Long Sleeve Open Cardigan with Front Pockets

A smooth polyester-viscose flat-knit cardigan with an open front, mock-stand collar, long sleeves with ribbed cuffs, and two hip-level pockets with gold-tone button-tab detail. The kind of layer that makes a fitted trouser-and-blouse combination feel complete without adding bulk on a chilly morning commute or a full day of back-to-back meetings.

How to Style It
Why It Works
A work-ready open cardigan with real pockets and a polished flat-knit finish that layers cleanly over professional separates.
- The polyester-viscose flat-knit holds its structure across a full workday without stretching out or losing shape at the shoulders
- Two deep hip-level pockets with button-tab detail solve the nowhere-to-put-anything problem without compromising the clean front line
- The open front and mock-stand collar work over fitted blouses, shell tops, or button-downs without adding bulk or disrupting the silhouette underneath
Use Cases
- Office meeting on a cool morning
- Client lunch where a blazer feels too formal
- Commute layer over a fitted blouse and trousers
- Casual Friday at the office over slim pants and a shell top
Compatibility
- Pairs With: Slim-leg trousers, Fitted shell top or blouse, Structured tote bag, Block heel pump
- Outfit Contexts: Client meeting at the office, Office lunch on a cool day, Saturday morning errands over a weekend outfit
Fit Logic
- Silhouette: Relaxed open-front cut with a mock-stand collar, long sleeves, and a straight hem that falls at the high hip; drapes smoothly without clinging to the torso
- Best For: Works across most body types; the high-hip length and open front create a clean vertical line that suits petite to tall frames; pairs best layered over fitted or slim-cut pieces to avoid adding volume
- Styling Tip: Layer over a slim-fit trouser and tucked shell top to keep the silhouette long and unbroken — avoid wide-leg trousers, which can compete with the relaxed cut
Care Notes
- Fabric: 62% Polyester, 38% Viscose flat-knit
- Washing: Hand wash cold
- Drying: Lay flat to dry to maintain shape and prevent stretching
- Ironing: Low heat if needed; avoid high temperature on viscose content
- Special Notes: Turn inside out before washing to preserve the flat-knit surface finish

Are the front pockets actually functional, or are they decorative?
The pockets are functional hip-level patch pockets, deep enough to hold a phone or small essentials without stretching the fabric. The button-tab detail keeps the opening neat when pockets are in use.
What does the fabric feel like — is it more structured or drapey?
The 62% polyester, 38% viscose blend produces a smooth, flat-knit fabric that sits between structured and drapey. It holds its shape well through the day without feeling stiff, and the matte finish reads more polished than a typical casual knit.
Can this be worn as a standalone top or does it need to be layered?
The open-front design means it works best as a layering piece over a fitted top, shell, or blouse. The mock-stand collar and clean placket create a polished finish whether worn over a tailored button-down or a simple knit shell.
