Open Front Long Sleeve Cardigan with Pockets | Mocha / S 100100759631692

How to measure

For accurate sizing and to list garment measurements, lay the cardigan flat on a smooth surface. Smooth wrinkles without stretching the fabric and use a flexible tape measure. Record measurements in cm and inches. When a measurement is taken flat, double it to get the full circumference unless noted otherwise.

Bust / Chest (flat → circumference)

Measure straight across the front 1–2 cm (½ inch) below the armhole from seam to seam. Double that flat number to get the full chest circumference.

Shoulder width

Measure straight across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam. If the style has a dropped shoulder, measure from the outer edge where the sleeve joins the body across to the opposite edge.

Sleeve length

Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. For drop-shoulder styles without a defined shoulder seam, measure from the high point of the shoulder (near the neck) to the cuff.

Total length (HPS to hem)

Measure from the High Point Shoulder (HPS — where the shoulder meets the base of the neck) straight down to the bottom hem.

Hem width (flat → circumference)

Measure straight across the bottom hem, then double that flat number for the hem circumference.

Armhole / Sleeve opening

Measure across the armhole opening from seam to seam and double for circumference; useful for seeing how much room fits through the sleeve.

Tips:

• Measure in both cm and inches for clarity.
• Keep the tape straight and snug but do not stretch the fabric.
• Allow a 1–2 cm (0.5–1 in) tolerance for hand-measured garment listings.

Materials

Fabric: soft knit with gentle stretch. Typical composition for this style:

• 60% Viscose / 35% Polyester / 5% Elastane — soft drape, breathable, slight stretch for comfort
• Pockets and trim: same knit fabric (unlined)

Material properties:

• Medium-weight knit that layers well without bulk
• Good drape and recovery due to viscose and elastane blend
• Durable and low-maintenance thanks to polyester content

Note: Always check the garment care label for the exact fibre content for the specific piece you receive.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash to preserve fibres and shape.
• Turn the cardigan inside out before washing to protect the surface.
• Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach and fabric softeners that can break down fibres.
• Do not wring. Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape while damp.
• Lay flat to dry on a clean towel or drying rack to prevent shoulder stretching; avoid hanging wet garments.
• If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting or steam from a short distance; avoid direct high heat on knit fibres.
• To remove pills, use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb carefully. Prevent pilling by washing inside out and avoiding heavy abrasion.
• Store folded rather than on hangers if the cardigan is heavy, to avoid stretching at the shoulders.
• Dry clean only if the care label specifies it for that particular composition.

Style tips

• Casual: Layer over a tee and slim jeans with sneakers for an effortless everyday look.
• Office: Wear over a lightweight blouse and tailored trousers; add loafers or low heels for a polished feel.
• Layered warmth: Add a thin turtleneck beneath and a scarf on cooler days — the open-front silhouette makes layering simple.
• Define your waist: Add a belt over the cardigan to create shape and elevate the outfit.
• Texture play: Pair with smooth fabrics (silk blouse) or a ribbed knit bottom to create visual interest.
• Travel-friendly: The knit packs well and provides comfortable warmth on planes—keep it folded in your carry-on to prevent stretching.
• Accessorize: Long necklaces or a structured bag complement the vertical lines of an open-front cardigan.
