Sweet and pretty our little 1950’s styled cardi is must for every wardrobe.

Featuring cables, eyelets, a deep cabled waistband and a nipped in waist this is a very flattering cardigan which is reminiscent of vintage styling and yet fits in beautifully with a modern wardrobe and lifestyle.

This cardigan likes to be taken out for afternoon tea and a stroll along the river, or going to a tea dance, but it can also fit in very stylishly at a board meeting, and then be layered over a little back dress and take you out to cocktails. Every wardrobe needs one.
