Striped Funnel Neck Cardigan

Striped Puff-Sleeve Open Cardigan Exclusive Collection From Italy: Choose this if you want an Italian-made, open-front knit cardigan with a soft, fluffy feel and a relaxed, boxy look—reviewers describe the knit as cosy and the striped colors as vivid and easy to pair with basics. It's a loose, drop-shoulder design with voluminous puff sleeves that taper into ribbed cuffs, offered in Light Grey or Red stripes. Note it comes in one size, so the loose fit runs true for many but leaves no sizing adjustment.[1,2,3]Contrasting Trim Striped Soft Knit Boxy Cardigan: Choose this if you seek a boxy, torso-length cardigan tailored for a chic 30- to 40-something professional. This soft, stretch knit is made with a blend that includes 50% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose and features alternating light beige and black horizontal stripes accented by solid black ribbed trim at the crew neckline, cuffs, and waist. Note that the thicker ribbed texture on the hem and cuffs is distinct from the striped knit body.[4,5,6,7]Striped Funnel Neck Cardigan: Choose this if you want a soft, cozy stretch-knit cardigan with a relaxed, slightly cropped silhouette, a short funnel neck, and a full button front. The horizontal stripes run continuously across the body, sleeves, and neck, with drop-shoulder sleeves for a loose fit, and it comes in six colorways from Grey to Burgundy in sizes XS-SMALL through XL-XXL. Note that the hem sits around the waist on the model, so it offers shorter coverage rather than a longer length.[8,9,10,11]

Love this fun sweater

★★★★★Lesley S.

Soft, cosy, and so much fun. Well-priced. Fits nicely.

Coloré

★★★★★Véronique B.

Je suis parfois sceptique des vêtements à taille unique, mais celui-ci fait assez bien. J'aime beaucoup les manches plus serrées qui offrent un look bouffant pour les bras. Les couleurs sont aussi vives et agréables, et le tissu est doux.

Cardigan à rayures

★★★★★Celine T.

Tout simplement magnifique, très confortable. La couleur est vraiment à mon goût. Merci
