Just like its namesake, the Hepburn sweater is such a classic! The third sweater in the Audrey Hepburn collection, Hepburn offers a choice of neckline and generous ease.

Less formal than Golightly, and lighter weight than Audrey, Hepburn is a basic that could be worn formally or with sweatpants! Dress it up or down to suit your unique style.
