This season, the crew neck sweater, revisited in a style inspired by the 1980s, is a key piece for fall and winter. Made from ribbed knit, it is appealing for its softness and natural elasticity, ideal for optimal comfort.
Its signature feature? A practical and stylish zipper that allows you to play with volume! Wear it open for a relaxed and cozy look, or closed for a more structured and chic look. Here, the XL collar is deliberately spread over the shoulders, adding a bold fashion statement.
