Women's Sweatshirts

Women's sweatshirts at Eleven Loves are built around one shape done properly. The Perfect Crew Neck is cut in soft Greek cotton with a neckline set at just the right level to layer over a T Shirt, a medium depth rib at the cuff and hem, and a body length made for an easy French tuck without bulk.

The fabric is what makes it. The Perfect Crew Neck is 95 percent Greek FiberMax cotton with 5 percent elastane, grown, ginned and spun under the Certified Sustainable FiberMax protocol within 250 kilometres of our factory, fully traceable and Non-GMO. It is soft to the hand from the first wear and holds its shape rather than bagging out through the day. You can read the full story of our Greek cotton if you want the detail.

On fit, the Perfect Crew Neck is relaxed and cut a little more generously than our other sweatshirts, with a longer body. It is true to size for that relaxed fit, so if you prefer something neater we recommend sizing down. It suits anyone who wants the comfort of a sweatshirt without the slouch, and the longer line works particularly well over a barrel leg or a wide leg.

For styling, the easiest route is the matching Side Stripe Joggers for a co-ord that looks deliberate rather than off duty. Otherwise tuck the front into barrel leg trousers and add a loafer, or layer a T Shirt underneath so there is a flash of a second colour at the neck. A blazer over the top takes the whole thing somewhere smarter.

Beyond the crew neck there are two other routes. The Robyn Modal Open Neck Sweatshirt is the dressed up version, cut in a velvety modal blend with a collar, a neat v neck and a sleeve just above the elbow. For something with more personality, the French slogan styles carry a little wit without shouting about it.

Care is simple. Wash at 30 degrees, do not tumble dry, and use a cool iron. Washing cool and drying flat is what keeps the rib at the cuff and hem from losing its spring.
