Product Insights & Style Tips

Wonderland embroidered knitted cardigan from BODE feels like stepping into a living storybook. Knitted with a cotton-rich mix, it carries a soft, substantial hand in a bold pink and red palette. Twin-heart embroidery sits at the chest, a signature detail that nods to Moose Charlap’s score for the 1966 Alice Through the Looking Glass. Priced at $490.

Front button closures keep the line tidy, while the lightweight knit drapes easily over a tee or dress. The fit runs true to size with a slightly loose feel, so it layers nicely over a cami, a turtleneck, or a denim jacket for day-to-night transitions.

Within BODE’s knitwear, the Wonderland cardigan embodies the brand’s storytelling, embroidery-forward approach, pairing vintage craft with a modern palette. Team it with high-rise trousers or a slip dress for city-ready edge.

Aesthetics: 9/10

Bold, story driven aesthetic elevates a quiet knit into a gallery piece. The Wonderland embroidery injects whimsy with meticulous stitch work and playful motifs against a warm, neutral knit. The silhouette reads relaxed yet considered, with a classic cardigan frame that invites layering. It exudes editorial charm and fearless texture for statements.

Craftsmanship: 8/10

Embroidered motifs are neatly executed, with dense stitching that sits flush against the knit and durable edge finishing along the placket. The yarn appears soft, the gauge even, and the ribbing at cuffs and hem feels sturdy. Overall, it reads artisanal rather than mass produced, with visible care in construction.

Affordability: $$$$

At this price point the piece sits in the premium tier, yet the value feels justified by craft, embroidery density, and the collectible vibe BODE brings to knitwear. It promises longevity through timeless motifs and a unique mood, making the cost align with its design intensity and editorial potential.
