Structured shoulder pads give this cropped knit its defining shape - a clean, intentional lift at the shoulder that reads sharp without trying too hard. Crew neckline keeps the silhouette classic and versatile, sitting close to the neck for a polished, put-together finish. Cropped length hits above the waist, making it a natural pairing for high-waisted trousers, midi skirts, or wide-leg jeans. Long sleeves with ribbed cuffs and a matching ribbed hem add structure at the edges, anchoring the whole look. Please note: due to the fabric composition, colour may transfer - wash with care and keep away from lighter garments. The shoulder pad does a lot of heavy lifting here - literally. That built-in structure turns a simple knit into something with a real point of view. Wear it tucked slightly into tailored wide-leg trousers for a daytime look that feels considered rather than casual, or let it skim the waistband of a high-rise midi skirt for an off-duty edit that still has an edge. It works just as well thrown over straight-leg jeans for a weekend gallery visit or a low-key catch-up with friends. The cropped cut means layering is easy too - a longline coat over the top and you're ready for anything the day throws at you.
