Description

Why even fall in love? Our Heartbreak jersey cardigan dress gives the romantics and the skeptics something to agree on: red broken hearts, a pale pink ground and a long, close-fitting silhouette. The print began as an original hand drawing by Quirk founder and designer, Melynda.

A jersey cardigan dress to wear your way

Button it through as a dress, leave the lower buttons open over trousers, or wear it open as a long cardigan. A V-neck and long sleeves keep the shape simple enough for the artwork to do the talking. Try it with black boots for an evening out, or layer it over a fitted tee and jeans.

  • Quirk’s original broken-heart print in red and pink
  • Longline cut with a full button front and long sleeves
  • Handmade to order in XXS–2XL
  • Two stretch-jersey fabric options

Choose your fabric

Solange Silky Jersey: a smooth, fluid knit with a soft drape, made from 95% polyester and 5% elastane. “Silky” describes its feel; this is not silk.

Soft Fashion Jersey: a soft polyester-based stretch knit with a more traditional cardigan feel. Choose this option if you prefer that texture to a silky finish. Both options feature the same Heartbreak artwork and longline shape.

Fit and body measurements

This style has a close European fit. Check your bust, natural waist and fullest hip against the chart rather than ordering by your usual letter size alone. The US equivalents are a guide; the measurements are the better starting point. XXS and 2XS refer to the same smallest size here.

My mom and I found the Peoples Free Boutique by Quirk after the fires devastated our neighborhood in Altadena. We've been building care boxes for an entire group of people, not just ourselves, and were welcomed into the space. It allowed us to recreate beautiful closets in a safe space, which has become harder to find as the relief efforts continue in the second wave. Very grateful for the energy and dedication that Melynda and her team of volunteers had shown to our community!! Go check out the Peoples Free Boutique on Spring St if you've been impacted by the fires they will help you rebuild and feel fabulous! If you weren't impacted by the fires but want to support Quirk for now you would message Melynda on Instagram to set up a shopping appointment! She's so dedicated to the relief efforts her store is still running by appointment only so she can keep the Free Boutique open! Love them!!!

Where shall I begin? My cuz and I went because we lost everything in the fire! Trent greeted us, Carmen helped me snd Allison my cuz. They treated us like Gold! We both felt very special! What a gem of a place! Everything I took home fit. The clothes were fabulous but Trent was so cool and cute, Carmen was so very helpful going out if her way for me and Allison helped my cousin hand pick his new wardrobe and not to mention she was gorgeous to boot! Thank you Quirk, Thanks for going above and beyond and for restoring my faith in humanity! Margo and Raul

I had a really good experience at Quirk. Its located in DTLA which is known to give you headaches with parking. Luckily there were several fairly priced garage options on the same block. The shop is located on the second floor of this cool, early 20th century style building. I love vintage buildings so I was hyped before I even stepped into Quirk. But once inside I was really digging the vibes. They have a really selection of vintage, modern clothes for women and men. With assistance of the curator, Melynda, I was able to grab a few items for an upcoming headshot session. I didn't have to break the bank as the items I purchased were from a $20 rack. I will def go again. I highly recommend checking it out.

I volunteered at Quirk all afternoon today, and there is so much love and support alive in that space. They are overwhelmed with so many incredible donations and every single thing is being sorted and placed directly into the free shop where fire victims can come shop and get what they need. All items are the same quality you would find in a thrift store like Buffalo Exchange. There were volunteers helping people find clothing items that fit and served their needs while they’re grappling with the loss of their homes and belongings. There are so many ways fire victims need support and this is one of them! Thank you Quirk and the other amazing organization and businesses stepping up to help our community!

Melynda totally saved the day! She came on a magical unicorn and brought me my dress! I was searching for a dress for a wedding that went with their Great Gatsby theme and was totally not sure where to begin and what to wear. She helped me find a necklace and a dress here at the shop that was absolutely perfect! I got a gold and gunmetal tassel necklace and a robin egg's blue lace Tracy Reese dress. She was even kind enough to alter the shoulders for me since the wedding was the day of! They even had a funny wedding card that for the bride and groom! Mission accomplished, now just have to get a scarf or headpiece for my head to complete the theme and Melynda gave me some tips!! Will be back for next time when I need her expertise. They have an always shifting collection of curated vintage and new clothing. Love Quirk LA!

My friends and I had a very pleasant and wonderful visit at Quirk. I got these beautiful snake skin shoes with a vintage neck scarf which i also fall in love with. I got compliments from people every time i wear them. I wanted to buy everything when I was there. There are jewelry, scarfs , shoes, dresses and the HATS. The price is very affordable so I was a happy shopper. The next best thing ( or the best ) about Quirk is the shop owner, Melynda. She is friendly and extremely helpful in helping you putting your dream outfits together and giving you advices when you needed them. She makes my shopping experience fun and comfortable. The shop is beautiful. I love the warmth and the openness of the shop. It stands out in the middle of the busy downtown LA streets. I will definitely come back and visit again when I come back to LA.
