Key Design Elements

• Iconic Multi-Way "Banana" Cut: The defining characteristic of this piece is its elongated, asymmetric pattern work. It is designed with incredible kinetic flexibility—it can be left fully extended to drape dramatically below the waist for an avant-garde look, or pulled and bunched up around the torso to serve as a high-end baseline sweater.

• Premium Pure Wool Fabric: Knit from top-tier wool that feels incredibly soft and comfortable against the skin, avoiding the harsh scratchiness often associated with heavy wools while maintaining excellent thermal insulation.

• The Ultimate Layering Anchor: This piece is specifically engineered to anchor complex outfits. It slots seamlessly underneath oversized down puffers, heavy winter shearling jackets, or extreme power-shoulder tailored coats, ensuring your proportions look flawlessly intentional.

• Signature Darkwear Silhouette: Features elongated sleeves and a masterfully engineered drape that creates gorgeous stacked textures along the arms and body, instantly elevating it far beyond a standard base layer.

Sizing & Fit Profile

• Tagged Size: S (Small).

• Fit Note: Thanks to the natural stretch of the premium wool knit, this piece offers a highly adaptive, body-hugging yet comfortable fit. It is meticulously patterned to cling where it needs to while leaving enough give to layer over tanks or sit comfortably under heavy outerwear.
