Leopard Ruffle Patchwork Button Down Cropped Cardigan Women UK
Leopard Ruffle Patchwork Cropped Cardigan Women UK
A cardigan that earns a second look. This Fashionfitz cropped knit pairs a soft stretch body with bold leopard patchwork ruffles along the hem and front — feminine, on-trend and endlessly versatile. Button-down front, round neck, and high-elasticity viscose blend that layers beautifully over everything from bodysuits to blouses.
Why You'll Love It
- Leopard patchwork ruffle detail — contrast frill along the front opening and hem adds bold, feminine personality to a classic cardigan shape
- Soft high-elasticity knit — 52% viscose blend with elastane stretches comfortably and returns to shape; cosy without bulk
- Button-down front — wear fully open as a layer, half-buttoned for a relaxed look, or fully done up as a standalone top
- Cropped length — sits at the natural waist and pairs perfectly with high-waist bottoms
- Round neckline — classic and flattering; works with any neckline underneath
- Autumn-appropriate weight — midweight knit ideal for layering through transitional weather
- UK sizes S–XL (8–22) — designed for UK sizing; high stretch means excellent fit flexibility
Fabric & Care
52% Viscose, 26% Polyester, 22% Polyamide. High elasticity. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle inside out. Lay flat to dry to maintain shape. Do not tumble dry or bleach.
How to Style
The cropped cardigan is one of the most versatile layering pieces in a modern wardrobe — Vogue UK consistently places it at the top of their autumn layering guides, and Who What Wear UK highlights leopard print knitwear as the season's most wearable statement. Three looks:
- Casual autumn — layer over a fitted black vest with high-waist jeans from our Women's Jeans collection and chunky trainers
- Smart layer — wear buttoned over a silk camisole with tailored trousers from our Women's Trousers collection and pointed flats
- Weekend cosy — open over a white bodysuit with wide-leg jeans and ankle boots for an effortless off-duty look
What sizes are available?
UK sizes S–XL (UK 8–22 / US 4–18 / EU 34–48). High elasticity — size as normal or up a size if you prefer to wear it open with generous drape.
Can I wear this as a standalone top?
Yes — buttoned fully, this works as a standalone cropped knit top. The ruffle patchwork detail makes it interesting enough to wear on its own with high-waist trousers or a skirt.
How do I care for this cardigan?
Machine wash cold on a gentle/delicate cycle inside out. Always lay flat to dry — hanging a knit can cause it to stretch out of shape over time. Do not tumble dry. Iron on low heat if needed, avoiding the ruffle sections directly.
Is this suitable for autumn and winter?
The viscose blend makes this a spring-to-autumn piece rather than a heavy winter layer. It works best as a transitional-weather layering piece or under a coat on colder days.
