Doyenne Tunic
Nothing says luxury like a sumptuous cashmere pullover. Here, a high neck drapes beautifully into a cowl at the collar and extra length in the sleeves allows for rolling or pushing up the cuff for modern styling. Wear it with a generous amount of ease for a tunic-length pullover or knit down a size or two for a more tailored look.
