Sweater Nellie Cotton Creme

Round neck sweater individually knitted upon order in family owned workshops in Spain where we live. Our production time is 3 to 4 weeks.

Our NELLIE sweater offers an innovative design that stands out from the rest of our collection. Its following the idea of a more modern item reminiscent of jersey cotton sweaters. A very comfortable cotton knit. An extra-soft sweater that can be worn all year round. 3/4 length sleeves.

Style note: It has a fairly short, boxy silhouette that can be worn tucked in or over jeans. NELLIE can be worn next to the skin or with a collared shirt underneath for a more chic look.

The detail we like the best: The striped knit combined with the sleeves and body with a large elastic stitch make it a sophisticated yet comfortable and modern garment.

A timeless piece of quality to wear, wear again and pass on.

In French, L'Envers means the opposite, the reverse. "Faire les choses à l'envers" means doing things in a different way, offering an alternative to fast fashion. This is what L'Envers stands for. They believe in consuming less, and when you produce, things are made in a better way; in consciously, carefully and slowly.

Ethically produced: Since 2015, all items have been knitted in small family workshops in Spain and France, home of founder Julie and her family. In this country where fast fashion prevails, they wanted to give a voice to local artisans specializing in sustainable knitwear, who have suffered from the relocation of the textile industry to Asia.

Eco-friendly:  The knitwear is made from natural and fair Merino, Yak -, Mohair, and Alpaca wool and the brand also uses organic cotton and organic hemp.

Locally produced:  the items are all locally made in Europe.
