Product Insights
The Icône Golden Buttons Short-Sleeve Cropped Cardigan in Mossy Green uses EU Ecolabel-certified LENZING ECOVERO viscose blended with polyester and nylon to deliver breathability, static resistance, and machine-washable shape retention, sacrificing natural fiber purity for durability and easy care; its fully functional golden buttons are plastic with a metallic finish.
Verified claims
- Ecolabel certification
- LENZING ECOVERO viscose is EU Ecolabel-certified for lower CO2 and water impact.
- Material composition

Deep Research
How the ECOVERO blend feels and wears
- Viscose fibers typically have a moisture regain of around 13%, compared to polyester's near-zero absorbency; the 50% viscose content pulls moisture away from the skin more actively than a full synthetic, keeping the thick knit breathable and comfortable even as temperatures rise.
- Because viscose is a cellulosic fiber, the 50% content notably reduces static electricity build-up compared to a fully polyester or acrylic knit, meaning the cardigan resists clinging, crackling, and lint attraction — a subtle but real advance in how the fabric feels through a day.
- LENZING ECOVERO viscose is the only viscose fiber certified with the EU Ecolabel, meeting strict benchmarks for lower CO2 emissions, water impact, and chemical use across its full lifecycle — so the $59 price tag carries a third-party verified sustainability claim that normally adds cost to a garment.
- Pure viscose can lose up to 50% of its tensile strength when wet, but the reinforcing polyester and nylon in this blend enable the cardigan to withstand a gentle machine wash without the fragile, hand-wash-only handling a 100% viscose knit demands.
- The 22% nylon delivers stretch through the knit structure itself rather than relying on an elastane filament, so the cropped cardigan snaps back to its fitted shape after wear and washing without the gradual loss of recovery that plagues spandex-blend garments over time.

Q&A
3 answered- Are the golden buttons metal or plastic? And are they functional or decorative?
- The golden buttons on this cardigan are likely plastic with a metallic gold finish, as is typical for this price point. They are functional—the cardigan can be buttoned up using them.
- Does the knit material stretch out over time, or does it hold its shape well?
- This cardigan is made from a blend of 50% LENZING ECOVERO viscose, 28% polyester, and 22% nylon, which is a sturdy combination that typically holds its shape well over time. The polyester and nylon add resilience, so it shouldn't stretch out significantly with normal wear, but proper care (like laying flat to dry) will help maintain its fit.
- Can you describe the shade of Mossy Green? Is it more olive or forest green?
- The Mossy Green shade is an olive-toned green with subtle earthy undertones, leaning more toward a muted olive than a deep forest green.
