Ben Cardigan

This cardigan is cut with a boxy, cropped geometry that hits just at the waist, emphasizing a structured, vintage-inspired silhouette. The slinky knit features a fine, dense gauge and is punctuated by metallic button hardware and mock welt pockets that mimic the look of a structured jacket. It leans into a clean, minimal aesthetic, functioning best as a sharp top layer over slip skirts or high-waisted denim.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The composition is a blend of 100% synthetic fibers (acrylic, polyester, and polyamide), which are petroleum-derived plastics. These materials lack natural breathability and may trap heat against the skin, while the "dry clean only" requirement suggests a reliance on chemical solvents for maintenance.
