Chateau Cardigan

This midweight knit cardigan leans into a 1960s mod aesthetic with its sharp, geometric caramel pattern and high-contrast black faux fur trim. The slim, tailored fit is punctuated by a structured button-front placket and exaggerated, plush cuffs that hit just at the wrist. It’s a playful nod to retro hostess wear that trades beach-ready fluidity for a more contained, polished silhouette.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is composed primarily of petroleum-based synthetics including polyester, nylon, and acrylic, with a viscose blend base. These materials offer poor breathability, high potential for microplastic shedding, and are often treated with chemical finishes to achieve the required drape and texture.
