Product Information
Full details
The Karen Millen Contrast Tipped Cardigan is designed for adults seeking a sophisticated, heritage-inspired layer that bridges the gap between relaxed comfort and polished smart-casual style. Featuring a slim silhouette, ornate gold-tone buttons, and distinct tipped detailing, it offers a structured look that elevates everyday outfits; however, because it is crafted from cotton and features a cropped, fitted cut, it requires careful handling during laundering to maintain its shape and finish.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does this cardigan run true to size?
It is designed as a slim fit, so it will sit closer to the body. If you prefer a looser or more relaxed feel, you may consider sizing up.
Can I machine wash this item?
We recommend a delicate cycle in a mesh laundry bag to protect the hardware, though hand washing is the safest method to preserve the knit quality.
What is the best way to store the cardigan?
Always fold the cardigan for storage. Hanging it can cause the weight of the cotton fabric to distort the shoulders and length over time.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the two front patch pockets are fully functional and reinforced with contrast trim.
Is the material itchy?
No, the cardigan is crafted from cotton, which is generally soft and breathable against the skin.
Troubleshooting
Buttons feel loose after repeated wear
Check the stitching on the gold-tone buttons periodically and reinforce with matching thread if necessary.
Garment seems slightly smaller after washing
Ensure you are using cold water and never tumble drying; if minor shrinkage occurs, gently pull the damp fabric to reshape before laying flat to dry.
Snagged threads on the knit
Use a needle to gently pull the snagged loop back through to the inside of the garment; avoid cutting the thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is made of cotton, it is essential to follow specific care instructions to ensure longevity.
- Washing: Hand wash or use a delicate cycle in a mesh garment bag to prevent the ornate buttons from snagging on other items. Always use cold water.
- Drying: Avoid the tumble dryer. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean towel to air dry to prevent the cotton fibers from stretching or shrinking.
- Storage: Fold the cardigan rather than hanging it; keeping it on a hanger for extended periods can cause the shoulders to stretch out of shape due to the weight of the knit.
