Floral Open Front Long Sleeve Cardigan | Black / S 100100004942597

How to measure this cardigan

Use a soft measuring tape. For body measurements, stand relaxed and breathe normally. For garment measurements, lay the cardigan flat on a smooth surface and keep the tape parallel to the edges.

Measure your body (to choose the best size)

1. Bust / Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your bust/chest, keeping the tape level and snug but not tight.
2. Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your natural waist.
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips (about 7–9" / 18–23 cm below the waist for most people).
4. Sleeve / Arm length: With your arm relaxed at your side, measure from the shoulder tip (where the shoulder seam would sit) down to the wrist.
5. Shoulder width: Measure from shoulder point to shoulder point across the back.
6. Desired length: Measure from the high point of shoulder (HPS) at the base of the neck down to where you want the hem to fall.

Measure the garment (laid flat)

1. Chest (flat): Lay the cardigan flat and measure across the front 1"–2" (2–5 cm) below the armhole from side seam to side seam; double this number for the full chest circumference.
2. Shoulder (flat): Measure seam-to-seam across the top from shoulder point to shoulder point.
3. Sleeve length (flat): Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
4. Front length: Measure from the HPS (highest point of shoulder) down to the hem.
5. Hem width (flat): Measure across the bottom hem from side to side and double for circumference.

Fit tip: This open-front cardigan is designed for a relaxed, layered look. For a comfortable layered fit allow approximately 2–4" (5–10 cm) of ease over your bust measurement; choose one size smaller for a closer fit.

Materials & construction

Floral open-front long sleeve cardigans are commonly made from lightweight knit blends that emphasize drape, print clarity and comfort. Exact fiber content can vary by color or print; always refer to the product label for the definitive composition.

• Common blends:
  • Rayon/Viscose blends (e.g., 60% rayon / 35% polyester / 5% spandex) — very soft with excellent drape; ideal for flowing silhouettes and vivid prints.
  • Polyester blends (e.g., 95% polyester / 5% spandex) — durable, colorfast and low-wrinkle; keeps print colors bright and resists stretching.
  • Cotton blends (e.g., 70% cotton / 25% polyester / 5% spandex) — breathable with a natural feel and more structure; may need gentle care to avoid shrinkage.
• Construction: Open-front design (no buttons), long sleeves, printed knit fabric. Edges are typically hemmed or finished with narrow binding.

Label note: If you need the exact fiber percentages and care symbols, please check the garment's sewn-in label or the product details on the listing page.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn the cardigan inside out before washing to protect the print and colors.
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash; use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach.
• Avoid fabric softeners if the item contains spandex (they can reduce stretch recovery).
• Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry to prevent stretching and maintain shape. Tumble dry on low only if label permits.
• If ironing is needed, use low heat and iron inside out or use a cloth between iron and fabric. Steam is a safe alternative to remove wrinkles.
• Store folded rather than hanging for long periods to avoid shoulder stretching; if you hang, use a wide or padded hanger.
• To reduce pilling, wash inside out, avoid abrasive surfaces, and use a fabric shaver gently if pills appear.
• Spot-clean small stains promptly; for stubborn stains, follow the garment’s care label—professional dry cleaning only if specified.

Style tips

• Everyday casual: Layer over a white tee or tank and slim jeans; finish with sneakers or flat sandals for an easy look.
• Work-ready: Wear over a simple blouse or sleeveless shell with tailored trousers and loafers or low heels.
• Date-night / Dressy: Throw over a slip dress or fitted midi dress; add heeled sandals and a delicate necklace to elevate the look.
• Belt it: Add a slim belt at the waist to turn the open cardigan into a structured top and define your silhouette.
• Balance proportions: Because this is a longline cardigan, pair with slim or tapered bottoms (skinny jeans, pencil skirts) to keep the outfit balanced.
• Color coordination: Pick one color from the floral print for your underlayer or accessories to create a polished, cohesive outfit.
• Transitional layering: Use it as a mid-layer under a coat in cooler months or over a lightweight sweater on chilly spring days.
