When you hear Jacquemus, the first thing that probably comes to mind is their iconic Le Chiquito bag. But did you know there's more to the French fashion label than its miniature arm candies? Enter the Jacquemus La Maille cardigan, a trendy and functional piece worth adding to your collection.
Unlike your typical oversized grandma knits, this cardigan is far from ordinary. While we all love snuggling up in oversized knits on rainy days, tropical country dwellers don't get many opportunities to wear them. But thanks to the La Maille's cropped and curtain-top design, you can rock it even in warmer temperatures. Intrigued? Keep reading.
What Is the Jacquemus La Maille Cardigan?
The Jacquemus La Maille cardigan, directly translated as "the mesh" or "the knit," is a casual yet luxurious garment featuring a delicate "Jacquemus" logo closure in opulent gold hardware. It made its debut during Jacquemus' La Montagne collection for Fall/Winter 2021, and since then, it has been embraced by fashion celebrities like Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Megan Fox—an undeniable testament to its widespread appeal.
The La Maille cardigan is available in vibrant and visually arresting hues in both long-sleeved and short-sleeved variations. Opt for the sleek rib-knit iteration known as La Maille Pralù for a sophisticated and refined look. If you're craving comfort and coziness, indulge in the plush allure of La Maille Neve (Fun fact: "neve" means "snow"). Rest assured, you won't actually need snow to wear it, but imagine the texture—it's simply divine!
This cardigan allows for endless styling possibilities. Feeling bold? Wear it alone as a sexy, ab-baring top. Want a more traditional look? Layer it on top of another piece of clothing for added warmth, comfort, and style. With its versatility and undeniable allure, it's no wonder the La Maille has garnered attention from local celebrities like Rei Germar, Anne Curtis, and Angelique Manto, solidifying its position as the latest fashion must-have. See how they styled their Jacquemus cardigans below:
Local Celebrities Spotted Wearing Jacquemus La Maille Cardigans
1. Rei Germar
Fashion influencer Rei Germar wore her La Maille Neve cardi during her trip to La Union, making it hard proof that this cardi is perfect for the summer weather, too. She used it as a chic cover-up for her bikini top and paired it with a denim plaid skirt for a Y2K twist. Completing her look are white Dioract sandals and some sleek sunnies.
2. Anne Curtis
Actress and style maven Anne Curtis has not one, but two La Maille cardigans. In the first outfit, she took the more traditional route and wore a caramel-colored La Maille Neve over an LBD. On her arm was a Gucci Jackie, while she wore black Chanel combat boots for added edge.
In the second outfit, she went for a daring, peek-a-boo moment. Unafraid to bare some skin and show off her enviable toned abs, she wore the longsleeved La Maille Pralù in a sweet pistachio green hue with a pair of denim jeans.
Another fun fact: She happens to have the exact same cardigan as Jennie Kim from BLACKPINK.
3. Angelique Manto
Angelique Manto, who also happens to be a fan of the curtain-top trend, wore the cropped La Maille Pralu in an all-black ensemble. The beauty queen paired it with black high-waisted trousers and pearl jewelry, giving her laid-back look a more sophisticated touch.
