In my opinion, springtime is the perfect season to refresh your knitwear. When it’s not hot enough to leave the house bare shouldered, but no longer too chilly to have to hide under seemingly endless layers, this wardrobe hero really gets to shine.
With this in mind I’m looking to add something new to my collection, and I’ve been focusing my search towards the chic cropped cardigans that I’ve been seeing everywhere recently. Crafted from traditional wools, cottons and cashmeres, cropped cardigans retain a cosy edge, yet sometimes style even better with light layers than their longline counterparts.
A mainstay in the wardrobes of most French women (at least the ones I follow), a cropped cardigan adds a playful touch to even the most basic of looks. Style with a cotton vest top and high-waisted jeans for an effortlessly chic look that any Parisian would commend you for, or wear with a light cotton dress and mary janes for an easy, spring-ready ensemble.
Whilst the French have been styling this specific knit for years, brands in the UK are finally catching on to its appeal in a significant way. Up and down the high street and throughout designer offerings, the crop cardigan trend can be found in a multitude of guises and at any price point.
