Black jeans and sneakers and it works well

There is a similar seam in the back down the center too! A lot of Japanese brands do this with seams, although usually only in the rear rather than the front. I actually don't mind the seam. Here is a picture of the cardigan in the same fabric. Personally I think the long length makes it look sorta feminine. I probably wouldn't buy it, but I still like how it looks.

I was looking at that DBSS sweater too. These pics are definitely better than Blackbirds.

I believe Blackbird's pictures are from the manufacturer and not taken by them, since I had already seen those pictures prior to the posting on their blog. Here are some additional independent pictures I had found....

Ehhhhhhh, I prefer my sweaters to actually function as a sweater. Especially for $450.

The torn part wasn't as noticeable in the other pics, think I'll have to pass on this one.
