It's a great look if done right like McQueen or it can venture into disaster if done with anything looking like a mock. It also seems slightly more dressy in darker colors and seen as smart in cold weather. A Navy turtleneck goes great with most items. I don't care for lighter colors as much though except for off white/cream andy maybe camel.

Stefano Pilati does it all the time. And I think it looks great as long as it doesn't look bulky.

And I trust his taste, at least.

Anatomically, I have no neck! (Very Little). Turtlenecks come up to my ears. Never wear them.

Agree, a cheap, black mock is not a turtleneck.
