An everyday cardigan for easy layering
This fine merino wool button-front cardigan is designed as a wardrobe foundation piece, with a slim fit, V-neckline, and ribbed trim. The merchant describes it as timeless and versatile, with effortless elegance that makes it easy to wear. Knit in Italy in a fine gauge for a look that feels as luxurious as it looks.[1,2]
Layering over a T-shirt
This black V-neck cardigan works as an easy layer over a T-shirt, as shown styled over a white crew neck tee whose contrast shows through the V opening. The knit appears fine and lightweight, with a slightly sheer look where light hits.[3]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Regal Pure Wool V-Neck Cardigan: Choose this if you want a timeless, versatile cardigan in a fine 100 percent merino wool knit, expertly made in Italy with wool traceable to an Australian farm and spun by the Botto Giuseppe mill. It suits those who prefer a slim, true-to-size fit cut to hip length, with a deep V-neckline, ribbed trim, and a button front in black. Note that it cannot be washed or tumble dried and requires dry cleaning, and the fine-gauge fabric can appear slightly sheer where light hits.[1,2,3,4] | Myhlo Textured Knit Sweater: Choose this for a casual everyday crewneck in a breathable 100 percent cotton knit, whose bird's-eye texture gives it what the merchant calls casual elegance. It has a regular, slightly boxy fit with a crew neck over-seamed with a V detail, ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem, and it's shown in dark navy in size options from small to x-large. The hem sits around the waist, falling to just below the waistline on the model, so check the roughly 30.5 inch shoulder-to-hem length (for the medium shown) if you prefer more coverage.[5,6,7,8,9] |
