FAQs

What material is this cardigan made of?

The cardigan is crafted from a viscose-rich blend, offering both comfort and structure.

How do I style the balloon sleeves?

The dramatic balloon sleeves add volume and a contemporary silhouette. They pair well with slim-fit trousers or jeans to balance the proportions.

Can I wear this cardigan fully zipped up?

Yes, the full zip-through front allows for versatile styling. Wearing it fully zipped up creates a more structured and polished appearance, ideal for a high-neck look.

What is the benefit of the peplum detail?

The feminine peplum detail is designed to accentuate the waistline, creating a flattering and shaped silhouette.

Is this cardigan suitable for all seasons?

While the viscose-rich blend offers comfort, the cable knit texture and high neck design make it particularly well-suited for autumn and winter. It can serve as a stylish layering piece in transitional seasons.

How should I care for this cardigan to ensure longevity?

We recommend dry cleaning to maintain the quality and structure of the knit. If hand washing, use cool water and lay flat to dry, reshaping while damp.

What sizes are available for this cardigan?

This particular listing is for size L. Other available sizes include XS, S, and M, which may be available through different listings or product variants.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan loses shape after washing

Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, preferably dry cleaning. If hand washing, always lay flat to dry and reshape while damp.

Pilling on the fabric

Some natural fiber blends can experience minor pilling. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid harsh rubbing during wear.

Zip is difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zip up and down. If persistent, a small amount of lubricant (like graphite from a pencil) applied to the teeth might help.

Color transfer onto other garments

This can occur with new garments, especially dark colors. Ensure the cardigan is dry and avoid prolonged contact with lighter-colored items until after the first few washes or dry cleans, if following alternative care.
