1950s Kimberly Knitwear Cream Bouclé Cardigan – Faux Pearl Button Detail

Description

 Description:

The kind of cardigan Jackie O would toss over her shoulders on the way to a private gallery viewing. This 1950s/60s-era bouclé knit cardigan by Kimberly Knitwear is sculpted in a soft cream wool blend and finished with dainty faux pearl buttons. Bracelet-length sleeves and a slightly cropped hem create a crisp, timeless line, while the texture brings just enough charm to layer into modern wardrobes. A capsule essential for the quiet collector or the polished minimalist.

Styling Suggestions:
