The Little Black Cardigan
Just like the little black dress, The Little Black Cardigan is
perfect for all occasions, and can be dressed up or down. The Little
Black Cardigan is a simple and elegant top down cardigan with raglan
shoulder shaping, with both bust and waist shaping to flatter the curvy
woman. I was inspired to create this cardigan after reading Amy
Herzog’s Fit to Flatter series.
