Styling for Casual Elegance

For a relaxed, everyday look, wear your cardigan open over a simple tank top or fitted tee. Let it hang naturally to showcase its fluid drape and pair with your favorite jeans or a midi skirt for effortless sophistication.

Gentle Hand Washing Method

Protect the luxurious fibers by hand washing in cool water with a gentle wool detergent. Avoid twisting; instead, gently press out excess water between towels. Reshape and lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Proper Folding & Storage

Store your cardigan folded in a drawer or on a shelf, not hanging, to prevent stretching and maintain its original shape. Use a cedar block or lavender sachet nearby to naturally repel moths and keep the garment fresh.
