As an adult who often takes style inspiration from little kids, I am constantly on the hunt for kids’ clothing that runs big or comes in a wider-than-usual range of sizes. (A bonus: Kids’ clothing is almost always cheaper than the grown-up equivalent.) This 100 percent cotton striped cardigan from J.Crew is a unique take on the pointelle trend, goes up to a size XXL (roughly the same as a women’s size S), and is currently 50 percent off.
I found out about it from New York deputy editor Alexis Swerdloff, who told the Strategist team today that her friend Maggie Yolen recently bought it in XL and says it is “perfect.” With a similar shape to Sezane’s perfect Gaspard Cardigan, the iconic Agnes B. snap cardigan, and Alex Mill’s Taylor Rollneck cardigan that sold out a bunch of times, it’s an incredible deal at just $23.
