2000s | Memo | Grey Marl Ribbed Button Cardigan - 8

Description:

Item: V-neck button-through cardigan in black and white marl, giving an overall grey flecked appearance. Wide rib knit construction throughout. Five-button fastening with neutral tone buttons. Relaxed, slightly boxy cut with a straight hem and wide cuffs.

Era: 2000s

Brand: Memo

Condition: Very good vintage condition, with light wear consistent with age and use.

Provenance Note: The marl rib cardigan is one of those wardrobe staples that sits quietly and works with everything, and this example has the texture and weight to make it genuinely satisfying to wear rather than just functional. The black and white twist gives more depth than a flat grey would, and the wide rib adds structure without stiffness. Memo produced solid, unpretentious pieces for the everyday market, and this is a good example of that.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, sweaters, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, bulk.or layering.
