Maternity Rib Knit Cinched Hem Cardigan - black

Designed specifically for maternity wear, with a cinched ribbed hem that sits neatly beneath the bump without riding up or pulling out of shape. The deep V-neckline runs into a clean button-through front placket, giving a polished finish that works just as well open as it does fastened. Ribbed cuffs mirror the hem detail, adding structure at the wrists and keeping the sleeves sitting exactly where they should throughout the day. Fine rib knit construction means the cardigan sits close to the body without feeling restrictive - it skims rather than clings, moving with you rather than against you. A fitted silhouette through the body means this layers easily over a fitted vest or under a coat without adding bulk around the bump. The rib knit has a smooth, close texture that feels light against the skin and holds its shape well after washing - no bagging at the elbows or drooping at the hem. It's the kind of piece that does the hard work quietly, sitting flat under a jacket or standing alone with wide-leg trousers, just as the model wears here. Fastened up with the buttons done, it reads neat enough for a family gathering or a casual lunch out. Left open over a fitted long-sleeve top, it gives a more relaxed, layered look that carries through into the cooler months. The cinched hem is the detail that makes it genuinely maternity-specific - it keeps the shape intentional rather than oversized, so you're not disappearing into the knit as the bump grows. Pair with flat mules or trainers and wide-leg trousers for an easy, put-together everyday look.
