With its bright color, this women's cardigan sets exciting accents in the dull season. The striking melange effect and the natural-colored rows of cross stitches further enhance the lively look. The airy knit is made largely from alpaca hair, which is not only particularly warming but also incredibly soft. The precious fiber is not itchy, feels light as a feather on the skin and its temperature-regulating properties ensure that the zip-less cardigan is comfortable to wear even when temperatures rise. Lanius combines the fiber with a small amount of recycled polyamide, which makes the knitted fabric more durable and dimensionally stable. The fit is casual and correspondingly comfortable. Rib-knit cuffs form the finish on the sleeves and body.

The work of fashion label Lanius is influenced by three factors: first, a style characterised by sophisticated designs and forms, secondly the use of certified raw materials and thirdly the guarantee that all garments have been produced under fair working conditions. Depending on the garment, one factor may get centre stage, but the other factors don’t move out of the focus – however, importance is always attached to outstanding quality both in terms of materials and finish. The label was founded in 1999 by Claudia Lanius, who works on all her ideas and designs in her Cologne studio; she has them developed by her team and then assembled by producers in several countries.
