Cute but Terrible Quality

As my first purchase from EMP, I was excited as I love Care Bears and the reviews looked good.
Absolutely loved it on arrival. Material was soft and flowy, the print is really pretty and cute as well the the colour being true to the pictured item.

One wash, following the stitched in instructions and it’s fallen to pieces already. The tassels unravelled, tangled up and it was just a mess of pink cotton. Extremely poor quality and disappointed. I’ve had to cut off the tassels to untangle it from itself and salvage what’s left of it.

Love it

I Received so many compliments when I wore this cardigan for the first time. It’s very lightweight and probably more a kimono really. It’s a tad small for me but still wearable.

Carebear cardigan

Cute design & lightweight. Fits great too. The hassles can be annoying.

perfect

as with everything from EMP its great

Size S best suited for 8-12, Size M best suited for 12-16

Purchased an M to suit myself as a UK 10/12 but felt a size smaller would have been better. For me the M was a little loose around the shoulders so I felt that it was likely to slip off.
Re-ordered in a S and could tell the difference straight away, fits more comfortable across my shoulders and sits comfortably on my bust without flapping around losing visibility of the print. I'm a 34C and would feel that a Small size would be perfect for an 8-12.

My only concern is the tassels, as I know from experience these kind of tassels fray and split in the wash so I would suggest hand wash only. Alternatively if there is a way to singe the ends to avoid fraying I would recommend doing so. Once these start getting tangled and frayed it will really impact the overall look for this Kimono so handle it with care!
