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](https://shopquirkla.com/vintage-fashion-boutique/).

## 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.

 Body measurements — inches and centimeters  |  Size |  US guide |  Bust |  Waist |  Hips |  
   |  XXS |  2 |  29.9–31.5 in / 76–80 cm |  22.4–24.0 in / 57–61 cm |  33.1–34.6 in / 84–88 cm |

 |  L |  10 |  36.6–39.0 in / 93–99 cm |  29.3–31.5 in / 74.5–80 cm |  40.0–42.1 in / 101.5–107 cm |  
 |  XL |  12 |  39.0–41.3 in / 99–105 cm |  31.5–33.9 in / 80–86 cm |  42.1–44.5 in / 107–113 cm |

These are body ranges, not finished garment measurements. Inch values are rounded
conversions. If you are between sizes or want room for a layer underneath, [ask us about fit before ordering](https://shopquirkla.com/contact-us/).
