Fleur Cardigan with Hood – Cashmere Blend Hooded Cardigan

The cardigan with hood Fleur brings the comfort of a knitted hoodie into a more refined cashmere blend cardigan. Knitted in a 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend, it has an open front with hidden buttons, a soft integrated hood, a clean vertical front band and a drawstring tie at the lower edge.

The boxy body falls easily from dropped shoulders, while the full length sleeves gather softly above deep ribbed cuffs. Fleur feels calm, cosy and quietly modern: easy enough for everyday wear, but polished enough to layer over dresses, shirts, fine tops or simple weekend pieces.

Why Fleur Feels Like an Elevated Hooded Layer

  • The cardigan with hood shape gives Fleur a softer, more relaxed identity than a classic cardigan
  • Hidden buttons keep the front neat while adding practical warmth
  • The integrated hood rolls naturally around the neckline for a cosy finish
  • A knitted front band adds structure through the centre
  • The drawstring hem brings a casual, adjustable detail
  • Dropped shoulders give the body a calm, easy drape
  • Full length sleeves and deep ribbed cuffs create comfort through the arm
  • The cashmere blend knit brings warmth, softness and everyday wearability

Fleur is designed around a gentle hooded silhouette rather than a traditional cardigan neckline. The hood sits softly at the back and rolls naturally around the neck, creating a cosy frame without feeling stiff or heavy. This makes the piece useful on cooler days, when a little extra coverage feels welcome but a coat is not always needed.

The front is finished with a neat knitted band and hidden button opening, so the line stays clean whether it is worn open or closed. At the lower edge, the drawstring tie gives Fleur a subtle casual note and lets the hem feel more adjustable. The result is a hooded cardigan that feels relaxed, wearable and quietly distinctive.

Fleur is knitted from a 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend in a 12 gauge / 2 ply construction. Cashmere gives the yarn a soft, luxurious touch, while lambswool adds warmth, natural resilience and a comfortable everyday handle.

The knit has a smooth surface that keeps the design simple and uncluttered, allowing the hood, front band and drawstring detail to stand out. It is warm without looking bulky, making Fleur a practical luxury knitwear layer for home, travel, casual days and easy cold-weather dressing.

Choose Fleur when you want the comfort of a hoodie with the softer elegance of knitwear. It offers warmth and ease without looking too sporty, making it a versatile alternative to a sweatshirt, jacket or classic button cardigan. The hood, hidden buttons and drawstring hem give it character, while the plain knit body keeps it clean and easy to wear.

Because the design is minimal, Fleur slips naturally into a wardrobe of simple staples. It can be worn loose over a fine top, gently fastened for extra warmth, or kept close at hand as an indoor knit. It is the kind of cardigan with hood that feels useful every week, not just for one specific outfit.

Style Fleur over a slim long-sleeved top, soft T-shirt, simple vest or lightweight roll neck. The hood adds softness around the neckline, while the hidden button opening lets you choose between a more wrapped-up look and an easy open-front shape. For relaxed everyday wear, pair it with denim, wide-leg trousers or jersey separates.

For a cleaner outfit, wear it over a tonal base layer with straight trousers and simple shoes. The drawstring detail can be left loose for movement or gently tied to define the lower edge. Fleur also works well as a travel cardigan because it gives comfort, coverage and a quietly polished finish without needing much styling.

To keep your Fleur cardigan with hood soft, fresh and beautifully shaped, care for it gently:

  • Hand wash cold or dry clean
  • Use a gentle wool or cashmere detergent
  • Do not bleach or tumble dry
  • Reshape carefully while damp
  • Dry flat away from direct heat
  • Fold for storage rather than hanging by the hood
  • Use a cashmere comb lightly if natural pilling appears
