Contrast Round Neck Drop Shoulder Sweater | Beige / M 100100956293157

How to Measure

Use a soft measuring tape and lay the sweater flat on a table. Smooth it gently without stretching the knit. Measurements are taken on one side unless noted.

1. Chest/Bust (A): Measure straight across from armpit seam to armpit seam. Double this number for the garment circumference.
2. Shoulder Width (B): For a drop-shoulder knit, measure across the back from the left drop-shoulder seam to the right drop-shoulder seam.
3. Sleeve Length (C): Measure from the drop-shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. Alternative method: measure from the center back at the base of the neck, across the shoulder and down to the cuff for a full arm length reference.
4. Body Length (D): Measure from the highest point of the shoulder next to the neckline rib straight down to the hem.
5. Hem Width (E): Measure straight across the bottom hem. Double for hem circumference.
6. Cuff Width (F) (optional): Measure straight across the cuff opening.

Fit notes: Drop-shoulder sweaters are designed for a relaxed silhouette. Many customers prefer 4–7 in (10–18 cm) of ease at the chest for a casual fit. Because knits can stretch, allow a tolerance of ±1 in (2–3 cm) between pieces.

Materials & Fabric

The exact fiber content may vary by color or production run. Check the product details or care label for the definitive composition. Common fibers used for contrast, round-neck, drop-shoulder sweaters include:

• Cotton: Breathable, soft, easy-care; resists static.
• Acrylic: Lightweight warmth, colorfast; helps the knit keep its shape.
• Polyester: Durable, quick-drying; adds shape retention.
• Nylon: Strength and flexibility; reinforces ribbed trims.
• Wool: Natural warmth and resilience; often blended for softness and easier care.
• Elastane/Spandex (usually 2–5% in ribs): Adds stretch and recovery at the neckline, cuffs, and hem.

Design details for this style often include a smooth knit body with contrast ribbed neckline, cuffs, and hem for definition.

Model & Fit Notes

• Silhouette: Relaxed body with dropped shoulders; seam sits below the natural shoulder line.
• Length: Typically hip-length, easy to tuck or half-tuck.
• Stretch: Moderate, thanks to the knit; ribs provide gentle hold.
• On-figure look: Sleeves have a slight slouch; body drapes without clinging.
• Size selection: Choose your usual size for a relaxed look; size up for oversized and extra slouch; size down for a neater fit through the body and sleeves.

Tip: Use the garment measurements above to compare with a sweater you own to predict fit on your body.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn inside out. Hand wash cold or machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
• Use mild detergent (wool-friendly if wool is present). Avoid bleach and fabric softener.
• For bright contrasts, wash separately the first time; consider a color-catcher sheet.
• Place in a mesh laundry bag to reduce friction and pilling.
• Do not wring. Gently press out excess water, reshape, and lay flat to dry away from heat or direct sun.
• Avoid tumble drying. Knitwear is best dried flat to maintain shape.
• Store folded rather than hanging to prevent stretching at the shoulders.
• If pilling occurs, remove gently with a fabric shaver or sweater comb—do not pull pills by hand.
• Cool iron on reverse if needed. Check the care label for dry-cleaning guidance and follow accordingly.

Style Tips

• Color coordination: Echo the contrast neckline/cuffs with your shoes, bag, or scarf for a cohesive look.
• Casual: Straight-leg denim and sneakers; add a half-tuck to define the waist.
• Elevated: Layer over a crisp button-down so the collar peeks through; pair with tailored trousers and loafers.
• Feminine balance: Contrast the relaxed top with a satin or knit midi skirt and ankle boots.
• Layering: Wear over a fitted turtleneck—matching the contrast trim color creates a polished set.
• Weekend: Style with leggings or joggers and a long coat; finish with a cap or beanie in the accent color.
• Proportions: Balance dropped shoulders with structured bottoms (e.g., cargo pants, leather skirt) to sharpen the silhouette.
