NELLIE Chevron Sweater in Organic Cotton - Off-White

Stand out in our NELLIE sweater! Reminiscent of jersey cotton sweaters from our teenage years, the zigzag knit combined with the drop shoulders, 3/4 sleeves and large banded waist make it 100% grown-up and suitable year-round. Its textured knit brings a unique delicateness and refinement to one's look. A timeless piece of quality to wear, wear again and pass on.

Style note: It has a fairly short, boxy silhouette that can be worn tucked in or over jeans. NELLIE can be worn on bare skin or with a collared shirt underneath for all-season wear.

If you have purchased the NELLIE sweater previously, you may notice that the SS25 versions are lighter to wear. This was achieved thanks to a new cotton yarn that is more suitable for our knitting machines and the look and feel we want for this style. Thanks to this thicker yarn, we can knit more efficiently and achieve the same look with a more comfortable, lighter wear.

Our threads are made from long cotton fibers, which helps prevent pilling. We offer products crafted from exceptionally high-quality materials designed to stand the test of time, but how you care for them is equally important. For more information, please refer to our care guide!

Caring for cotton knits is easy!

• Wash : On the gentle cycle of your washing machine inside a wash bag with soft detergent.
• Dry : Lay flat to dry, away from direct sunlight and do not tumble dry. 
• Care : Remove any wrinkles using steam or a low-heat iron on the reverse, avoiding the seams. 
• Store : Keep your knits folded rather than hung on hangers to avoid stretching them down.

Investing in a sustainable knitwear item from L'Envers provides significant long-term value compared to fast-fashion alternatives. While fast-fashion pieces may be cheaper initially, they often require frequent replacements due to poor quality. L'Envers items, crafted from high-quality, eco-friendly materials like mulesing-free wool and organic cotton, are designed to last for years, thus reducing their cost per wear and their environmental impact.

At L'Envers, we focus on sustainable practices by knitting on demand in a family-run atelier in Spain, ensuring fair wages and avoiding overproduction. Our durable items offer more wears over time than their fast-fashion alternatives. Additionally, the way you care for your clothes plays a big role in their longevity. You can find extensive advice on garment care on our website. While very durable, our pieces are not eternal and their natural materials will eventually show signs of time. We believe this adds a je-ne-sais-quoi and is something to celebrate. Eventually, at the end of their lifespan, L'Envers pieces can be repurposed or recycled, leaving no lasting pollution. This makes our timeless knitwear a cost-efficient and eco-friendly investment. Join us in the slow fashion revolution.

We ship worldwide, and you’ll receive tracking information via email once your order leaves our workshop in Spain. Shipping options for your delivery address will be displayed at checkout.

MADE-TO-ORDER : To avoid overproduction and minimize waste, we knit every item after the order is placed. This means the total lead time includes our production timeframe, specified at the top of the page, plus delivery times (typically 5 to 7 working days, depending on the destination and shipping method chosen at checkout). For more details, browse our FAQs. If you need further assistance, please email us at customer@lenversfashion.com, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

We’re here to help! We understand it’s not always easy to buy clothing online, especially when ordering from a brand for the first time… We also have a customization service if you’d like a different color from the ones the product is shown in or if you need different dimensions such as body or sleeves length. This is the flexibility of knitting on demand!

We'll happily answer your questions, assist you with your shopping experience and guide you through the new pieces.
