Perfect For
The Raquel cardigan works beautifully for casual daytime outings, weekend brunches, and office settings where a light layer is welcome. Its button-front design makes it easy to style open or closed, so it transitions smoothly from a relaxed afternoon look to a polished evening out. The soft knit construction and short sleeve length make it a go-to for mild weather days when you want coverage without warmth.
Styling Tips
Wear the Raquel fully buttoned as a standalone top, pairing it with high-waisted trousers or a midi skirt for a put-together look. Leave a few buttons open over a fitted tank or camisole for a layered, relaxed feel. The slate blue color pairs naturally with white, cream, navy, and warm neutrals, giving you plenty of outfit options. The ribbed hem sits neatly at the hip, making it flattering tucked in or left out.
Materials & Care
The Raquel is constructed from a lightweight knit fabric with visible texture and a soft drape, as seen in the product image. Ribbed detailing at the neckline, cuffs, and hem adds structure and a polished finish. Because specific fiber content was not provided, we recommend checking the garment's care label before washing. When in doubt, hand wash in cool water or use a gentle machine cycle, and lay flat to dry to preserve the knit's shape and the puff sleeve structure.
Why You'll Love It
The puff sleeve detail gives the Raquel a feminine, fashion-forward silhouette without sacrificing comfort, and the relaxed, slightly boxy fit is flattering across a range of body types. The full button-front closure means you can customize your look — wear it open like a jacket or closed as a complete top. Ribbed trim at every edge keeps the cardigan looking neat and well-constructed wear after wear. Available in slate blue, the Raquel is a versatile knit piece every woman deserves in her closet.

Will the puff sleeve shape hold up after washing?
To preserve the gathered puff sleeve structure, we recommend checking the care label on the garment. As a general best practice for knit cardigans, hand washing in cool water and laying flat to dry will help maintain the sleeve shape and overall fit.

Does the knit fabric have stretch?
The Raquel is made from a knit construction, which typically offers some natural give. The ribbed trim at the neckline, cuffs, and hem provides additional flexibility for a comfortable fit.
