Fabric & Feel
Crafted from a blend of soft organic cotton and recycled wool, the Lily Cardigan Sweater feels luxuriously warm and gentle against the skin. Unlike traditional heavy knits, this eco-conscious fabric mix provides breathability while retaining heat, making it perfect for transitional weather. The sweater drapes beautifully and has a slight stretch, allowing for comfortable all-day wear. Its lightweight yet insulating texture makes it an all-season staple.
Design & Fit
The Lily Cardigan features a timeless silhouette that effortlessly blends classic and modern elements. The standout detail is its fine ribbing along the cuffs and hem, offering subtle texture and structure. The cardigan has a flattering, slightly relaxed fit with a length that falls just below the hips, making it perfect for layering over dresses or casual tops. The front buttons allow for versatile styling—wear it open for a laid-back look or buttoned up for a polished vibe. It’s designed to suit most body types, but for those who prefer a more tailored silhouette, consider sizing down.
