Office and smart-casual layering
Reviewers reach for this cardigan for office and smart-casual looks, wearing it as a layer over jeans, slacks, or a skirt. Its boxy, non-cropped cut layers cleanly and is reported to flatter the torso, and it can be styled with a silk scarf for a polished touch.[1]
Cozy layer for crisp fall weekends
Reviews analysis describes this cardigan as warm enough for crisp autumn days, making it an easy pick for relaxed weekend wear. Reviewers reportedly find the rich oatmeal and burnt colorways flattering, though the underlying reviews aren't available to verify individual experiences.[1]
A statement cardigan with a tie-neck detail
Wear this cardigan when you want the tie-neck detail to stand out — the analysis of customer reviews reports it earns compliments for its original look. Note that per the same reviews, the ties run shorter than they appear in product photos, so they may not drape as shown unless you retie them or are happy with a shorter look.[1]
Everyday soft knitwear with a close-fitting collar
Per a summary of customer reviews, this cardigan's fabric feels comfortable and soft for most reviewers. Some feedback notes that the tie-neck collar sits close to the neck, and reviewers who usually wear V-neck sweaters may find it restrictive. If you prefer open necklines, the fit at the collar is worth considering.[1]
Everyday wear, with a sensitive-skin caveat
Some reviewers find the fabric comfortable for everyday wear, but others say it reads synthetic and can irritate sensitive skin, especially when the cardigan sits against bare arms or the neck. If your skin is easily irritated, this reported reaction is worth weighing against the soft feel others describe.[1]

Beautiful sweater
This is a lovely, soft sweater, but it didn't suit me. I found the collar a bit too close to my neck and wasn't for me. I usually buy V-neck sweaters, but thought I'd try this one.

Great piece
The sweater is fabulous. It is soft, perfectly boxy and the tie at the neck is a lovely touch. Pairs well with jeans, slacks or a skirt & looks great on its own or layered with a silk scarf. I get compliments on it all that time.

Not ultra soft
This sweater is quite picky if you have sensitive skin. Also it is not copper coloured like the photo, slightly more burgundy. Lastly, the ties are not as featured. They are the same length. But even with those three complaints, I kept the sweater because the style is lovely.
Chic
This sweater is attractive and warm- and very well priced. Love the oatmeal colour.

Excellent quality.
I received a double shipment and was charged for two sweaters. I’d like to return one for a credit.
Vibrant fall colour
Fabulous fall burnt colour and the cutest neck tie. It also has nice torso length rather than cropped. Highly recommend.
Beautiful cardigan
Lovely weight & feel, a bit boxy fit. Only issue for me was the ties aren't very long and don't fall as I'd like.
Achat parfait!
Tellement beau, original et comfortable!
