Open Front Plaid Long Sleeve Cardigan

How to measure

Use these steps to measure your body or a similar garment to choose the best size and fit.

• Body measurements
  • Bust/Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your bust with the tape parallel to the floor and arms relaxed.
  • Waist: Measure around your natural waistline (narrowest point).
  • Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
  • Shoulder width: Measure across the back from one shoulder tip to the other.
  • Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the wrist with the arm slightly bent (or from center back neck to wrist for overall sleeve length).
• Garment measurements (recommended)
  • Lay a similar cardigan flat. Measure across the front from armpit seam to armpit seam and double that number for chest circumference.
  • Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (near the neck) down to the hem for garment length.
  • Measure sleeve length from the shoulder seam to the cuff.
• Fit guidance: Allow about 2–6 cm (1–2.5 in) of wearing ease for a fitted look and 6–12 cm (2.5–5 in) for a relaxed, layered look. If you are between sizes, size up for easier layering.

Materials

This open-front plaid cardigan is typically made from a soft knit blend designed for warmth, drape and easy care. Exact composition may vary by color and batch—always check the product tag for the definitive fiber content.

• Typical fabric composition: soft knit blend such as acrylic/polyester/viscose or acrylic/polyester/spandex. Example: ~60–70% acrylic or polyester, 20–30% viscose/other cellulosic fibers, 0–10% elastane for recovery.
• Construction: unlined open-front design with long sleeves; trims (if any) may vary by style.
• Fabric properties: soft hand, lightweight warmth, moderate drape, color retention; may show light pilling over time (removable with a fabric shaver).

Note: the exact fiber percentages are printed on the garment label—refer to that label for precise material details.

Model information

The model pictured is 5'9" (175 cm) with measurements approximately 32" bust / 24" waist / 35" hips and is wearing a size S. On the model the cardigan falls around mid-hip and shows a slightly relaxed, open-front fit. If you prefer a closer fit or plan to layer bulky knits underneath, consider sizing accordingly.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash to reduce friction; use a mild detergent.
• Turn the cardigan inside out before washing to protect the surface and the plaid pattern.
• Wash with like colors; avoid bleach and harsh stain removers.
• Do not wring. Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape while damp.
• Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight to prevent stretching and color fading; avoid tumble drying when possible.
• If required, steam or iron on low heat with a pressing cloth; avoid direct high heat on synthetic blends.
• Store folded rather than hanging long-term to prevent shoulder stretch; use cedar or natural moth repellents for long-term storage.
• To remove pilling, use a gentle fabric shaver or pill comb; spot test on an inconspicuous area first.

Style tips

Ways to wear your plaid open-front cardigan:

• Weekend casual: Layer over a white tee, skinny jeans and ankle boots for an easy everyday look.
• Office-ready: Pair with a blouse, tailored trousers and loafers for a polished, cozy layer.
• Defined waist: Add a slim belt over the cardigan to create shape and wear it over a fitted dress.
• Layering: Wear over a thin turtleneck or button-up shirt for extra warmth and texture contrast.
• Color coordination: Pick an accessory (scarf, bag or hat) in one of the plaid colors to tie the outfit together.
