To wear the Ellis cardigan, simply unbutton it and slip it over your upper body. You can wear it open over a top or button it up for a more snug look. It's great for both casual outings and semi - formal events. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to hand - wash this cardigan in cold water to keep the fabric soft and the color vibrant. Don't wring it out; instead, gently press out the excess water. Lay it flat to dry to prevent any stretching. Avoid using bleach as it can damage the fabric. And remember, since it's a final sale item, there are no returns or exchanges.
