This timeless 1950's cream cashmere mix cardigan, embellished with a swirling soutache embroidery design in a cream rayon ribbon, is just the piece to keep away the chill this season.
The rounded neckline is framed by a slim ribbed knit design. The simple shoulder line, sets off the full length inset sleeves, which are finished with wide ribbed cuffs. The timeless cut, is accented by the intricate soutache embroidery features, which trails along either side of the front of the bodice and along the nape. Finished with pearlescent buttons, this magnificent cardigan truly showcases the craftsmanship of the era. This cardigan is only lined behind the embroidery designs.
