Women's Black Metal Clasp Collar Cardigan

Metal clasp fastening runs the full length of the front - each closure is a polished hook-and-bar hardware piece rather than a standard button, giving the cardigan a distinctly architectural quality. Matching metal clasp detail at the cuffs echoes the front fastening and adds a considered, finished look to the sleeve. A wide-spread collar sits open at the neck, lending a shirt-like structure that reads more tailored than typical knitwear. Fine ribbed knit construction throughout - the vertical lines run clean and close, helping the piece sit neatly against the body without pulling. Viscose-rich knit with a soft drape and cool handfeel that skims the body - it moves with you rather than adding bulk, and the natural breathability keeps it comfortable across seasons. The hardware is doing the heavy lifting here. Those metal clasp fastenings transform what could be a straightforward ribbed cardigan into something with real presence - the kind of detail that reads effortlessly considered rather than overdressed. The collar opens naturally into a relaxed spread, so you can wear it fully fastened for a sleek, pulled-together finish or leave the top clasp open for a more relaxed dcolletage. The ribbed knit skims close to the body without being restrictive, and the drape means it tucks cleanly into high-waisted trousers or sits well over a midi skirt. The model wears it with dark wide-leg jeans, which balances the cardigan's structured front perfectly. For the office, pair it with tailored wide-leg trousers and a pointed-toe heel. Come the weekend, it works just as well over a slip skirt with minimal jewellery. A versatile piece that moves between smart-casual and elevated day dressing with very little effort required. | Karen Millen Women's Metal Clasp Collar Cardigan in Camel | Size: Small Colour: black
