Philomena sweater

The Philomena sweater exudes effortless elegance with a vintage touch. Its textured stitch pattern creates a bold, structured look, highlighted by a striking cable that flows from the saddle shoulder down the sleeve. The central panel showcases this cable alongside a series of finer, intricate ones, adding depth and refinement. Designed with a cropped silhouette, round neckline with a subtle decorative line, and a relaxed fit, the Philomena balances sophistication with modern ease.
