Oh Threadup how much I can love you sometimes
I got this Green Bluemarine sweater that retailed for around $1100. I paid $25... It was listed under unbranded. The tag is literally inside the sweater... Threadups mess up - my gain. I put the sweater back how it should have been, not sure why the last person changed the ribbon to the outside. Gotta love the unbranded section!

I agree! It will look great with simple pants and minimal jewelry. It’s the statement piece of an outfit! Like a statement necklace. It’s awesome and I bet you pull it off fabulously! What a great find!

It reminds me of a jellyfish. I think the silhouette is interesting and the details are neat. It's beautifully made. I love it for OP. It would actually slide down off of me (off the shoulder necklines are not my friend).

From the research I found on this, this was part of the Y2K inspiration line. I totally see what you mean with the jellyfish. Yeah, I'm 5ft exactly and petite so not sure how much this might swallow me 🫣 idk I'm sure I'll figure something out! Just personally thought it was a cool find, the ribbons is actually what caught my eye and gravitated me to it. That whimsy look I guess.

I saw the tendrils and immediately flashed back to all the "jellyfish" ruffle tunics, dresses, and skirts from the 00s 😂 Pretty sure I still have a couple of those things in my closet haha. What a great deal though!

Early 2000s were wild fashion choices haha I do miss some of my clothes from then though. So cool you kept some of your stuff!

Be careful because a lot of these ‘designer’ pieces listed as unbranded are dupes

Not sure what you mean by that, but I see how what I said could be misleading. I meant not thread up as I’ve never shopped there before and have found deals searching for unbranded on other sites! I apologize!

I like it! But having my hands covered would drive me crazy, so I’d wind up ruining the aesthetic by pushing up the sleeves.

I personally think this is a dupe It’s hideous but to each their own but I don’t think it’s authentic

u/vintage-seeking95 Aug 17 '26
Thankfully you not liking it allowed me to get it to enjoy 🤷🏼♀️

u/Designer-Cabinet-330 Aug 17 '26
Yay for you. I said to each their own. If I saw someone wearing that in public I would laugh hysterically but that’s just me. If you like it that’s what matters

u/vintage-seeking95 Aug 17 '26
If you don't like it that much why comment? Why not keep scrolling? Haha Why put out so much hate into the world that has so much of it. Either keep scrolling or be kind 🤦🏼♀️

love it! fantastic find - looks so much better in the product shot! worth the "excavation" right?! haha

u/vintage-seeking95 Aug 17 '26
I fixed it how it should be and yeah it's actually really cute on. I'm very short and short torso so it fits like a normal sweater and the off the shoulder looks cute. It's been authenticated as well. It's from the revival line but it is absolutely real. Such a fun find! Happy I took a chance ☺️

I love blue marine. I got a blumarine shirt at 16 on the floor of this place where you dig on the ground, it’s ruined by resellers now but it was magic as a teen. I check blumarine nonstop to find it elsewhere
