Ask the MB: Cardigans

Ask the MB: Cardigans
Q: How do you feel about cardigans?
--Peter

A: Cardigans are everywhere this year but don't let that keep you from wearing them. They're timeless. One strong suggestion, however: find one that's on the short side, and slim (bottom). The majority out there are droopy, longer ones that have a very un-MB shortening effect.
