Design and availability

It fastens at the front with a row of buttons and includes feminine ruffle detailing on the cuffs and hem. The knit is crafted with a durable blend fabric with a touch of wool for a premium feel, without being itchy or scratchy against skin.

Shoppers can choose from sizes extra small to extra large, most of which are still in stock online. The cardigan is described as a wardrobe essential that can be styled with jeans, dresses, skirts, or trousers.

Shopper reviews

One satisfied shopper said: "Lovely pretty cardigan that can be worn as a top on its own. Really soft fabric and colour is nice."

A second wrote: "Ordered both small and medium as usually I am size 12. The small was a perfect fit which I kept returned the medium. Quality is good feels quite soft and good thickness, not too thin or too thick. Different colour for me but very in vogue at the moment."

Another reviewer added: "A pretty cardigan that can be dressed up with a dress or skirt or with trousers. Fits a little large which I like for a more mature lady. Lovely colour, khaki, which looks very expensive. I'm looking forward to wearing it come the cooler weather."

One shopper declared: "Lovely quality jumper nice and soft and cosy. Great colour for autumn. Good length sleeves."

Mixed feedback

However, not all reviews were positive. One shopper gave the cardigan a three-star review, saying: "Lovely feeling but the sleeves were so so long and couldn’t turn back due to ruffle."

A two-star review mentioned: "Looked really nice online. I have returned this as it was very big, the arms really wide. Colour grey was a bit darker than it looked on website."

Despite this, another shopper loved their purchase, adding: "A great smart cardigan. I love the ruffles on the sleeves and hem, it's really warm. Others reviewers have mentioned the sleeve length but I found it fine and I am 5ft 3ins. I really like the olive green colour."

Another five-star review reads: "Lovely colour green and I particularly liked the ruffle which made it different. The wool was very soft and the cardigan fits true to size. I am looking forward to wearing this item in the cooler days. An excellent buy for the price."
