Ivory Wool Sweater with Back Buttons
Description
An ivory V-neck sweater in pure wool with a row of buttons running down the back. It is the kind of detail that only registers when you turn around — and it means the sweater works two ways, since the placket sits perfectly well at the front if you prefer it there.
Fabric & feel
100% wool, made in Italy by Tensione In. Undiluted wool at this weight does two things a blend will not: it holds its shape at the shoulder through repeated wear, and it insulates without bulk, so a fine knit like this is warmer than it looks. Smooth surface, no halo. Read more on how the fibre behaves in our Italian fabric guide.
Fit & sizing
Relaxed through the body with a soft dropped shoulder and long sleeves. The V at the front sits shallow; the buttoned placket runs the full length of the back. Because the shape is loose, it sits comfortably across a range of sizes — take your true measurement rather than sizing up. Italian sizing converts through the fit and sizing guide.
How to wear it
Photographed over a plaid skirt, which is the version that shows the buttons off — a printed bottom and a plain ivory top. It also works with straight denim, or over tailored trousers with the buttons at the front for a cleaner look. Ivory wool wants a dark bottom half in winter and takes cream on cream in early autumn. See our guide to washing a wool sweater, and the rest of the knitwear.
Care
Hand wash, cold, with a wool-safe detergent — the label is specific, and pure wool felts irreversibly in a machine. Never wring. Roll in a towel to press the water out, then dry flat and reshape while damp. Store folded with cedar rather than on a hanger; wool stretches at the shoulders under its own weight.
