Ivy Organic Cotton Jumper – Textured Envelope Neck Knit

The organic cotton jumper with real presence, Ivy brings a sculptural easy shape together with a beautifully tactile horizontal knit. Made from 100% organic cotton, it has a softly structured handle, an open envelope neckline and grown-on sleeves that give the whole piece a relaxed, contemporary line.

Ivy is designed for comfort without losing shape. The wide neckline sits cleanly across the shoulders, while the generous body falls with a soft swing rather than clinging. Side vents add movement at the hem, and the shorter sleeve length keeps the heavier cotton knit feeling fresh, modern and easy to wear.

Knitted in a substantial 4 gauge / 10 ply organic cotton, Ivy has visible texture and natural weight. It is the kind of jumper that can anchor simple outfits beautifully, bringing colour, craft and comfort into everyday dressing.

Why Reese Is Such An Easy Organic Cotton Jumper

  • Ivy has a generous, easy body that drapes away from the frame without feeling shapeless.
  • The envelope neckline gives the jumper a clean, open upper line.
  • Grown-on sleeves soften the shoulder and create a relaxed sculptural silhouette.
  • The horizontal textured knit gives the surface depth and a beautifully tactile handle.
  • Side vents prevent the heavier cotton from sitting heavily at the hip.

Ivy is defined by its envelope neckline, which sits wide and soft rather than close to the neck. This open line balances the generous body and gives the jumper an elegant, modern ease. The grown-on sleeves flow directly from the shoulder, creating a smooth curve through the upper arm and a natural drape through the sides.

With a 63cm chest measurement and a 60cm body length, Ivy is cut to feel relaxed and airy on the body. The 48cm sleeve length works with the grown-on construction, giving the sleeve a gentle bracelet-to-three-quarter feel rather than a traditional long fitted sleeve. Side vents open the hem so the jumper can move easily over trousers, denim or linen.

The 4 gauge / 10 ply organic cotton gives Ivy its distinctive weight and texture. The horizontal knit has a raised, tactile surface that feels more substantial than a fine cotton sweater, while the pure organic cotton keeps it breathable and comfortable against the skin.

Let Ivy be the focal point of simple outfits. Wear it with pale denim for a clean everyday look, wide-leg trousers for a more architectural shape, or a straight skirt when you want the open neckline and textured surface to feel more polished. The side vents make it easy to layer without adding bulk at the hem.

Machine wash Ivy gently according to the care label and reshape it while damp, smoothing the envelope neckline, sleeve edges and side vents back into place. Dry flat where possible so the heavier organic cotton knit keeps its shape. Store folded rather than hanging to protect the shoulder line and textured surface.

Why does Ivy feel more substantial than some cotton jumpers?

Ivy is knitted in 4 gauge / 10 ply organic cotton, giving it a heavier, more textured handle with visible horizontal structure.

What is an envelope neckline?

An envelope neckline is an open, softly folded neckline that creates a wide boat-like shape across the upper body.

Are the sleeves full length?

No. Ivy has grown-on sleeves with a 48cm measurement, so they sit shorter and more relaxed than a classic full-length sleeve.

Does Ivy have side vents?

Yes. The side vents open the hem slightly, helping the jumper move well and sit comfortably over different waistlines.

Is Ivy suitable for layering?

Yes. The relaxed shape can sit over a fine base layer, although the envelope neckline also looks clean worn simply on its own.

How should I care for the heavier cotton knit?

Wash gently, reshape while damp and dry flat where possible. Folding is better than hanging, as it helps the heavier knit keep its form.
