This line confuses me! I have tried a few that I simply didn't like and returned....I did keep 1...it was a OTO coat style/hood...it's super plush... thicker then the others I tried. It's very warm and where I live that fine. Now I read this thread and 100% polyester is mentioned...so I go check the label in the one I have sure enough it says CozyChic but it's 100% polyester. It doesn't sag or stretch out at all but maybe that's due to it's thickness?

I didn't even realize there is a difference with materials used....perhaps I just like the cheap stuff! LOL as I sent back others which I have no idea what they were made of but they looked so bad on me...

I bought two of the original calypso cozy chic drapecfront cardigans and they sit in my closet. I like the newer. cardigan style better but while I like the feel of BD , I am over them

@equss @1Professor @scatcat Just curious.....does it really matter what they are made of as long as they feel good, wear well, and wash up nicely?

To be quite honest, I didn't check what fabrication they are before I order them nor after I receive them. I do check to see what cleaning instruction to follow; but other than, I don't really care.

Perhaps I should be more observant.

I have the pullover in the same blue color and love it - perfection for denim. Unfortunately, I want four of the cardigan colors, but went out of the box with the pink and am probably going to add the blue and/or black options.

I have way more BD's than I need, I have the 100% poly coat and the robe The coat is nothing like the robe in texture and stretchiness. IMO the robe reminds me of their throw, very heavy, stretchy and quite warm. I don't have this TSV and don't need it, but no doubt will order it in the garnet.

The main difference for me is my body overheats in 100 percent poly. I can do blends tho. It took awhile for me to figure out but I can’t wear all poly sweaters or athletic wear. In the case of barefoot dreams i also dont like the feel of that fabrication as much as the lite. So it’s very cute - I try to spend money on items I’ll wear not just like the look so it’s a personal preference ( don’t know why it overheats me but it does) . Ive gifted the cozy chic robes and others like them I just can’t wear them. I was trying to point out the 4 fabrics they use most are really different( i was slow figuring that one out). I’m sure some prefer the all poly vs. blends. Enjoy your cardis ladies

@equss Thanks for sharing that information with me.

I just happen to see a very short presentation today (Monday evening) on the upcoming BD TSV on this Saturday. I heard them talking about it being the original fabrication, bamboo. Correct me if I am wrong, anybody. That's what I understood. They said 500 had already been sold.

Not that I need yet another cardi, but since I have never had the Cali cardigan and they said it was the original fabrication, a more bulky knit (per Shawn), I purchased it in Garnet! Good grief! I need intervention.

@HeatherAG Thought of your statement of how the blue would go with denim and almost got it, but decided to go with the garnet, just for something different.

Just an FYI for any of you who purchase this before Saturday, December 15, I just noticed that the one I ordered yesterday is on advance orders. So, you may order early to ensure you get the size and color you want, but they aren't shipping it out yet. I did see, however, that it is guaranteed to arrive before Christmas.

I imagine if you want to purchase it now, you will have a few days to think about it, if you are not sure. But we never know when they are going to "release" the orders and start shipping. Sometimes I do this, though, for something that is on advance orders. It allows me time to really think it thru.
