I was wondering why she'd be wearing a turtle neck sweater at this time of year! It's still summer where I live. Maybe you're right....maybe it's a "preview".

@KrimpetteIn the fashion world, I think summer ends on August 1.

I know when I had a teaching wardrobe, I shopped for September-December in August. Now because I'm a snowbird and live 90% or more of my life in summer, I stop shopping on August 1. I don't want fall/winter much and what's left for sale or clearance is really picked over.

@millieshops. I can understand buying now for fall and winter, I just don't understand dressing for winter (with a turtleneck sweater) when it's 90 degrees, and will be for at least the next month. At least where I live. Guess I'm just not much of a "fashionista"!

@KrimpetteI have 2 basic turtlenecks left in my wardrobe, one here in NY and one I leave in Florida. One is so old that it still has the ubitquitous velcro-in shoulder pads of its era. I haven't worn either forever, but I'm not tossing them just because I'd never want to buy one.

As for the models wearing them? They're in A/C and attired to sell. They probably rip them off just as soon as they're out of camera range. I'd feel sorry for them, but every job requires sacrifice of some sort so no tears here.

That is the TSV for Issac. I think it looked form fitting and material looked thin. Not a good look.

I think its cute, but its August 12/13 and in California we have 6 weeks of summer left and then go into Indian summer {no that is not a racist comment its just called that} so I wouldn't be wearing this until late October/November

I am so disappointed, that is a pretty poor TSV.

It looks "cheap", nothing high end designer with that turtleneck.

I looked through all the "new" and just not happy with the offerings this Fall. I'm not into bell sleeves, chiffon, a top with tons of fabric hanging, or even the printed pants.

While I usyually love turtleneck tops, the sleeves and wide hemline ruined it.

I don’t care for it, I do think it looks kind of cheap, I think it’s the scalloping...but like everything, it’s all personal taste, if you like it go for it👍🏻

Re: Isaacs special

Marlyn1 — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 11:33:45 GMT

I agree, it looks cheap. I don't like the sleeve and I'm not fond of scallops, unless I can eat them. This is an easy pass. Don't even like the colors.

It must be my age, but I don't want any clothing around my neck any more. At one time, I loved a turtleneck, but I have not worn one in years.

I like a turtleneck in fall & winter with jeans. The sleeves aren’t too wide (compared to most I’ve seen), and the scallop hem is ok. I don’t like the bracelet sleeve length though. I prefer a true long sleeve or 3/4 sleeve. This in between length is what looks odd to me (depending on your arm length).

It's time for a new design. Isaac did a version of this TSV last year but with a mock neck. I have a version of this that is a crewneck and cold-shoulder. Now a turtleneck.

I cannot attest to this particular sweater since it's new but the version I have is fabulous. The hand to the sweater is soft and the one I have is not thin at all. I own a number of Isaac's sweaters and they are favorites of mine. They are substantial but not heavy and hot. There is nothing thin about them at all.

I quit wearing turtlenecks in the early 2000's so this is a pass.

Katcat1 — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 19:04:57 GMT

The TSV is horrible. The scalloped bottom and sleeves are from what century? Who is Issac designing for?
