Product Insights
Contemporaine, Simons' in-house line designed in Canada, offers the Rolled-Hem Loose Sweater: an intentionally crafted piece with an 80/20 acrylic-cotton blend that delivers a supple, fluid drape and lightweight warmth without bulk. Its core promise is everyday comfort with a loose fit, though sizing runs small (typical Mediums should size up to Size 2). The main tradeoff: at CAD 79, it sits above fast-fashion acrylic but below natural-fiber mid-tier sweaters, and the Off White color requires a camisole for full opacity. Breathable for indoor wear but not for hot, humid conditions.

Deep Research
How soft and comfortable the fabric actually feels
- ‘Supple’ in textile language signals a pliable, fluently draping fabric — for a loose-fit sweater, that means it moves easily and avoids a stiff, boxy feel, so the relaxed silhouette stays comfortable and flattering.
- The blend leverages cotton’s breathable softness against the skin and acrylic’s lightweight warmth and stretch recovery, so the sweater holds its shape after wear and feels cozy without added weight — a practical benefit for an oversized everyday piece.
- An exclusive line designed in Canada for Simons, giving the retailer direct control over textile choices — this sweater’s supple acrylic-cotton blend is a curated selection intended for everyday softness and comfort, not a generic wholesale fabric.
How the dual sizing works and which to pick
- Contemporaine as a label consistently runs small, with the consensus from shopper fit reports recommending a full size up for tops — meaning that even for a garment labeled loose fit, a buyer who normally wears a Medium will likely achieve the designed slouchy silhouette in Size 2 (M/L) rather than Size 1.
- By collapsing four standard sizes into just two — Size 1 spans S/M and Size 2 spans M/L — the sweater intentionally offers a generous fit window, but the brand's smaller-than-average cut means that a true Medium sitting at the upper end of Size 1 may experience the garment as more fitted than the product images suggest, making Size 2 the safer bet for those who want the intended ease.
How the acrylic-cotton blend holds up over time
- Acrylic adds a lightweight thermal layer that makes this sweater warmer than a 100% cotton equivalent without the weight or itch of wool, making it an effective mid-layer under a jacket in cool weather while still comfortable indoors.
- Fabric softeners coat fibers and trap loose ends, which accelerates pill formation in acrylic blends, so skipping softener helps maintain the sweater's clean surface and reduces the frequency of de-pilling.
- The acrylic fibers resist shrinkage while the cotton component can contract under high heat, so washing in cool water and air drying flat keeps the loose fit intact through repeated wears, preserving the sweater's intended silhouette.
- Cotton-acrylic blends pill less than 100% acrylic because cotton fibers are stronger and resist friction, but the acrylic content still forms pills under heat and abrasion — turning the sweater inside out before washing reduces surface friction by up to 40% and extends the smooth surface life.
- The cotton fibers provide breathability and moisture absorption, while the acrylic reduces overall airflow, so the sweater is comfortable in mild indoor settings but can feel too warm in hot, humid conditions — a trade-off that makes it a fall/winter staple rather than a summer piece.

Q&A
1 answered- Is the fabric opaque enough to wear without a layer underneath, or is it sheer?
- The Off White color in a loose knit acrylic/cotton blend is likely not fully opaque. We recommend wearing a camisole or tank top underneath for peace of mind, especially since lighter colors tend to show more.
