Bellerose | Oversized Stripe Sweater - Ecru & Bottle Green

An oversized crewneck sweater that trades on proportion and quiet precision, the Bellerose Anglet61 K1356s Stripe-A is a study in deliberate volume. Cut to deliver a voluminous silhouette, it is intentionally large—a generous cocoon of ecru cotton knit, traced with fine bottle green stripes. The 3/4 raglan sleeves reinforce the ease, softening the shoulder line and allowing the fabric to fall in a continuous, unbroken drape. This is not a garment that demands attention; it earns it through the subtle tension between its relaxed shape and the meticulous construction that holds it in place. The hand is soft and forgiving, a fine-gauge knit that feels substantial without weight. The cotton-polyester blend (72% cotton, 28% polyester) yields a surface that is smooth to the touch, with just enough body to maintain the sweater’s architectural shape. Double-rib trims at the cuffs, hem, and crewneck collar anchor the volume, preventing the oversized cut from reading as sloppy. A contrast mustard detail at the collar and hem introduces a quiet jolt of color—a Bellerose signature that lifts the ecru-and-bottle-green palette from classic to considered. Construction is fully fashioned, meaning the pieces are knit to shape rather than cut from a bolt, resulting in clean seams that lie flat against the body. The double-rib crewneck sits neatly at the collarbone, while the 3/4 sleeves create a natural break that is both practical and elegant. The overall fit is intentionally large; choose your usual size for the intended voluminous look, or size down for a more fitted, cropped effect. The raglan sleeve construction ensures unrestricted movement, making this as comfortable for a long train journey as it is for a slow Sunday morning. This is a transitional piece, equally at home in the final weeks of winter or the first cool days of spring. Style it with wide-leg denim and leather loafers for a studied casualness, or layer it over a white poplin collar for a more refined take. The stripe pattern reads as graphic but not loud, making it a natural partner for solids—think ecru trousers, navy wool, or charcoal cashmere. It is a sweater that asks to be worn, not merely owned, and its charm lies in the way it settles into your wardrobe without fanfare, becoming the piece you reach for again and again.
