Biches & Bûches no. 87

€145,83 EUR

We are delighted to present the Biches & Bûches no. 87 sweater, designed by Astrid at the Atelier with Le Petit Lambswool and Le Petit Silk & Mohair 🐚

Its defining feature is the sleeve: deeply dropped and generously wide, it tapers into a close ribbed cuff — creating a shape that is at once voluminous and grounded. The cropped, boxy body and ribbed hem keep the silhouette balanced.

The textured stitch pattern adds depth and movement to the fabric, catching the light in a way that changes as you wear it. The Contrast Color at the neck, cuffs, and hem ties the piece together with a simple, considered touch.
