Fitted Mock Neck Longsleeve Knit Pullover Sweater - Peplum Blouse, Textured Pleats Waist, Lightweight Fall Trendy Top @Flowyair

I started this video talking about how winter sweaters usually make us look like sad fabric boxes. I zoom right in on the waist pleats and the sleeve flare of this Flowyair mock neck top to show that knitwear can actually have a shape.

The top itself is decent for the price. The textured waist pulls you in visually without feeling restrictive. Here is the detail you only notice when you wear it for nine hours. The mock neck collar is stitched with a slightly stiffer yarn than the rest of the body. It means the neck stays standing straight up instead of slouching into a weird wrinkly puddle by lunch. That is a thoughtful structural choice for an inexpensive piece.

You will see from the numbers that this video completely tanked. It pulled a tiny fraction of my usual audience and barely got any comments. I think posting a heavy knit peplum in mid-September was just too early for people still sweating through their autumn transition clothes. The viewers who did stick around loved the close-up shots of the fabric texture but the vast majority of folks just scrolled right past. I stand by the top. My timing was just off. Save this outfit idea for November.
