I already reviewed this from when it first came available but after a season of wear I wanted to update. As soft and as lovely as it feels to the touch, I do think this hoodie should be a bit thicker. But not thick like the Dina as I would NEVER want to lose the softness. The issue is I can only wear colors lighter than this hoodie. I really want to wear bright navy with this but cannot as the material on either side of the zipper on the inside makes it opaque - a double lined effect - while the rest of the jacket is single lined.. so it looks strange and cheap with a darker color or stripe underneath. Maybe a need to go up a size so that the fabric is not pressing against fabric? But if I do that then it takes away from the perfect fit. Hm. I still love it but maybe KW can find a way to design this in a way that it is uniformly opaque all the way around while not losing the softness and drape. read more »

I debated for a while before purchasing this top, but having seen it on the blogs I went for it, and it fits my style really well, it came in handy during a recent trip when the weather wasn’t quite as warm as I expected, a very versatile item in an uplifting colour, looks great with my cobalt and azure culottes and top from last year ! Thank you Kettlewell for such cheering colours! read more »

It is lovely and soft and easy to wear. Although, I only wear it open, as if i do it up, the 3-4 inch lining down either side of the zip shows and doesn't look that great. Wonderful colours - i bought the Aquarius and Aubergine. read more »

Just received this yesterday and I love it!! I’m a big fan of hoodies bc they are so versatile and I was reading one of the reviews that mentioned this jacket. There were some great ideas about how to wear this piece and it inspired me to purchase an outfit. Love that! I’m a Soft Cool Summer so I got this in the Bubblegum Marl and the Cotton Weekend Skirt in Watermelon. I plan to wear this combo with the lace cami and long vest sleeveless top (not sure which colors yet!) and simple sneakers. Easy breezy! Perfect weekend outfit. As far as quality goes, this hoodie is well-made and so soft and cozy. I am so grateful for the longer arm length as I often have issues with that. The length is perfect; it falls on my hips in a slouchy good way. For sizing, I’m usually always a Medium in KW. I’m a USA Size 6 about 134 lbs. The Medium was perfect. I seriously cannot wait to wear this and post to Insta! read more »

The colour and style of this hoody are lovely but I feel that the material is too delicate for an everyday layering piece. The first time I wore it out I walked for around an hour with a small light backpack (I don't use handbags) and where the backpack had rested against my back the fleecy fibres had been rubbed out of the material and now there are grey, worn patches. Very disappointed considering the price of the garment. read more »
