Product Insights
The Le 31 Openwork Crochet Sweater is a limited-edition, Simons-exclusive Studio capsule piece that promises avant-garde versatility: its sheer, openwork linen-cotton blend is structured and durable, resisting runs and snags while softening with each wash, yet demands hand-washing and an undershirt. It transitions from beach cover-up to office layer, staying cool in warmth, at a sale price undercutting comparable designs.
Verified claims
- Sheerness
- Openwork crochet is extremely sheer, requiring an undershirt.
- Breathability
- Openwork crochet and linen-cotton blend provide airflow and moisture wicking.
- Construction
- The crochet stitches hold shape and resist runs from snags.
- Styling occasions
- The openwork crochet works as a beach cover-up, poolside layer, festival top, and creative-office topper over a neutral tee.
- Underlayer
- The openwork is translucent; wear a smooth, skin-tone undershirt underneath.
- Fabric feel
- Crochet fabric provides a structured drape, substantial heft, and resists laddering from snags.
- Sizing
- The product is described as having a loose, oversized fit with a flared crew neck.
- Shape retention
- Crochet's stiffness, weight, and diagonal-only stretch keep the tailored silhouette consistent; wear a smooth underlayer for a flawless look.
- Care
- Hand wash cold and flat dry to preserve shape; heat can shrink the cotton-linen blend.
- Longevity
- The fabric softens each wash, and snags are localised, so the fit and structure remain intact over time.
- Cooling
- Stays comfortable in 73°F, outperforming pure cotton.
- Durability
- Crochet's knot structure prevents runs and uses 30% more yarn for substantial feel.
- Softness
- Becomes softer with each wash while maintaining shape.
- Softening
- 65% linen, 35% cotton blend softens with each wash.
- Price comparison
- At $19.99 CAD, it undercuts comparable Spier & Mackay crochet sweaters on final sale at $49.99 USD.
- Versatility
- Comfortable in 73°F weather and transitions from beach to office.
- Exclusivity
- Designed in Canada, limited-edition Studio capsule unlikely to be restocked.

- Value

- Weight and drape
- Uses up to 30% more yarn than knitting, creating a stiff, substantial drape.
- Snag resistance
- Snags from zippers or furniture break only the affected thread without causing runs.
