A simple and elegant summer sweater

Add a touch of elegance to your summer wardrobe with Placa, a beautiful sweater with a design that is both simple and refined. Knitted from a blend of linen, silk, and a touch of cotton, this lightweight garment is ideal for staying cool and comfortable during the warmer months.

With its lovely decorative braid detail and carefully thought-out finishes, including short rows at the neckline and cuffs, Placa perfectly embodies a natural, elegant, and timeless style.
