The Crew Neck Cardigan

17 Sep 2015

We bet every women has owned a crew cardigan at some point. There are trends that come round in big circles, and some styles that just never seem to go out of fashion. 

Crew neck, round neck, high button or twin set – this classic shaped cardigan has seen us through many eras. Pearl buttons or small round ones that match, with or without a collar, long or short sleeve, the shape is the same with super soft wool and a timeless shape that can be worn over practically anything.

From the iconic Audrey Hepburn who wore hers with a classic white round collar shirt and pencil skirt or buttoned up to the top with pencil trousers and pumps. This is ‘fabulous Audrey’ with a striped neck scarf, sleeves rolled up and nipped in at the waist.

The ladies of Mad Men also showed off a few crew neck cardigans. Betty Draper‘s were often embellished to make them extra feminine, where as Peggy kept hers simple for the office with a lace shirt and knee length wide skirt. Even Betty’s daughter Sally inherited her love of the crew neck shape.

We’ll tell you who does LOVE a crew neck cardigan, Helen Mirren! She very elegantly teams many of her dresses with a crew neck on the red carpet, allowing herself to cover her arms and complimenting the frock.
