Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Rib-Knit Cardigan: Choose this if you want an understated Missoni design that steps away from the brand's iconic zigzags: a black-and-brown rib-knit cardigan in a dense wool-viscose blend (56% wool, 44% viscose), pitched by the retailer as an extra layer for cool days. It offers a regular, relaxed slightly boxy fit with drop shoulders, a V-neck, tone-on-tone buttons, patch pockets, ribbed trim, and a marled dark brown yarn with lighter flecks. It comes in sizes SMALL through X-LARGE in Brown, and the knit texture is loosely ribbed with visible yarn slubs, which some may read as a more casual, rustic look.[1,2,3,4] | Openwork Lurex Zigzag Sweater: Choose this if you want a Missoni statement knit featuring the house's iconic zigzag motif in metallic lurex threads with iridescent hues, rendered in an openwork vertical zigzag pattern. The relaxed, slightly boxy crewneck has dropped shoulders, ribbed neckline, cuffs and hem, and is made in Italy from a 61% viscose, 30% wool and 9% polyester knit, offered in navy in sizes small, medium and large. Note that the openwork knit creates a semi-sheer, see-through surface where skin or underlying clothing can show through, so layering matters.[5,6,7,8] | Zigzag Cotton Knit Sweatshirt: Choose this if you want a Missoni designer crewneck in navy with the brand's signature tonal zigzag look, worked here in a raschel knit that highlights the chevron texture down the body and sleeves. It is a fine, unlined cotton and viscose stretch knit (75% cotton, 25% viscose) with a regular fit, ribbed crew neckline, cuffs and hem, and a small V-stitch detail at the front neck. It comes in sizes SMALL through X-LARGE, and note that as an unlined, fine-knit piece its feel may be lighter than a standard sweatshirt.[9,10,11] |
