Partially tucked over jeans, as shown in the product image
As shown in the product image, this boxy, lightweight fine-knit sweater can be styled with the front hem partially tucked into the waistband of jeans for a soft blousing effect. The black crew-neck style also features slightly sheer side panels in the photo, though this reflects the image styling rather than guaranteed product details.[2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Boxy Shimmering Fine-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you prefer a boxy fit sweater with a contemporary design and subtle metallic sheen, crafted from a blend of reprocessed viscose and 3% metallic fibres. This fine-knit piece features a crew neck and loose sleeves, though its slightly sheer quality can be apparent across the side panels.[1,2,3] | Metallic-Accent Openwork Sweater: Choose this if you want a loose, openwork knit with metallic threads and a polished boho-chic look — reviewers say the soft, non-itchy fabric and colors (especially lilac) earn compliments, and one found the relaxed, non-cropped cut ideal. Note that the fit runs oversized and boxy with a short-waisted body, and reviewers widely report sleeves at least four inches too long that can't be pushed up, so alterations may be needed — and taller wearers (5 feet 7 inches and up) found the proportions hard to wear.[4] | Ultra-Fine Knit Sweater: Choose this for an ultra-fine, flowy knit made of reprocessed pure viscose, which is ideal for dressing up for business-casual settings or for casual everyday comfort. The piece features a relaxed fit and versatile drape, but its thin construction offers little opacity and requires an undershirt for modesty. Be mindful that this delicate fabric is prone to snags and shrinkage during washing, requiring careful handling.[5,6] |
