To wear this cardigan, simply put it on over your top. You can adjust the self - tie belt at the waist to your preferred tightness for a flattering fit. For an easy and stylish look, team it up with the matching pants and a tote. When it comes to care, it's best to follow the washing instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash or hand wash in cold water is a good idea. Avoid using harsh detergents. After washing, reshape it and let it dry flat. This will help keep the pleats and the shape of the cardigan intact.
