a fun, unstuffy take on the monogram. Would be just for the weekends/after work, though. Can’t see this in the office.

  18. I went to law school in Richmond, VA where the preppy set is alive and well in the West End. I think this is hilarious and would totally get one if it were in the price range I would normally pay for a cashmere sweater. But I would bet good money that old-money (or FFV) Richmond-ers wouldn’t be caught dead in something like this whereas the new-money set might buy them.

  19. This sweater is adorable, and more importantly, because it’s cashmere it’s sure to be unbelievably comfortable. I love sweaters like this: it’s like wearing a blanket, and in these cold winter months that’s awfully appealing

  20. I like this only because it is like a more grown up version of the long sleeved tees I wore in high school in the late 90’s, that had printing on the sleeves. I don’t think I’d wear it to work, though, and I certainly wouldn’t spend $600 on it.

  21. Absolute nightmare! And I can’t imagine any law office being casual enough to wear this at any time.

  22. Most of you are looking at this the wrong way.

    I’ve been eyeing Queen of Cashmere for a while now and this pushed me over the edge. I ordered one from Saks today. Probably will order another. This sweater will last me for the next 30+ years. That’s less than $20 a year and the best value of anything I’ll ever own. The monogram is as much an art element as it is a monogram. Gives the sweater, and hence me, some personal style. This is a sophisticated, grown up, with an edge look; comes in just about any color; it’s cashmere, for God’s sake!

    And if all that doesn’t convince you, try this. I will be gorgeous when I wear it. You would be too.

  23. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m just not in the buff arms stage, and I don’t know that I’d want a monogram drawing attention there. Maybe for a young, skinny chickie. I’m not heavy, but I’m not skinny either.

  25. love this and have been looking at it for months; stopping me from purcashing: you can’t return if you aren’t satisfied and the Saks in NYC and Greenwich, CT do not have samples of the cashmere, i.e., i think that at this price and no-return policy i should first see/feel the quality of the cashmere. i wonder why they don’t give more information on the origin of the cashmere, place of manufacture & # of ply.
