Soft vintage feeling
Delicately embroidered birds and contrast trims give Vera a distinctive retro look full of beautiful details.




Vera by Palava is a lightweight cardigan with beautiful embroidery and a feminine retro feel. Decorative birds give it a cute look, while contrast trims at the neckline and cuffs highlight the delicate details.
Knitted from 100% organic cotton, Vera is the lightest style in Palava’s autumn knitwear collection. The soft knit features long sleeves, a round neckline and a button front, allowing you to wear it open over a dress or buttoned up as part of your outfit.
The cropped length pairs beautifully with dresses and high-waisted trousers, drawing attention to the waist. Style Vera with a pencil skirt for an elegant retro look, or layer it over your favourite dress for everyday outings, work and dinner.

Mondo Kaos guide
Delicately embroidered birds and contrast trims give Vera a distinctive retro look full of beautiful details.
The cropped length highlights the waist, while the lightweight organic cotton knit feels soft and comfortable.
Layer it over a vintage dress, or pair it with high-waisted trousers for work and a pencil skirt for dinner.
Use knitwear and cardigans as the soft layer over dresses, blouses, jeans or skirts. It adds both warmth and vintage feeling.
Our vintage-inspired cardigans feature feminine fits and classic details, making them easy to pair with dresses, skirts and high-waisted trousers. The styles are primarily inspired by 1940s and 1950s fashion, when short, fitted cardigans, delicate knit patterns, embroidery and feminine sleeves were characteristic of the era.
We always recommend checking the bust, waist and length measurements of each individual style rather than simply choosing your usual size. Some vintage cardigans have a close, fitted silhouette, while others are designed with a looser cut. The fabric composition also affects how much the cardigan stretches. Choose the retro cardigan that suits your desired look—from a simple everyday cardigan to a short, feminine style worn over a dress or a classic look inspired by the 1940s and 1950s.
Most of our cardigans from brands such as Emmy Design and Weekend Doll are cut at the waist, so they look best with high-waisted trousers and skirts or worn over dresses.
Cardigans from Emmy Design are primarily made from merino wool and should therefore preferably be hand-washed or simply aired, as wool is self-cleaning. If you want a cardigan that can be machine-washed, choose one made from cotton, such as those from Palava.
A cardigan can be a lovely alternative to a jacket worn over a dress when it is fitted and cut at the waist.
Wear your cardigan as a top by buttoning it all the way up to the neck, or wear it open over a top or dress. This gives you a versatile garment that can be styled in several different ways.
