Features + Fit
- Crafted from organic cotton and knit in a tuck stitch
- Oversized fit
- Slightly cropped length
- This style is designed for a relaxed fit. To achieve this look, we recommend taking your normal size.
- Size down one to two sizes for a closer fit. Note that sizing down will shorten the sleeves and hem.
- Size up one size for a roomier fit and more length in the hem. Note that upper sleeve will fit more generously.
Measurements are taken from the garment pattern with bust, waist, hip and hem shown in full circumferences. Minor variations may occur due to fabric and construction. Please use these as a guide.

GARMENT CARE
Every Kowtow piece is made to last. And with a little care, they’ll live even longer. To ensure longevity and minimise the impact on the environment, we recommend only washing your garment when necessary - air or steam to refresh between wears.
- Cool gentle machine wash (30° or lower)
- Dry flat in shade
- Do not iron
- Do not soak or bleach
- Low tumble dry
Spot clean where possible or machine wash on a cool, delicate cycle and lay flat in the shade to dry.
Storage
To keep our knitwear in top condition, fold rather than hang to avoid stretching and be mindful of rough surfaces or jewellery that could snag the fabric. Store away from direct sunlight to avoid fading.
