The Foundations Cardigan in Oatmeal by Marle is a timeless wardrobe staple designed for effortless layering and everyday wear. Crafted from a soft merino–cotton blend, this cardigan balances natural warmth with breathable comfort, making it ideal for year-round styling.
Cut with a close, streamlined fit, the Foundations Cardigan sits neatly against the body for a polished silhouette that works beautifully both on its own or layered under coats and jackets. The long sleeves and wide ribbed hem create subtle structure, while the ribbed collar frames the neckline with a clean, refined finish.
Delicate ivory shell buttons run down the centre front, adding a touch of understated elegance and allowing versatile styling — wear it fully buttoned as a knit top, or open over a camisole or dress for an easy layered look. The soft oatmeal tone makes it endlessly wearable, pairing effortlessly with denim, tailored trousers, or neutral layering pieces.
Minimal yet sophisticated, the Foundations Cardigan lives up to its name - a beautifully made knit designed to form the base of a thoughtful, versatile wardrobe.
