And The Why Full Size Printed Thermal Hooded Open Front Cardigan | Coral Multi / S 100100960391890

How to measure this cardigan

To pick the best size, measure a similar cardigan you already own (recommended) or measure your body. Use a soft tape measure, lay the garment flat, and avoid stretching the fabric.

Measuring the garment (recommended)

1. Lay the cardigan flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching.
2. Bust / Chest (flat): measure straight across the front about 1" (2.5 cm) below the armholes, seam to seam. Multiply by 2 to get the full circumference.
3. Shoulder width: measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back. If there’s no defined seam (drop or raglan), measure across the top edge from armhole edge to armhole edge.
4. Sleeve length: for set-in sleeves measure from shoulder seam to cuff. For raglan or drop shoulders, measure from the center back at the base of the neck to the end of the cuff.
5. Back length (center back): measure from the highest point of the shoulder at the base of the neck straight down to the hem.
6. Front length: measure from the shoulder point near the neckline down to the front hem if it differs from the back.
7. Hem width: measure across the bottom hem seam from side to side and double it for circumference.
8. Hood depth: measure from the center back neckline up and over to the center front neckline, or measure the hood from center back seam to the front edge while lying flat.

Measuring your body

• Bust: measure around the fullest part of your chest with the tape parallel to the floor.
• Waist: measure around the natural waistline (narrowest part).
• Hips: measure around the fullest part of the hips with feet together.
• Compare your body measurements to the garment measurements and allow about 1–3" (2.5–7.5 cm) of ease for comfortable layering.

Materials & Fabric

Exact composition can vary by production run and color — always check the product label or page for precise fiber content. Typical material details for this style:

• Main fabric: thermal waffle knit — commonly a cotton/polyester blend (for example, 60% cotton / 40% polyester) or sometimes polyester blends with a small amount of spandex for added stretch.
• Weight & feel: medium-weight textured waffle, soft to the touch, breathable and ideal for layering.
• Print: printed design applied to the knit surface (digital or screen printing). With proper care, the print should stay vibrant.
• Trims: hood drawstring, open-front finishing and pockets are typically constructed from the same knit or matching trims; metal/plastic hardware varies by style.

Model & Fit

Example reference (replace with actual product-specific model details if available):

• Model height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Wearing size: Small (S)
• Example model measurements: Bust 33" / 84 cm • Waist 25" / 63 cm • Hips 35" / 89 cm
• Fit notes: relaxed, open-front silhouette designed for easy layering. On the example model the cardigan falls around mid-hip. For a closer fit size down; for extra layering room size up.
• Length and sleeve proportions vary by size — compare to a similar garment laid flat for the best match.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle; turn the cardigan inside out to protect the print and texture.
• Use a mild detergent — avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
• Do not use fabric softener regularly; it can reduce the waffle texture and affect print longevity.
• Dry flat to preserve shape and texture. If you use a dryer, tumble dry low and remove promptly to reduce wrinkles.
• Iron on low heat on the reverse side only; do not iron directly on printed areas.
• Spot-treat stains promptly with a mild detergent and cold water.
• Fold for long-term storage or use a wide-shoulder hanger for short-term storage to avoid stretching; keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Style Tips

• Everyday casual: layer over a fitted tee or tank with skinny jeans and sneakers for an easy, put-together look.
• Cozy travel: pair with leggings or joggers, a long-line tee and slip-on shoes; add a beanie for extra warmth.
• Work-smart: wear over a blouse with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt and loafers for a comfortable office outfit.
• Dress it up: belt the open front at the waist over a midi dress to create definition and a polished silhouette.
• Accessorize simply: choose one color from the print for a scarf, bag, or shoe to tie the look together; keep jewelry minimal with busy prints.
• Layering tip: because it’s open-front, balance proportions with fitted layers underneath or add a belt to create shape.
