Background
The shawl collar cardigan gained widespread appeal in the 1950s, partly thanks to its adoption by style icons like Steve McQueen and Cary Grant, who wore it on and off-screen. Its combination of comfort and style made it a favourite for layering, whether paired with a casual shirt or a more formal ensemble. Ours is a heavyweight wool sweater with a deep shawl collar, cut to layer under an overcoat or wear on its own.
