I think it's really cute!

I actually have that top in red and black and have only worn each one time although I've had them for at least a year. I really like them and have no issues with the zippers. My issue is her tops run different in sizing, sometimes the medium fits well and sometimes I should have bought a large. I purchased these size large and should have sent them back for medium but I waited to long. Inconsistent sizing cost money so I've reduced my purchases of this brand

Clearly this particular top is not the right choice for you, OP. So don't buy it and move on. It may be perfect for other ladies. Do you feel that every item presented has to appeal to your particular taste?

No, and if you read my OP that's not what it says.   

 

I'm merely pointing out that the zippers on the pockets could catch on knits.  That's a red flag for me.  Too many accessories have been ruined by exposed zippers and by buckles.

@ALRATIBA. I don't often wear a sweater over a blouse, so I understand where you would be concerned.  This blouse (at least the version that I have 4 of!), is a textured liquid knit, so it's a bit heavier than the usual liquid knit.    I'm thinking it might be too warm to wear a sweater over it.  JMHO.

I frequently will toss a hand-knit/crochet scarf over my shoulders when I'm in someplace air conditioned, and have had some pieces ruined by exposed zippers.  So, I'm particularly aware of zippers.

@ALRATIBA Definitely not items you'd want ruined by a zipper!  I'll bet they're lovely, since they're hand made!!!

Not a red flag for me.  I like the design detail.

So dumb looking... a zipper on a top?? JUST WHY.


I don't find it dumb at all. I think that it is a nice design feature.
