The Chelsea Poncho is a portrait of ethereal warmth, a piece where fiber and air are woven as one. Presented in a luminous Black Melange, it is meticulously crafted from a sumptuous blend of Superfine Alpaca, a fiber cherished for its almost weightless softness and gentle warmth. Its soul lies in the technique: a delicate, openwork knit that creates a beautiful, lace-like transparency, allowing the piece to breathe and drape with an unstudied grace. The effortless, closed-poncho silhouette, with its clean round neckline and soft, short sleeves, makes it the quintessential piece for the intentional woman—a timeless, artisanal layer that adds a touch of Peruvian heritage to any look. The Story of This Garment: Material: Sourced from the Peruvian Andes, our Superfine Alpaca is a sustainable fiber, revered for its cloud-like softness and thermal properties, offering warmth without weight. The "melange" yarn creates a nuanced, sophisticated color. Artisanship: The delicate openwork pattern is a testament to the skill of our artisan partners in Lima, a modern interpretation of traditional knitting techniques that requires precision and a light hand. Design: Inspired by the idea of a "weightless embrace," this closed-poncho design is a versatile, four-season layer, offering the luxury of alpaca in a light, breathable form. Size & Fit ONE SIZE. Designed for a fluid, generous drape that fits all silhouettes. Model is 5’10” (175 cm) and is wearing the One Size. Details & Care Fabric: 89% Superfine Alpaca, 11% Recycled Polyamide.
