POL Pearl Detail Open Front Sleeveless Cardigan — Product information

How to measure

Two easy methods — measure your body for the best fit, or measure a similar garment that fits you well. Use a flexible tape measure and record in centimetres or inches.

Measure your body (to choose a size)

• Bust / Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest with your arms relaxed at your sides. Keep the tape level and not pulled too tight.
• Shoulder width: Measure across the back from the bony point of one shoulder to the other (where a shoulder seam would sit).
• Waist: Measure around the narrowest point of your waist (natural waistline).
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/seat.
• Torso / Garment length you prefer: From the top of shoulder (where you want the cardigan to start) down to the desired hemline.
• Arm circumference (optional): Measure around the fullest part of the upper arm if you plan to layer over thicker sleeves.

Measure a garment (recommended for accuracy)

Lay a similar-fitting cardigan or vest flat on a table — smooth but don’t stretch the fabric — then measure:

• Pit-to-pit (chest): Measure straight across from one underarm seam to the other. Double this number to get the full chest circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back.
• Armhole depth: Measure vertically from the top of the armhole to the bottom of the armhole.
• Length: Measure from the top of the shoulder near the neckline straight down to the hem.
• Hem width: Measure straight across the bottom hem and double for full circumference.
• Write down measurements for the size you’re considering and compare to your body or to the size chart; if between sizes consider sizing up for layering or down for a closer fit.

Materials

Typical construction for this style:

• Main fabric: Soft knit — commonly a viscose, acrylic or polyester blend for drape and softness (example: viscose/polyester/nylon blend). Exact fibre content may vary by color and production run.
• Trim: Decorative pearl details (faux pearls) securely stitched to the knit. Pearls are usually acrylic or resin; some styles may use glass-backed beads.
• Lining: Generally unlined (lightweight knit meant for layering).
• Stretch: Moderate horizontal stretch typical of knitted fabrics.

Note: If you need the precise fibre breakdown for a specific colour or production batch, please check the product label or the detailed product/specs section on the product page.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Always check the garment care label first — manufacturer instructions take priority.
• Washing: Hand wash cold or machine wash on a gentle/delicate cycle inside a mesh laundry bag. Use a mild detergent. Turn the cardigan inside out to protect the pearls.
• Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape and lay flat to dry in the shade to avoid stretching and colour fade.
• Do not wring: Press water out gently between towels if hand washing; avoid twisting the knit.
• Ironing/steaming: If needed, steam or iron on a low setting from the wrong side, avoiding direct contact with the pearls. Place a cloth between the iron and the fabric if necessary.
• Stain & spot care: Spot-clean around pearls using a damp soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the bead area for long periods.
• Pearl care: Pearls and decorative beads are delicate — avoid snagging with jewelry or bags. If a pearl becomes loose, secure it with small stitches from the inside using matching thread or take to a tailor.
• Pilling: Use a fabric shaver or sweater comb gently to remove pills; do so with care around the pearl embellishments.
• Storage: Store folded in a drawer or on a padded hanger. If hanging, use a broad or padded hanger to avoid shoulder distortion. Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture. Place tissue between folds for long-term storage to protect embellishments.
• Professional cleaning: If unsure or heavily soiled, dry cleaning is a safe option — mention the delicate pearls to the cleaner.

Style tips

• Day casual: Layer the sleeveless cardigan over a white tee and high-rise jeans; add loafers or low-top sneakers for an effortless look.
• Office ready: Wear over a fitted blouse or sleeveless shell and tailored trousers. Add a slim belt to define the waist and low heels for a polished silhouette.
• Evening: Slip it on over a satin slip dress or camisole for a soft, feminine finish — pearls add subtle sparkle without heavy jewelry.
• Layering: For cooler days wear over a lightweight turtleneck or long-sleeve tee. Because it’s sleeveless, it layers easily without bulk under a coat.
• Accessories: Keep accessories minimal to let the pearl detail stand out — small studs, a delicate chain, and a structured bag work well.
• Colour pairing: Pearls pair beautifully with neutrals and pastels. For contrast, try over a monochrome base in black or navy to let the pearls pop.
• Fit styling: If you want a more defined shape, belt at the waist; leave open for a relaxed, drapey look.
