FAQs

How does the sizing run for this cardigan?

This cardigan features an 'Oversized' fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to consider sizing down, though the style is intended to be relaxed.

Can I put this cardigan in the dryer?

No. The fine-knit wool will likely shrink or warp if exposed to the heat and agitation of a tumble dryer.

Is the Orb embroidery durable?

The embroidery is high-quality, but it should be treated with care during cleaning to prevent fraying.

What should I wear underneath the cardigan?

Due to the crew neck and oversized fit, it works perfectly over a simple camisole, a fitted turtleneck, or even as a standalone top if buttoned up.

How do I store the cardigan long-term?

Clean it thoroughly, fold it carefully, and place it in a cedar-lined chest or a breathable garment bag with an anti-moth sachet.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the surface of the wool

Use a specialized wool fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove pills; never pull them by hand.

Snagged thread

Use a needle to gently pull the snagged loop back through to the inside of the garment; avoid cutting the thread.

Garment losing shape

Wash according to care instructions and lay flat on a clean towel to air dry, gently shaping it into its original dimensions while damp.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality wool material feels soft and premium
  • Signature Orb embroidery adds a recognizable luxury detail
  • Oversized fit offers a trendy and comfortable silhouette
  • Versatile design pairs easily with high-waisted trousers or dresses
  • Elegant scalloped trims provide a polished, high-fashion finish

Cons

  • Fine-knit wool is delicate and prone to snagging
  • Requires specialized care, such as hand washing or dry cleaning
  • Oversized fit may run larger than standard sizing
  • Limited to dry-weather wear due to wool's sensitivity to moisture

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your cardigan remains in excellent condition, always follow the garment's internal care label, typically recommending professional dry cleaning or careful hand-washing in cool water with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid hanging the cardigan on a wire hanger, as this will stretch the shoulders; instead, fold the garment flat to maintain its shape. Due to the oversized nature of this piece, it is recommended to check the specific UK sizing (e.g., UK 14 for size L) to ensure the fit meets your preference for layering. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable garment bag, to protect the wool from moths and dust.
