clara sweater

I thought the quality was so so

Really nice sweater, light weight, can be dressed up or wear casual. Fits great. Got the snow melt which I thought would be a pale blue but is more of a light glacial green, still very pretty.

This sweater SHRINKS despite following care instructions! I only washed in cold water, dried on flat surface w/o dryer, etc, and it still shrank. After I washed it the 5th time, it was so ridiculously small that I couldn't wear it. Looks like Aritzia instructions lie. From now on I'm not buying anything except polyester from Aritizia - I can't keep dropping $100 on sweaters that will be unuseable after a few washes. This isn't the first time this has happened to an Aritzia piece I own.... :(

Love this for the office and for casual wear. Great to have a warm sweater for the colder months that’s a little different than my usual crew or turtle necks! I’m usually a S (35-27-38) but sized down to xs and it’s still a relaxed, oversized fit (but not sloppy).

Awesome sweater, so comfy, slightly loose. Just be careful when you are washing it. It says hand wash only, and I put it on a delicates cycle in my washing machine, because that is usually fine to do with these types of things. But it shrunk a little bit. So definitely HAND WASH ONLY. It was loose enough that it still fits good though.

My only issue is the wool fabric has a weird smell after the first wash. Not sure why. Other than that it is great!

I don't recommend this sweater. I think is super over priced for this item

I bought this in store and it was so cute but when I washed it it smelled absolutely disgusting. It wasn’t mildew and I had washed it with a bunch of other things that smelled perfectly fine but I had to wash the sweater 3 or 4 times to get the smell out and haven’t worn it since :(

I wore this sweater and washed it according to instruction and it completely shrunk more than 2 sizes. I am so disappointed considering the fact that I really wanted to like this sweater.

Fit as I hoped! Weight is great for warmth! Collar allows you to look a little more stylish!

high quality texture to the fabric and nice fit! i like the preppy vibe

Great quality, love the fit

I loved this sweater! It is so soft, lightweight and warm and looks super cute too. Just be very careful when you wash it as mine shrunk the very first time I put it in the laundry! Unfortunately it's now miniature and there's no way to fix it :(

I got a xxs because I wanted a normal fit, not oversized fit.

I followed the wash instructions as directed— hand washed and laid flat to dry but shrunk down significantly and doesn’t fit anymore. Literally cannot even fit my arm inside the sleeves. So sad about it!

The sweater looks great with everything. It is much softer than I thought it would be.

Love everything about it!

The Clara sweater is both attractive and comfortable. I bought both the lilac and the black for fall/winter “business smart casual” and received compliments. It is heavy-weight, soft, and smooth-feeling. I bought 1 size smaller than usual (turned out to be right for me). Note: I suspect that it may need a touch-up with an iron if you fold or roll it when storing. Looks great with slim/fitted/tailored trousers.

This is a fabulous sweater! I loved it so much that I bought two. I agree with other reviewers that it fits a bit large so I sized down. It is a quality item - it is well made, the wool has a nice weight to it and it is not itchy. It can be paired with pants, skirts and jeans so it is getting a lot of wear for work and for weekend. Thanks Aritzia.

The fit is nice but the quality is to thin. It doesn’t lay down nice

I loved this sweater but I followed the wash care instructions and it shrunk 3 sizes. Purchases xxs , now fits a teacup puppy

Such a beautiful sweater and fit perfect, nice but loose. However, after first washing shrunk so much! So disappointed.

Super soft and comfortable. Does run large though, I'm usually a S but I bought an XS and it's still roomy.

Bought this sweater, wore it twice and had washed and laid flat to dry as directed… the sweater shrunk at least two sizes and has absolutely no shape anymore. Terrible purchase and waste of my money. Disappointing as Aritzia usually is worth the price.

Followed the wash instructions and it pilled and shrunk with one wash. Honestly I was so disappointed because it was so cute, but now I’m so uncomfortable wearing it. Wish I could go back in time and never buy.

Absolutely loved it when I first wore it and then after washing it and following the wash instructions, it still shrank. Disappointed because it is now so tiny and tight. Not sure what went wrong since I haven't had this issue with any of my other Wilfred/Balaton knits.

Cute sweater but it does run big, the sleeve were too long and the overall fit was baggy, if I had sized down it would’ve been perfect.

So cozy but stylish, fits so well looks great with leggings too

i usually wear a medium/large but for this sweater i got an XXS and im so glad i did but its the most flattering fitted sweater

Such a pretty sweater! Fits slightly large but lays very nicely. Soft material.

I was about to return this sweater because after I washed it there was an intense smell. Almost like a dead animal or something rotten. The smell filled up my apartment. I’m not sure if I am just really sensitive to the smell but it was truly unbearable. I went to go grab it this morning to go exchange it in store and it smells completely normal. So strange. If you are going to purchase make sure to hand wash this sweater by itself. Otherwise it’s a great sweater and hopefully it won’t smell as bad every time I wash it.

Very cute and I love the collar but wish it was just a tad bit longer!

Great basic sweater for the fall! Slightly oversized and looks great with trousers or jeans.

I loved this and had high expectations for this piece for the fall and there’s already a hole! A waste of money, truthfully

Given all the + reviews I decided to buy the XS in the dark brown color. Really disappointed when I received the item. The material was really thin and felt and looked extremely cheap. For $128, it was a definite return. The color was not as rich dark brown as it was online. The fit did not drape as nicely as Aritzia's sweaters normally do.

Have a midi vegan leather pleated skirt and in combo with this sweater + some booties one gets an edgy-classy look. Goes well with the Melina pants, with jeans. Versatile and classy.

Love this! Purchased in navy. Nice quality merino wool. Nice weight to it for the cold months. I generally wear a small or an XS if relaxed/oversized. I purchased XS and it fits in a perfectly relaxed way. An XXS would probably work for a fitted look. I'm petite and the sleeves are a pinch long but a small cuff works. I washed it in a mesh laundry bag on wool/handwash setting with Eucalan. Layed on rack to dry. Washed and dried beautifully with no steaming required. (Re the review that said it smelled bad when she washed it.....Wool always smells funky when wet. It's fine once dried.) 5' tall, 32 DD bust, slim build. Considering picking up another colour.

Love the softness and fit of sweater

Such good quality, amazing fit. It’s loose but not over sized and the perfect length for tucking in! For reference I’m 5’6, 130lbs and 34DD and I got a small :)

Reallly love the cut and design of this sweater but they run larger than your average sweater. Sleeves were longer on me since I'm very petite 5'0. Will be returning it :(

Washed it by hand once and it smells of sulfer and rotten eggs. Not happy.

Very nice and neat versatile sweater that can be worn for work or with sweatpants! The arms are tighter than the rest, but overall you can downsize for a more fitted look. I am usually a M and took a S.
