About the material
Nylon is the core yarn, and cotton brushed bouclé (a knitted fabric with a yarn loop on the surface) is wrapped around, covering the nylon. The soft and fluffy texture feels great on your skin, and we recommend it for those who have problems with the tingling sensation of wool. Also, this cotton knit cardigan can be easily cared for, and you can wear it every day. It is a seasonless piece, and even though it contains cotton, you can use it during the winter season. That is because the fuzzy finishing makes it warm.

About the design
The shawl-collar three-button cardigan gently wraps around the back of the neck.
It is a whole garment and so, a non-sewn knit. It means that there are no shoulders or side seams. Therefore, thanks to this knitting technique, the garment has no tension, and it is very comfortable to wear. Also, a small percentage (5%) of polyurethane added to the yarn prevents it from losing its shape and provides a fit.

About the colour
The mood recalls the warmth of a cocoon. Light brown with an intense yellow tinge, it is a colour that makes you feel all the warmth of the knit.

Easy-care material. Machine washable.
This item can be hand-washed at home. We suggest laying it flat to dry.

The collar has a beautiful V-line, so you can enjoy coordination by layering high-necked inners and looking into colours and patterns. Extremely versatile, The Furry Cardigan is suitable for wearing in different combinations.

Good design, quality, timeless, seasonless, easy-care. Style made to last.
Buy less, buy better!

The Asymmetric Sweater by Plantation 1982

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Expressing functional design and fluid movement


Among the new arrivals, The Asymmetric Sweater by Plantation1982 is a piece that perfectly completes your Fall/Winter capsule wardrobe.

The pullover has a simple design with its back falling to the side, but it shows a unique, edgy silhouette.

As Jan Tschichold said: “Asymmetry is the rhythmic expression of functional design.”
Indeed, it’s interesting to explore asymmetry as a design pattern, its intake to a functional style, and the movement that allows the body. We find fascinating the idea of not being too obvious or somehow predictable while giving the chance to create modern and stylish garments.

Some notes about the material:
It is a worsted yarn sweater. The high gauge knitted yarn avoids pilling easily, and although it is 100% extra-fine wool, it has a soft texture that does not give the peculiar tingling of wool. You have to feel it on your skin.

The design point:
The asymmetrical hem, created from the garment’s elegant drape, is the design element that stands out and makes it unique.
It features a ribbed neckline, cuffs, and hemline. The neckline accompanies the neck gently. Accented by a draped hem, this knit is comfortable to wear because it is compact around the shoulders but wide. Moreover, it does not pick up the body line.

The colour: a bright melange grey, not a solid colour, so it has a soft and gentle impression. Also, extremely versatile.

Some styling options:
You can put together structured coordination when combined with basic bottoms such as stretch pants and denim, the beauty of the silhouette stands out while being cool.
Or, match the sweater with a skirt, and you’ll get an A-line silhouette, giving it an airy and natural look.

It is a knit that gives a plain yet gorgeous impression just by wearing it.
Function and style are beautifully blended.

We don’t wear labels. We wear style!

The material is soft lambswool; made in Japan.
The colour: a blueish green. A unique hue to enhance your wardrobe.

The design point: sophisticated but easy to wear.
It is oversized and has a voluminous feel, but its short length makes it look neat. Also, it features a ribbed round neckline, cuffs and hemline, and ribbed details along the sleeves too. Moreover, two crossing ribs point to the front and back of the garment.
The hemline is asymmetric, meaning that the front side is shorter than the back. Two side slits give extra comfort to the movement of your body.

You will easily coordinate this item with the garments you already have. This sweater, which is a modern arrangement of the basic shape, goes well with any bottom. From elegant outfits to casual styles, you’ll make multiple combinations. Try it over a dress too, or pair it with jeans for a cool everyday style.

Think twice before you buy. More is not the answer, nor is disposable fashion.
Quality over quantity is the way, a value we embrace and want to share with you.

All the pieces included in our Fall/Winter selection are easy to match and offer various styling possibilities. The design may look simple at first glance, but details are never left to chance. Indeed, they are all very well curated – that is the point of good design.

The collar is slightly higher than the bottleneck so that it covers the neck fully, but it does not have a hold feeling like any typical high neck. Its design adds style while leaving the body free to move.

Furthermore, the vertical texture of the fabric makes it difficult to pick up the lines of your body and underwear. As a result, this garment is extra comfortable to wear.

The high-neck sweater is the perfect piece for the seasonal transitions, but it is easy to use as an inner for cardigans or jackets too. So you feel its softness in contact with the skin.

Also, the uneven border pattern expressed by the weaving gives a casual yet elegant impression. And the styling options are many. You can wear it with pants or skirts, depending on the need of the day. It can perfectly blend with casual or sporty outfits as with any more elegant look.

Now a note about the colour.
The base is dark green, an intense dark green, and the stripes are navy. This colour matching offers a soft and refined image.

Washed to give a unique texture, it’s an easy-care item. So, you can wash it by hand at home.

Perhaps you will buy lesser pieces, but you’ll take beautiful clothing that lasts over the years.
And you’ll love wearing them.

Minimal, seasonless and timeless design from Japan


Going ahead with defining a capsule wardrobe, today we introduce: The Striped Tunic Sweater by Plantation1982.

Here, we are going to tell you more about the material and design which, at first, may look simple, yet each detail is deeply curated. Perhaps noticing details is something people are not used to anymore, though we know that some individuals have a special eye.

Made in Japan, this sweater is 100% cotton – with a soft hand. It’s easy to match, and its cosy silhouette adds an elegant touch even to casual outfits.

The ripple structure is swollen, like a tube – replacing the usual rib working.
The boat neck is shallow in the vertical direction and wide in the horizontal. This design makes the neckline look beautiful.

In addition, the vertical texture of the fabric makes it difficult to pick up the lines of your body and underwear. As a result, this garment is very comfortable to wear.

The tunic sweater is ideal transitioning between seasons. But no worries, when the weather gets colder, it is easy to layer over it with a cardigan. Or a tank top or t-shirt underneath. Since the material surface is uneven, it will look great with many outfits.

The length is 168 cm, so it comfortably covers the hip line.

Now the colour: off-white. The base is off-white as a gentle cream. The stripes are mocha brown, giving an overall light and soft impression.

This product is washed to give it a unique texture. And, most importantly, you can wash it by hand at home (easy-care product).

Educating ourselves to be aware of what we buy. Taking more time to evaluate, appreciating details – is a worthy exercise.
The world is full of garbage, we don’t need more of it. Choose wisely!
