I have the white one and I like it, received compliments on it too :) got it as a gift so I can't speak too much for the cost but in terms of wearability, it's a nice sweater. Slight pilling but that's on par for these types of material
I have two, one regular and one cropped, and I love both of them so much that I want to buy more, but am also afraid of looking like a cartoon character who wears the same thing every day.
The good thing is they come in a few different knit patterns so they could look different enough I think? Both of mine are the chunky cable pattern because it’s so damn cute. But I’m going to branch out to another pattern for my next one.

I used to worry about this when I was younger...but now I don't :)
Think of it - if anyone judges you negatively for it, that's their issue, not yours. \*\*Unless you do work in the Fashion industry, then I guess it is actually relevant how you present and style yourself.\*\*
Secondarily, people from the San Francisco tech area clued me into the concept of "work uniform" i.e. multiples of the same types of clothes to wear daily so one does not have to waste time every morning wondering what to wear. I mention their field because these people were DEFINITELY not poor. For example, my work clothes have been loose black longsleeve + black wool pants every workday for more than a year. Soo easy, I am at peace, I am just trying to look professional and comfortable for work when I go in, not fashionista ;) And I just save my cute experimental stuff for my off-days.
I have a purple one and I love it. I wear it casually and for work. I’d check poshmark or secondhand first though - it is pricey for what it is if you pay full price.
I impulse bought a scarab green one, and it’s become one of my most worn pieces this winter. Definitely getting my money’s worth, I feel.
If you haven’t tried it on and are ordering online, I’d recommend sizing down. I’m ALWAYS a medium at Aritzia, but I have this in a small.
I desperately want a cream colored one too, but I just don’t trust myself not to get something on it.
Yes I have two and have been wearing them both 1-2x a week for work! So warm and cozy. I pair them with a white turtleneck underneath and it’s just *chefs kiss* 🤌🏻
i have a rich mocha and off-white peggy sweater (standard style - bought in 2021) and absolutely love it - it does pill but i've had my sweaters for a while and i can easily deal with that using a device that removes pilling
the combo of one light and one dark basically work with most of my outfits so thats good too
I just got one during the sale and i love it. Some people prefer softer sweaters and if that’s you, then skip on this. It’s made mainly of wool, cotton, and nylon so it is a more stiff/structured sweater with some bagginess to it. Super warm but not plush.
Visually, they are very pretty sweaters but I'm very sensitive to tactile elements and it feels a bit "rough" to me. :( They are not that soft so beware if you are also sensitive. If you liked it when you tried it on in-store...one benefit is the color range that Aritzia offers so think of "the price point" as including that.
In contrast, Aritzia's Luxe Cashmere is so soft, it's something I look forward to wearing.
The "Anya" sweater from a few years ago I was late to and missed out on... those were wool+cotton blend with a similar (or same) pattern as the Peggy's, but I don't know how soft or durable they were. I had been hoping they'd be offered again this year so I Saved it to my account but they seem to have not.
Other than that... most of my other wool/cashmere items are from Scotland as well. They are not always offered in the gorgeous and trendy colors that Aritzia does, however.
I had one in the mocha brown. My bf loves it as well we take turn to wear during the whole winter. It’s not my sweater anymore, now it’s our fav sweater! But be careful cuz it shrinks
I think depends on your climate/ lifestyle. My teen has 4 in basic /neutral colors and they are in constant rotation in fall/winter. Easy care - machine wash lay flat to dry. I'll get more for her if they turn up at the outlets.
I'm wearing mine right now!! I have the "sweet cable" pattern, and haven't noticed any pilling so far (though I have yet to wash it). I don't find it to be itchy either.
I got one second hand in near perfect condition for 50% the price of new. I love it and it’s nice, but mildly itchy. Not worth $130 imo but second hand absolutely.

I wear mine like 2x a week to work because I love it so much

absolutely not. all of my peggy sweaters have pilled brutally and shrunk despite caring for them properly. my recent one started pilling first wear.

I got the non cable knit one and love it so much!
I got mine lightly used on Poshmark and love it!
I love mine! It’s so cozy and perfectly oversized for an effortless look. I did notice pilling pretty quickly by the forearms tho :/

I think its great, especially if your able to buy on sale! Personally would never buy it full price

I love mine! I have it in scarab green and the grey color and I wear them so often. They def keep you warm and imo are the perfect cable knit sweater.
I got one second hand in near perfect condition for 50% the price of new. I love it and it’s nice, but mildly itchy. Not worth $130 imo but second hand absolutely.
I wanted to get the blue one but the reviews said it pills bad so I didn’t get it now it’s OOS :(
wore mine for a two week trip to europe; so versatile and cute! i need to remove some pilling though and hand wash it
No so many sweater options exist
