Agnès has imagined a new version of her absolute classic. She explains.

Agnès explains the genesis of this new version of the cardigan pression. “I wanted it to evolve and renew itself. The cardigan has already gone through a number of variations, notably in leather. For this one, I designed a model with a bias on the shoulder, more fitted. The original cardigan's shape is square, from men's to women's to children's, it's like a box. So the new cardigan has kept the vertical snap line, but it has the contrasting line that creates a kind of deep décolleté and emphasizes the bending. There are 3 snaps at the bottom of the sleeves. It's a bit like an antique vest, with a different silhouette, and works well with long skirts. The back is very pretty, too. I like it!”
