Xanthe | Stand Collar Button Cardigan
Soft Knit Button Cardigan with Ribbed Stand Collar
Meet Xanthe, a button cardigan made for the colder months, in a soft brushed knit with a gentle haze across the surface. Its neat ribbed stand collar frames the neckline, and a row of mottled brown buttons runs down the front. This is a knit cardigan that takes you from office days to slow weekends, and works just as well buttoned to the top as worn open over a shirt.
Product Details
- Texture: Soft, lightly brushed knit with a fuzzy surface and a warm, cosy drape.
- Neckline: Ribbed stand collar that sits close to the neck and can be worn buttoned up or folded open.
- Closure: Button front cardigan with mottled brown buttons from collar to hem.
- Sleeves: Long sleeves with dropped shoulders and deep ribbed cuffs that can be pushed up.
- Cut/Fit: Relaxed, easy shape that layers comfortably over blouses and fine tops.
- Length: Hip length, finished with a ribbed hem.
- Style: A classic womens cardigan in caramel, cream, beige, blue and black; the caramel shade suits anyone after a brown cardigan for autumn.
Styling Tips
- Button it up and tuck it loosely into cream wide-leg trousers with a dark belt for a polished office look.
- Wear it open over a crisp white shirt with straight-leg jeans and loafers for relaxed weekends.
- Pair the caramel shade with dark denim, knee-high boots and a chunky knit scarf on chilly days out.
Care
Gentle cold hand wash or a delicate machine cycle, then reshape and dry flat. Avoid wringing and tumble drying, and always check the care label.
Size & Fit
Xanthe has a relaxed fit with dropped shoulders, so it sits comfortably without clinging. Choose your usual size for the look shown; if you plan to layer it over thicker knits or prefer a slouchier shape, size up.

Good to know
- Colour: colours can look slightly different depending on lighting and your screen settings.
- Measurements: sizes are measured by hand, so small differences of 1–3 cm are possible.
- Creases from shipping: light creases from packaging fall out after a day on a hanger or with a little steam.
