Petite Malibu Cardigan With Tipping

Why It Works

Contrast tipping gives a plain black cardigan a finished, intentional look that reads polished without effort.

• Cream contrast tipping along the front placket, cuffs, and hem adds visual structure without pattern, making the cardigan look deliberately styled rather than basic.
• The open-front silhouette and medium-weight knit layer cleanly over a turtleneck or blouse for a full day of meetings without adding bulk.
• Sized for petite frames, the proportions hit correctly at the hip and sleeve length rather than requiring alterations.

Use Cases

• Back-to-back morning meetings
• Client-facing presentation days
• Business lunch with colleagues
• Office days requiring polished layering over a blouse or knit

Compatibility

• Pairs With: Ivory turtleneck knit top, White slim-fit trousers, Tailored dress pants in black or cream, Structured tote bag
• Outfit Contexts: Morning client presentation, All-day office meetings, Business lunch

Fit Logic

• Silhouette: Open-front, relaxed-through-body cardigan that skims rather than fits close; falls at the high hip on a petite frame with a clean shoulder line and straight hem
• Best For: Petite frames, 5'4" and under; the proportions are calibrated so the hem and sleeve length land correctly without hemming
• Styling Tip: Layer over a fitted cream or ivory turtleneck to echo the contrast tipping and create a tonal, pulled-together look from a single color palette

Care Notes

• Fabric: 60% Polyester, 38% Viscose, 2% Other Fiber
• Washing: Dry clean only
• Drying: Do not machine dry — dry clean process only
• Ironing: Not recommended without professional finishing; the smooth knit surface can be distorted by direct heat
• Special Notes: Professional dry cleaning preserves the contrast tipping and maintains the shape of the knit at the shoulder and hem
