Delicate, romantic and beautifully feminine, this fine bolero is knit from soft brushed alpaca yarn in an open, lace-like stitch that catches the light like a whisper of fabric.
The crossover front closes with a single pearl button at the bust, framing a deep V neckline, while the long, fitted sleeves and cropped, waist-length fit keep the silhouette light and elegant. Sheer and airy, it layers beautifully over a dress without ever feeling heavy.
Worn over a silk slip for the wedding day, over a satin gown for a black-tie evening, or thrown over your shoulders for a garden party, this piece brings quiet, old-world romance to any occasion.

Size Guide
How to measure
- Shoulder width — across the back, from the edge of one shoulder straight across to the edge of the other. Keep the tape level.
- Upper arm — around the widest part of your arm, usually around the bicep. Snug, but not tight.
- Bust — around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level across your back. Do not pull it tight.
- Waist — around the narrowest part of your waist, usually just above the belly button.
These are body measurements, not garment measurements. If you fall between two sizes, choose the larger for a more comfortable fit.
Everything is made to order, so if you would like something adjusted to your measurements, just send me a message before ordering.
Garment Care
- Hand wash in cool water with a gentle detergent, or use a wool cycle at 30°C.
- Do not wring or twist. Press the water out gently, then roll in a towel.
- Dry flat, away from direct heat and sunlight, reshaping while damp.
- Do not tumble dry and do not bleach.
- If needed, press on a low setting with steam, holding the iron just above the surface — never resting it on the knit.
- Mohair and alpaca settle in storage. A gentle shake will bring the halo back.
Hand knitted from natural fibres, so a little gentleness goes a long way — treated well, these pieces last for years.
