Angel Wings Daisy Pattern Button Front Cardigan | Gray / S 100100119444160

Angel Wings Daisy Pattern Cardigan — Detailed Overview

A soft, floral-knitted layering piece with a feminine daisy motif and a comfortable button-front silhouette. Designed to bring an approachable, polished look to everyday outfits, this cardigan mixes a cozy hand-feel with enough structure to look put-together when buttoned or casually undone. The textured trim and button closure create visual interest while remaining easy to style.

Fabric Advantages — Pros & Cons

• Pros
  • Soft, lightweight warmth that mimics natural wools without itchiness.
  • Good shape retention; resists heavy wrinkling and holds patterns and color vibrancy well.
  • Stretch and recovery that make movement comfortable and layering easy.
  • Durable to regular wear and simple laundering compared with delicate natural knits.
  • Quick-drying and low-maintenance for everyday use and travel.
• Cons
  • May develop pilling over time, especially where there is frequent friction (under arms, sides, and where bags contact fabric).
  • Less breathable than cotton or linen—can feel warm in high heat.
  • Synthetic blends can retain some odors if not washed regularly.
  • Not as biodegradable as natural fiber garments; microfibre shedding can occur in the wash unless mitigated.

About the Fibers — What Each Material Adds

This cardigan is constructed from a trio of synthetic yarns. Each fiber contributes specific performance and hand-feel characteristics:

• Acrylic: Lightweight, warm and soft with a wool-like appearance. It takes color well, so prints and motifs remain bright. Acrylic can be prone to pilling under friction.
• Polyester: Adds strength, wrinkle resistance and fast-drying properties. It helps garments keep their shape and resist shrinking in regular machine washes.
• Nylon: Brings smoothness, abrasion resistance and a touch of stretch. Nylon improves durability and the fabric’s ability to spring back after wear.

Practical note: synthetic blends are easy-care and travel-friendly, but to minimize environmental impact, consider using a laundry bag or microfiber-capturing filter and avoid excessive high-heat drying.

How to Measure the Garment (for Accurate Fit)

If you’re comparing this cardigan to your wardrobe, measure a similar knit you already own laid flat and relaxed:

1. Chest (laid flat) — measure across the front from one underarm seam to the other; double that number for full circumference.
2. Shoulder / Across Back — for a dropped-shoulder style, measure from the outer edge of one shoulder to the other at the widest point of the back.
3. Sleeve Length — measure from the seam where the sleeve meets the body to the cuff. If there’s no defined seam (dropped shoulder), measure from the top of the arm where you expect the sleeve to sit down to the wrist.
4. Garment Length — measure from the highest point of the shoulder or the center-back neck straight down to the hem.

How to Measure Yourself (to Choose the Best Size)

1. Bust / Chest — wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it level and snug but not tight. This is the key number for cardigans.
2. Shoulder — measure from the outer bone of one shoulder across the back to the other outer bone to check how the shoulder will sit.
3. Sleeve — with your arm relaxed at your side, measure from the point you want the shoulder to sit (shoulder seam or natural shoulder point) down to where you want the sleeve to end.
4. Torso Length — measure from the base of your neck (center back) down to the length you prefer for a cardigan.
5. Compare & Add Ease — for a fitted look allow about 0–2 inches (0–5 cm) of ease; for comfortable layering aim for 3–6 inches (8–15 cm) of ease; for oversized styling add 6 inches (15 cm) or more.

Fit Notes & Model Reference

This cardigan has a relaxed, slightly slouchy construction that flatters by skimming the body rather than clinging tightly. The shoulder line sits lower than a tailored top, which produces a casual drape across the upper arm and chest—ideal for light layers underneath. If you prefer a neater silhouette, select the smaller of two sizes; if you want more room for chunky knits and layering, size up.

Color & Styling Combinations

The daisy motif brings a playful, vintage-inspired note—use that as the focal point of your outfit. Practical pairing ideas:

• Neutral base tones (denim, beige, soft cream) let the floral pattern stand out for everyday looks.
• Match one accent color from the motif with your bottoms or accessories for coordinated styling (e.g., a skirt or handbag in a complementing shade).
• Layer over a fitted tee or lightweight turtleneck for contrast in both silhouette and texture.
• For a feminine touch, button and tuck the front into a high-waisted skirt or pants and finish with a slim belt.

Style Profile — Where It Fits in Your Wardrobe

This is a casual-chic wardrobe staple that transitions between relaxed weekend looks and more polished office-casual outfits. Its patterned knit reads modern yet softly romantic, making it a versatile piece for mixing with jeans, tailored trousers, or flowy skirts.

Seasonal Wear Guidance

• Best suited for transitional seasons—spring and autumn—when light-to-medium layers are ideal.
• Works well on cool summer evenings over a thin tee or tank.
• In winter it can be layered under a coat or over a thermal base for added warmth but is not a heavy outer layer on its own.

Care Tips & Quick Maintenance Notes

• Turn the cardigan inside out before washing to protect the pattern and surface texture.
• Use a gentle cycle with cool water and a mild liquid detergent formulated for delicates.
• Place in a mesh laundry bag to reduce abrasion and microfibre release.
• Dry flat on a clean towel, reshaping the garment while damp—this preserves the silhouette and avoids stretching.
• Minimize tumble-drying; if you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat and shortest time and remove promptly while slightly damp.
• Remove pills gently with a fabric shaver or pill comb when they appear rather than picking at them.
• Store folded, not hung, to prevent shoulder stretch—stack with breathable tissue to avoid creasing in long-term storage.

Care Guide — To Keep It Lovely Longer

1. Spot-treat stains as soon as possible using a gentle detergent diluted in cool water; blot, don’t rub.
2. When machine-washing, choose a low-spin or delicate setting to limit mechanical stress on the knit.
3. Avoid bleach and heavy fabric softeners; softeners can coat synthetic fibers and diminish breathability and moisture handling.
4. To reduce microfibre shedding: use a microfiber-catching laundry bag or install a filter in your washing machine, and wash less frequently by airing out after light wear.
5. For stubborn wrinkles, use a handheld steamer rather than a hot iron; if using an iron, place a cloth between iron and fabric and use a low heat setting.

FAQ

Will this cardigan pill?

Like many soft synthetic knits, light pilling can appear over time in high-friction areas. Regular gentle care and using a pill remover will keep the surface looking fresh.

Can I machine wash it?

Yes—use a delicate cycle and cool water, preferably inside out in a mesh bag. Lay flat to dry for best results.

Does it run true to size?

The design is intended to be relaxed. If you prefer a more fitted look, consider sizing down; for a roomy or layered look, choose your regular size or size up.

Is the floral motif embroidered or knitted?

The pattern is integrated into the knit so the design is part of the fabric rather than a surface applique, which creates a smooth finish and better long-term durability.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Most wearers find the knit soft and non-irritating, but if you have very sensitive skin, layer a thin cotton tee underneath or test by wearing for short periods first.

How should I remove pills?

Use a battery or electric fabric shaver designed for knits, or a gentle sweater comb. Work on a flat surface and be careful not to press too hard.

Style Tips — Outfit Ideas

• Everyday Casual: Wear open over a plain white tee, cuffed jeans and white sneakers for an effortless weekend look.
• Smart Casual: Layer over a slim blouse and tailored trousers; add loafers and minimal gold jewelry for a polished office outfit.
• Feminine Twist: Button the cardigan and tuck it into a midi skirt with ankle boots; add a narrow belt to define the waist.
• Layered Warmth: Slip it over a lightweight turtleneck and under a coat for added insulation on chillier days.
• Playful Pop: Coordinate accessories (bag, scarf, or shoes) with one of the motif’s accent colors to make the pattern sing.
