Why You'll Love It
- Floral embroidery — delicate embroidered flowers add an artisan, handcraft character that elevates this above a plain knit cardigan.
- Beige colourway — the most versatile base colour for knitwear; pairs effortlessly with every other wardrobe tone.
- Duster length — the extended longline silhouette adds drama, elongation and elegance that a standard-length cardigan can't achieve.
- Drop-shoulder silhouette — the dropped shoulder creates a relaxed, slightly oversized quality that makes the cardigan feel more considered than a standard cut.
- Open front — draped, unfastened design that layers effortlessly over any outfit without restriction.
- Elegant boho layering — the embroidery gives this a bohemian, artisan character while the duster silhouette adds elegance.
Fabric & Care
Acrylic knit with embroidery detail. Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Lay flat to air dry to maintain the embroidery and duster length. Do not tumble dry or bleach.

FAQs
Is embroidered knitwear durable?
Yes — embroidery on knitwear is sewn through the fabric and is durable for regular wear. Take care when washing by using a gentle cycle and laying flat to dry to protect the embroidery stitching. Avoid snagging the embroidery on rough surfaces or jewellery.
Is this cardigan true to UK sizing?
This is an open-front layering piece with a drop-shoulder silhouette — there's no specific fitting requirement. Check the bust and shoulder width against the size guide below to ensure the cardigan sits well when draped.
What is duster length?
A duster falls below the knee — typically to mid-calf or ankle length. This extended length is the defining feature of the duster silhouette, creating the dramatic elongation that distinguishes it from a longline or standard cardigan.
Can I wear this duster in summer?
In UK summers when evenings cool down, a lightweight beige duster is an excellent layering option. The open front provides warmth without bulk and the embroidery detail adds a special-occasion quality to summer evening outfits.
Does the floral embroidery cover the whole cardigan?
The embroidery is typically placed as a feature detail — panels, borders or scattered motifs across the garment — rather than covering the entire surface. This creates a deliberate, considered look while keeping the base beige fabric visible.
