Full Size One Button Half Sleeve Cardigan Plus Size | Apricot / S 100100931246627

How to measure

Below are quick, reliable ways to measure both your body and the cardigan so you can pick the best fit. Use a soft tape measure and measure in a relaxed, natural stance. Give yourself about 1–2 finger widths of comfort unless you want a closer fit.

Measure your body

• Bust/Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Keep the tape level and not too tight.
• Waist: Measure around the natural waist (the narrowest part), keeping the tape relaxed.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
• Shoulder width: Measure from the tip of one shoulder across the back to the tip of the other shoulder.
• Sleeve length (for planning): From the shoulder point down the arm to where you want the sleeve to end.
• Torso/Top length preference: Measure from the high point of the shoulder (base of neck) down to where you want the cardigan hem to sit.

Measure the cardigan (garment laid flat)

Lay the cardigan flat on a table and smooth it—don’t stretch.

• Chest / Bust (laid flat): Measure from armpit seam to armpit seam across the front, then double that number to get the full circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure seam to seam across the back.
• Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve.
• Front/overall length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (HPS) straight down to the hem.
• Hem width: Measure across the bottom and double to get circumference.
• Button placement: Measure from the top to the button center (useful if you want where the cardigan closes on your body).

Tip: Allow 2–4 in (5–10 cm) of ease at the bust for comfortable layering. Compare your body measurements to the garment measurements (not just size labels) when choosing a size.

Materials

Typical fabric blends for this type of plus-size cardigan include combinations like viscose/viscose-rayon, polyester, acrylic or cotton with a small percentage of elastane/spandex for stretch. Example blend: 60% viscose / 35% polyester / 5% elastane (actual composition may vary by color or batch).

• Viscose/Rayon: soft, drapey and breathable.
• Polyester/Acrylic: increases durability, color retention and helps resist wrinkles.
• Elastane/Spandex: adds comfortable stretch and recovery.

Always check the product label or product details panel for the exact fiber content and any special care symbols specific to this item.

Care Guide — To keep it lovely longer

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash. Turn the cardigan inside out before washing.
• Use a mild detergent and wash with like colors. Avoid bleach and strong detergents.
• Place in a mesh laundry bag when machine washing to protect the button and knit surface.
• Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry in shape on a clean towel or drying rack to prevent stretching.
• If needed, steam or iron on low heat with a cloth between iron and fabric. Avoid ironing directly over buttons.
• For knits that pill over time, remove pills gently with a fabric shaver or a sweater comb.
• Store folded rather than hanging to prevent shoulder stretch—if hanging, use wide padded hangers.
• Follow any additional instructions on the garment care label (some blends or trims may require dry cleaning).

Style Tips

• Wear it open with a fitted tee or tank and high-rise jeans for a casual, balanced silhouette.
• Buttoned at the single front button creates a slight waist emphasis—pair with a midi skirt or tailored trousers for a polished look.
• Belt over the cardigan at the waist to accentuate curves and create a modern layered outfit.
• Half sleeves are perfect for showing bracelets or layering a long-sleeve tee underneath on cooler days.
• Neutral colors pair easily with prints; bright shades add a pop over monochrome outfits.
• For office wear, pair with a camisole, slim trousers and loafers or low heels. For weekend, swap trousers for relaxed denim and sneakers.
• Accessories: long pendant necklaces or a lightweight scarf add vertical lines and visual interest without bulk.
