Cardigans

Sustainable Fairtrade cardigans for women
A cardigan is a timeless piece of clothing that can be worn in any season. It is characterized by its versatility and comfort. In the cold season, the cotton keeps the wearer pleasantly warm, while on warm summer evenings a light cardigan is a fantastic accessory to take with you. A classic cardigan usually has a button placket on the front, long sleeves and often pockets. Discover sustainable cardigans and sweaters from MELA made from high-quality materials and fair trade!

What is sustainable knitwear?
Fair fashion, or sustainable fashion, refers to products made from ethically and ecologically responsible materials. No harmful chemicals or pesticides are used in the cultivation of organic cotton, which leads to a healthier environment and better working conditions for the growers. Buying sustainable clothing not only supports the environment, but also people who work in the fashion industry. For this reason, MELA only uses 100% organic cotton from fair trade. The high-quality materials of our knitwear guarantee a comfortable feel, as well as a clear conscience.

The different MELA cardigans and their combination possibilities
Cardigans are great pieces of clothing that you can wear with many outfits. They are versatile, comfortable and easy to dress up or down depending on the occasion. Our sustainable cardigans also come in a wide range of models in different colors and designs.

Long and short cardigans
A long, fine-knit cardigan is a great addition to a dress or blouse to create an elegant look. A short, figure-hugging cardigan, on the other hand, is perfect for a casual, leisure look. Combine both models with jeans and a T-shirt and you'll have a sporty, leisure outfit for everyday life.

Oversized cardigans
The oversized cardigan is totally on trend and gives every look a relaxed and fashionable touch. With long sleeves and patch pockets, it exudes casualness and is also incredibly practical: whether draped over the shoulders as an additional, cozy layer on a cool evening or as a fashion statement over your favorite outfit - an oversized cardigan is the perfect way to stay warm and look stylish at the same time.

Materials for sustainable knitwear
Organic cotton is made from plants that are grown without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. This makes it an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cotton. The use of pure organic cotton in the production of cardigans has many advantages: Firstly, it is softer and more comfortable to wear than conventional cotton. Secondly, it is hypoallergenic and therefore also suitable for people with sensitive skin. In addition, organic cotton is more durable and long-lasting, which leads to a longer lifespan of the cardigan. By purchasing high-quality cardigans made from 100% organic cotton and sustainable material, you too are making a contribution to sustainability and at the same time supporting the quality and longevity of your wardrobe.
