Product Insights & Style Tips
Max Mara Balzac Open Front Wool & Cashmere Cardigan opens with stripes of open stitches that give texture without weight. The 70/30 wool and cashmere blend feels plush and softly cooling, knitting a longline silhouette that drapes with refined ease. It reads as a quiet statement piece, luxury knitwear that feels at once cozy and polished, easy to elevate everyday outfits with minimal effort. Care is straightforward: dry clean or hand wash and lay flat to dry.
Drop-shoulder sleeves and a relaxed, elongated frame layer smoothly over everything from knit turtlenecks to slip dresses. Front patch pockets add a practical touch for small essentials, while ribbed cuffs and hem keep the line clean and anchored. A removable waist tie lets you switch from a loose, robe-like drift to a defined silhouette, and the open front invites scarves or belts to personalize the look. It elongates the torso and transitions from office to off-duty with subtle, confident ease.
True to Max Mara's codes, this Balzac cardigan blends texture, tailoring and timeless color with modern ease. The airy knit pairs with neutrals or rich tones and sits well over tailored trousers, midi skirts, or weekend denim, anchoring ensembles with a feeling of quiet confidence.
