High Neck Button Through Stripe Cardigan - blue

High, close-fitting neck that folds over slightly - it sits snug against the throat without feeling restrictive, adding warmth right where you need it. Button-through front fastening runs the full length of the cardigan, so it can be worn fully done up like a jumper or left open over a fitted top. Two-tone horizontal stripe knit gives the piece its character - the contrast between the two yarns creates a textured, almost three-dimensional surface that reads well up close. Cropped length hits at the hip, making it an easy layer over high-waisted jeans or wide-leg trousers without adding bulk to the mid-section. The wool blend construction holds its shape through the body and sleeves - it doesn't droop at the shoulders or bag at the elbows, staying structured across a full day of wear. A cardigan that works hardest on the kind of days that start cool and stay that way - a weekend market run, a casual lunch with friends, or an afternoon spent between coffee shops. The high neck and full button-through make it genuinely versatile: button it to the top for a pulled-together look, or leave the lower buttons undone for something more relaxed. The model wears it with straight-leg light-wash jeans, which is the easiest route - the cropped hem and structured knit sit cleanly above the waistband without swamping the outfit. For a slightly more put-together take, try it tucked loosely into wide-leg tailored trousers with a simple pointed-toe flat boot. It layers well under a longline coat too, since the high neck peeks above a lapel neatly. The stripe pattern does enough visual work on its own, so keep everything else simple - plain bottoms and minimal jewellery let the knit speak for itself.
